Double wrapped Saturday Shop-a-thon

For all those concerned about my wedding footwear and the wedges verses stiletto heels debate, you may now sleep easy. I found a pair of shoes with a very low stiletto heel, black sandals with simple diamante and black bead across the top of my foot for....wait for it....$20!!! They were in the throw out bin at a shoe store in town here. Clearly the heel was too low for all the fashionable young things. And hey for 20 bucks I can wear them once and throw them out if I want to. I can walk in them also which is a bonus. I will however have to tidy up my feet as they are looking a little worse for wear at the moment. Pedicure time perhaps. Although it's doubtful that my feet will be the centre of attention.

In my travels I also bought some 30% off stuff at everybody's favourite regional clothing store Target (jeans etc). And then I found an absolute bargain grey winter coat for $59 at an "exclusive" boutique (i.e. not a chain store). I can't wait to wear it if winter ever arrives. Also, I found a black wrap to go over my dress. So that's two wraps but one looks like part of the dress and quite frankly if it's freezing cold on July 4 I'll be quite happy to be double wrapped.
