Dress {Check} Shoes {Check}!

Allison Silber September 13th, 2010 by Allison Silber

While I was busy planning the details and trying to forget that I even needed a dress for the wedding, I somehow stumbled across the perfect one! It’s a bit edgy, a bit fun and the exact style I want! I can’t post any pictures here, but I assure you, it’s a totally awesome gown by Melissa Sweet from the upcoming Spring 2011 collection.

I went to the Pricilla of Boston store about 4 times in a week, and yesterday I finally purchased the dress! Ian’s brother and sister came into town on Sunday, so I was able to try on the dress for his sister and his mom. It is being custom fitted to me, we are adding a few buttons and making it a sweetheart neckline. The best part about this whole trip, I got 20% off the dress! It was still rather expensive, but I still feel good about getting a deal!

Somehow I stumbled across the shoes out of nowhere and purchased those as well. The deal?? 75% off! I only spent $200 on this fantastic pair of statement heels.

Can’t wait to wear these babies at the wedding!

I tried on most of these Melissa Sweet dresses. Though they are all gorgeous, there was something was wasn’t wowing me like it was on the dress I choose! Which is your favorite?

And now let’s introduce Melissa Sweet to Christian Louboutin since they will be partnered up on my wedding day. These are a few of the runner-up shoes styles that I was deciding between.

Ok, enough about me! How was everyone’s weekend?? What items did you check off your wedding to-do list?? Try on dresses, finish the favors, send out the invites, tie the knot?? I would love to hear about your weekend.

    YAY! Congrats on the dress and the shoes babe!! So happy for you and so so so looking forward to seeing photos of the wedding already ;)

    I still haven’t started doing anything. I think about it and get too stressed out to start. I want to have an engagement party but I have no money and our parents are out of the picture when it comes to that. See what I mean? STRESS! lol

    Wowzers, the shoes are AMAZING!!! How did you get those for 75% off?? That makes them even more amazing to me. I didn’t even know Loubies go on sale like that! I have actually decided on gold very prive Loubies for my day…this is really hilarious how our tastes overlap (though I have not looked at Melissa Sweet, but more at Amsale and Vera Wang). From the above dresses, I like the second one most. CONGRATS again!! everything is truly coming together!! and if you could share info on where to find Loubies on sale, that would be amazing. :)

    What’s the shoe website? Are they authentic? I want a pair but can’t stomach the original cost of these.
    Thanks!

    I loved the deal on my shoes. From what I can tell, they are totally totally real! I ordered them yesterday. After I get them and ensure they are actually real and the company didn’t steal my credit card or something like that, I will divulge the site! Definitely don’t want everyone to have issues!

    I am so impressed with your shoe savvy! How did you find Louboutins for 200$ ?! I’m still in the market.

    Thanks!
