Continuing my LBD news... I bought shoes yesterday. I got these in black:

Ruffled Mary Jane pump, on sale $34, Newport News (link)

I'd like to apologize for not adhering to the poll results -- I hadn't planned on buying shoes with a strap, but once I saw these, I couldn't stop thinking about them. I told Madeline of Uber-Chic for Cheap about them so that she could do a Look for Less (they look so much like these ruffled Mary Janes from J. Crew), thinking that that would be the last I ever saw of them. However, after I saw her post, I decided I had to have them and bought them right away. Those ruffles around the heel are luscious, and they were such a good deal! I'm really excited about getting them!! If it were in the budget, I'm pretty sure I would buy them in pink and gray as well...

As an added bonus, check out this confirmation e-mail I got from Newport News (click to enlarge):


That's right, they said that I "have a fabulous sense of style," which is always nice to hear. ;)

Also, I'm going in to the tailor for a fitting today -- wish me luck!
