Armed with a big wad of cash, I went shopping for a "wedding outfit". This is what I ended up buying:
No dress. No skirt and top. No amazing black and white linen trouser combo. No, I bought shoes.
It wasn't my fault, honest. They lured me into Kenneth Cole. The shoe was in the front window, lit up with this groovy back detailing in black and white which I LOVED instantly and screamed "Buy me! Buy me! You don't need me but I am so pretty!":
I ended up wearing a chocolate brown Mariella Rosarti dress to the wedding and gold hand made shoes from Ruby Sky.
To date, I have never worn the black and white shoes.

Ha! I do this all the time too. Like when I went recently went shopping for going out clothes and ended up buying a biknini instead.
I've had really good luck with Kenneth Cole shoes -- two of my favorite pairs are Kenneth Cole, ballet flats and a pair low wedge heels. Those black and white heels are gorgeous.
I know! It's terrible!
I need a new mantra "Do I need it? Do I need it?" Unfortunately, that just gets replaced by "It is pretty. Yes, I want it. It is pretty. Yes, I want it".
I'm a lost cause.
Hah! I had a friend tell me once, "Don't buy what you need. Buy what you love." It's totally infectious.
