I had coveted them online prior to our trip, and was blown away by the difference in price between Australia and the US. So it would have been rude to only buy one pair, right? I have worn the other pair a few times but have kept the high tops in mint condition.
After I said yes to my dress, I had to consider the shoes I would wear for the big day. I knew for sure that I did not want to tower over my groom and so mega high heels were out. Not to mention, I did not want to have to switch out a glamorous pair of heels for a more practical pair of pluggers for the evening's festivities. I am greatly anticipating dancing with my friends and family and would prefer to do this in comfort.
I trawled ebay and etsy, looking for a cool pair of kitten heels. I found quite a few superhero themed shoes, but ranged in price from about $80 to over $200. Being the tight arse that I am, I could not justify spending this kind of money on shoes, no matter how awesome they were.
However, I was inspired by the shoes on etsy. I had considered how I could recreate them myself, for cheaper. Then it hit. My mint condition Wonder Woman Cons! There are a nod to Wonder Woman, I already have them, they are flat and comfy!
My decision has been met with mixed responses from my friends, but I figure they will not be seen under my dress and there is very little that is conventional about our big day, so why should my shoes be?
