Did some shopping today...

[CDNinNYC]

... and I bought my after-party dress and beachy reception shoes. Lemme know what you think!

Those who watched America''s Next Top Model last week might remember this dress....

 

[CDNinNYC]

With my blue suede shoes.

 

[FrekeChild]

Love both of the purchases!!!!And those shoes!!! What are they?

 

[CDNinNYC]

Because we''re having a beach reception I wanted some espadrilles. I didn''t want my shoes to sink into the sand and I also wanted something with height ''cause I know the dress would drag otherwise. I also didn''t want to spend too much in case they got ruined. Here''s my bargain reception shoes!

 

[Dannielle]

I looks great on

I love the top of the dress, its sexy while still appropriate!

 

[CDNinNYC]

One more!

Thanks Danielle and TheBigT!

Hopefully the sandals don''t look too clunky with my wedding dress...

 

[sammyj]

CDNinNYC...you have fabulous taste! I love the dress and both pairs of shoes! I watched ANTM last week but I don''t recognize the dress...obviously I have memory issues or perhaps I was too busy googling wedding stuff while I was watching. Wanna refresh my memory??

I thought so! I hadn''t seen them on feet though, so I wasn''t sure. Love them!!! (I love all blue shoes though I have to confess...)

Here''s a photo of Celia from ANTM in the ''runway'' version of the dress.

I, too, google wedding stuff while watching that show! That dress caught my attention, though.

 

[CDNinNYC]

Freke, you and I are gonna rock those blue suede shoes!

 

[Clairitek]

Wow! I love all of your purchases! That dress is adorable and sexy all wrapped up into one great garment!

 

[FrekeChild]

Ok, so that dress looks 100 times better on you than Celia (who I don''t like anyway!)

 

[Porridge]

Wow, you look a zillion times better that Celia, it''s like a different dress!! It''s gorgeous on you! And the shoes are fab, I love the ruffles. They''re perfectly beach/class!

 

[bee*]

Ah yes! The Jill Stuart runway show! I have to agree with everyone else...you look way better than Celia and she''s one of my favourites. Seriously though, you have amazing taste...I''d love to raid your closet!

CDN, that dress is super cute and flirty! I love both pairs of shoes too, especially the espadrilles! I definitely approve

 

[AmberGretchen]
