Wedding Shoes!

This morning, July 7th, 2009 is Michael Jackson's Memorial service. And while I do believe he was an artist with talents we will probably never see again in our life times, I think some of this is a little over the top. I'm glad I wasn't born with the gene that made me "star struck" or have the desire to spend thousands of dollars and travel thousands of miles to "honor" someone I have never met. Not to mention, be packed next to the other 10000 looney tunes that will be attending the memorial....well, enough about that.

Today I met Bettina and Zoe at Nordstrom. I met them last week at the Fashion Mall to see a movie at the Keystone Arts Cinema. We saw "Easy Virtue". After the movie, we went into Nordstrom to look around and check out the shoe department. While up in the "designer" section, Bettina asked about sales and the fall selections. Rachel, the sales lady, was eager to tell Bettina about an upcoming private event for which she could sign up. So, Bettina signed she and I up for this private event so that we could see the fall fashions and purchase them at a whopping 40% off. 40% off of a $400 skirt still isn't gonna make me buy. That's a car payment! Well, then we went down to the shoe department. Nordstrom's typically has a great shoe selection and I was without shoes for the wedding. We found 2 pair of shoes that we both really liked, so I put them on hold so that I could bring the dress back to the store and we could compare the colors. The pair that Bettina bought me are so pretty. When I get batteries in my old camera, I will take a picture of them and post it.
