Ella, it's YOU!

following up on my last shoe post...i ordered each a pair of the ella and molly to try on as the Karmen was conveniently unavailable...so well, since i need a shoe... i ordered both ella and molly to compare compare...after much deliberation and commentary from my girls...i've decided to go with ella...

my feeling on heels are that it will be uncomfortable no matter how high they are, if you're standing in them for the better part of a day, IT WILL HURT LIKE A MOTHER...call me a sissy, whatever, it will hurt...at least thats the story im sticking with...the height of heel was actually not much of a deciding factor for me...the ella is a little cuter and softer around the edges, just more 'wedding shoe' in my head so i went with her...molly would be a great evening wear shoe though so if i had a ton of disposable income i probably would've kept both pairs...but since i am neither rolling in the dough and one pair of j crew heels are expensive enough i took molly back to the store...j crew is fairly good about returns and shipping when ordered from the store...

ella was a little lower in the heel (many reasoned it would be slightly more comfy...it actually was a little bit more comfortable than molly) and it was slightly cheaper and it's ultra cute...mission wedding shoe accomplished!

next mission break these babies in...if you're good maybe i'll post a photo of me walking around the house with them in a pair of black sweat socks making dinner, HA!

on a totally unrelated note...when i went to jcrew to inquire about my shoes, they gave me a pair of these to try on for size and they are HOT!
J Crew Joley, at $178, these black peep toe patent beauties will be a great shoe for any working or non working woman's wardrobe...i will probably score myself a pair after the wedding.. and as far as heels went, they were very comfortable :)
