hem length

hi! did anyone change into flats and get their dress hemmed for the height of the flats instead of the heels you wore? or did you just get your dress hemmed shorter so your shoes could be visible?

if so, could you post pics?
thank you!

honeymoon preliminary itinerary check; spain and france

hi! we’re getting married in sevilla in may and are trying to narrow down where to visit for our honeymoon
on a previous trip, we visited sevilla, granada, madrid, and ronda. we would like to visit france as well.

*days 1-5: sevilla
*days 6-11: thinking of flying from sevilla to mallorca and island hopping (but also open to skipping it and traveling to catalonia)
*days 12-17: provence france- avignon as base
*days 18-20: paris

we were originally interested in barcelona and the surrounding areas, but after 5 days of wedding events, we feel it may be too busy? we like how we can just fly from sevilla to mallorca and then from mallorca to marseille. paris is only on the list so we can get a direct flight back home
please let me know if you have any “can’t miss” spots or if you don’t think the balearic islands are worth it and would choose the barcelona area over them

thank you!!! :)

honeymoon recs

hi! we are getting married in sevilla in may next year and are planning our honeymoon which will be a total of 2 weeks after our wedding. we have been to madrid, sevilla, granada, and ronda on a previous trip.

we were originally thinking to go from sevilla - madrid - and then barcelona/surrounding areas. but we are now interested in menorca and the other balearic islands.

we want something laid back after the buzz of the wedding, we love food, history, and architecture.

we are also visiting the south of france after spain

do you have any recommendations or places that we should avoid?

we greatly appreciate your help!

hi! i’m planning on getting a pair of jimmy choo slingbacks that i can only find online. i went to a department store to try on a similar style in both a 38 (my true size) and 38.5. unfortunately, they did not have 38.5 available :(
the 38s were perfect lengthwise, the slingback didn’t slip off, but i could definitely feel my toes (i mean the toe is pointed so that’s a given…)
i am worried that after all the wedding activities and hours wearing, my feet will swell slightly and the 38s will become uncomfortable?
also… the 38.5s online are $300 cheaper than the 38s…. will this size difference be negligible in order to save $300 or should i just buy the 38s

currently torn between an everyday tennis necklace or bracelet and trying to narrow it down! i wear both necklaces and bracelets everyday - so narrowing it down that way doesn’t really help :/
show me your stacks/share styling tips/etc :)
