Glad that the dresses are going to work out for you. can't wait to see the pics! Claire's boutiques usually have quite a bit to choose from when it comes to inexpensive sparkly earrings. They have stores everywhere, so I would be suprised if there isn't one near you.

Thanks for the info on Zappos, I had never heard of them before. I will definitely try that the next time I need shoes. (Which my husband says shouldn't be for the next 30 years based on the number of shoes I currently own!)
