BOWED


I got myself a pair of comfy, basic sandals (as comfy as one can get when wearing flats is out of the question - as a matter of fact I don't even find all-flat shoes that comfy, they are somehow too flat for my foot) for everyday use but first I had to pimp them a little bit (of course); I glued on a couple of bows that I made from two ribbons. Done it before and it always works.

They turned out really colorful so now it feels like  I'm walking around with a tiny carnival on my feet!

Psst. I'm putting up some shoes for sale on my auction site!

i just got some cute flats with bows but i have to say it had NEVER occurred to me to just add my own in a cute contrasting color. you're a genius :D

I have made just the same trick for my sandals a few weeks ago. Without the bows I wouldn´t have used the shoes at all :)

Good work!

They're gorgeous! I'm surprised to hear you'll be giving them up.

Those are tre' cute! You did a wonderful job.

I can't really wear all flat shoes either. They tend to make my calves hurt.

Have a great day, my dear, and enjoy your purchase.

What a great idea, I also enjoying adorning my shoes with extra embellishment - I use assorted earrings, chop the backs off and stick these on.

I can never find flats that don't feel too scratchy/uncomfortable on my heel or by my toes. I don't mind wearing heels most of the time, though.

These shoes you pimped are great. I never would have guessed that they didn't come like that. I wish I could buy a pair!

Miriam Parkman said...

Haha I completely agree -flat shoes are too flat!
It's so nice to see someone else also buying this kind of shoes for "everyday use":)
