Pimp my (old) shoes...kindergarten style!

Ever since Miu Miu presented it's glitter-loaded collection about a year ago, 

glittered had invaded the (fashion) world. 

Glitter-related DIY's started to pop up all round the blogosphere. 

So I decided to give it a try and revive and old pair of flats I had lying around. 

It's a no brainer, seriously a three-year-old could do it, and the result is great. 

This are the steps I followed...illustrated. 

(see, even the steps are kindergarten style!)

And here are some pictures of the process..

 Mixing up the paste...

 Adding the paste... (though this was my second layer)

The paste starting to dry up...

And finally, this is how it looks. Just scrap off the rough edges and excess. 

Also, here are a couple other DIY's that inspired me! 

a pair + a spare  and wobisobi

(both blogs have great DIY's!)

Pimp your shoes just in time for no-more-boots season...

easy peasy! 

Orange Choos

Just an orange Jimmy Choo sandal. 

I've been into orange and turqoise lately, and the both of them together. 

Hope you like it.

les litas!

My newest illustration: a pair of turquoise litas by Jeffrey Campbell.

I'm craving so badly for a pair of litas. And even when I'd love them in black I have to be realistic and buy shoes that aren't black. Most of my heels are black. 

Turquoise would be the perfect choice. 

Or maybe a pair of glitter ones.

(sighs and throws a bill into the piggy bank)

I'm opening an Etsy store very soon to sell prints of my illustrations.

Keep tuned!
