~my BOSSY shoes (DIY)...


These shoes are so great, I even got complimented on them by an employee in a Chanel Boutique!  But alas, they've gotten a little blah.  Sooooooo, I decided to break out some upholstery tacks and bedazzle the wedge a bit....



And VOILA!!!  Finished product!  I've gotten my money's worth and more out of these shoes and now for a few bucks, and some thumb pain, I have some BOSSY shoes!!!  (A woman stopped me when I was walking to my office and said, "Oh my gosh!  I LOVE YOUR SHOES!  They are BOSSY!!!!!)  I think it fits!!!

    What a great idea. And I'd like to embellish some of my shoes too but they are all flats.

    I love it! I haven't been into espadrille styles or studs, but I am appreciating your unique and classy combination of the looks!

    This is BRILLIANT! I'm sitting here trying to figure out if I've got any shoes I can put tacks in. I think these turned out fabulously!
