I'm slowing down on the shoes as I'm buying way too much shit lately.

So instead, I took a pair of velvet shoes I bought a few weeks ago and gave them a face lift. I was bored one night. Anyway, I like the way they turned out...much more glittery in person.

Big difference, eh?

I might actually wear them now.

the shoes look good

but glitter should be fucking outlawed

and possession punishable by death

or by rubbing your nose in it

Nice job, what did you use for adhesive? Did regular glue do the trick?

I used spray adhesive, then added a coat of black glitter, than another spray and added silver glitter than another 2 coats of adhesive over top and let them dry for a couple of days.

The glitter is sealed in there and does not fall off, which it not what I expected at all.

I'd glitter anything if it was possible. I love black glitter.

I was wondering if I should also do the platform right under the peep toe or leave as is.

Are they velvet or suede?

It might ruin them by coming out clumpy.

I think glittering up the platform would be over kill.

Velvet. The have a wrap hidden platform so you would only see it peaking out right under the peep toe area. The heel was velvet as well.

But I agree with painted... it might be too much, and you won't be able to "undo"

I was thinking the same...that's why I left as is. But also I'm curious to see what it would look like.

I'll leave them the way they are. I can always do it later if I want.

You all enjoy your evening...

It's the "Boardwalk Empire" season finale.

I went to Dollar General and got some 8.00 fake keds.....

Not so much glitter for me but I have been known to rock sequined palazzo pants with flip flops and a Gap T-Shirt! Love them.

I'm so uninspired..no shoes have caught my eye that I'm dying for right now.

Vicini S/S '11 has one black & white sandal that I like for next year, but I can't find a pic of it

That's how most of the fall has been for me. That's why I thinki I'ma focus on growing my collection of Tribute sandals in different colors.

I ordered these saturday while I was at work! I wanted the black pair as well but when I went to my shopping cart they were out of my size! Cant wait to get them!
