Come spring/summer you'll see just how much I love these shoes; they're super comfy, have a slight wedge and I've literally walked miles in them with no problem! I also love them for the simplicity, which allowed me the get a little creative and re-purpose old ear-rings as shoe clips!
To recreate this you'll need:
1. a pair of shoes, regardless of height, color, or material. You just need them to have a not too thick of an edge (or else the earrings won't clip)
2. clip on earrings! I suggest you take a little stroll down to your local thrift store and search through the most inexpensive jewelry (that's where I found these ones for only $1.99) that no is likely to wear as is. (I should've snapped a picture of these on my ears, they're HUGE!)
And all you have to do is snap'em on your shoes! DONE :)
Here's another example, using vintage earrings from the 60's (courtesy of my lovely grandma):
Thoughts?
This is adorable. It's actually a brilliant idea--I'd be afraid I'd lose one of the earrings off, though. Now you've got me all curious to see what kinds of things I can do with my shoes.

Thanks Sarah!:) I actually tried this back in the fall when I dared show my toes outside (winter here is just not letting go!) and the earrings stayed on the whole time, until I took one of my shoes off and then one of them slipped off...but I was home already and it was no big deal. So I guess, as long as I keep my shoes on outside, these babies should be staying on too!;) I'll keep u posted, haha
