Fancy Shoes for Cheap

Cheap is my favorite adjective for a price. For any of you soon to be brides, or for anyone who going to attend any sort of party, or for anyone who wants to have a killer pair of shoes for a party they may get invited to, pay attention. I'm going to tell you how I landed my pretty shoes.

Step 1: Buy a lovely, but plain pair of shoes for cheap. You can scout Ebay (where I found mine), Etsy, discount stores, etc. Here are some finds that I dug up in about 30 seconds:

Anne Klein White Satin Pumps



Silver Satin Peep Toes




Step 2: Scout for a pair of shoe clips or clip on earrings at Etsy (where I found mine), Ebay, estate sales, thrift stores, etc. These are some darling ones I've favorited on Etsy:

Vintage Shoe Clips from Fanny b Creations



Aquamarine Rhinestone Fur or Shoe Clips by Uncommon Vintage



Tiptoe Rectangular Clips by Smelly Shoes Vintage


Step 3: Clip the clips on your shoes. Seriously. It was THAT easy.

My shoes went from "eh . . ." to "whoa momma!" in 3.2 seconds. One of my favorite parts about going this route is that I can keep my shoe clips and add on the sparklies to any of my other shoes, just as often as I fancy. Vintage shoe clips, they're a good thing.

Are you adding some DIY flare to your bridal shoes?
