As if I needed a reason to shop #shopaholic but today as I wander through the high-street I came across these beauties!!!!

I am now the proud owner of 5 pairs of Irregular Choice shoes, that’s right I couldn’t choose so today I bought 3 pairs!!!

I’ve loved the Miaow boots for the last 10 years and now I finally have them!!! Cream tick next I need the black!!!

I love Irregular Choice ever since I was a teen peering at them every Saturday!!! I was just talking about them on Monday inspiring my own shoe creations!!! Read Here!!!

Irregular Choice shoes are more like pieces of art than shoes, so detailed. Every aspect of these creations is sooo thought through from the lining and embroidered branding to the soles, fabrics, texture, colours and contrast!!!!

 I got my first pair at 17 and I didn’t want to wear them, I had to protect the soles!!! See perfect, like a precious piece of art!     

                                          

Then 2 years ago I found these sandals, which are a bit big on the ankles but I love them!!     

                      

And now these 3! I am so happy today!!!! Who needs food!!! #SpendingMoreOnShoesThanRent

 

Any other Irregular Choice Addicts out there? Tell me about your collection!!!

Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes ~ Custom Shoes~ Designer Soles

So as you may know I have a little shoe obsession, I keep buying them!!! I have also studied fashion design and like to customise and design under my label Purple Button Couture.

I don’t know how many of you have heard the Paul Simon song "Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes" those strutting around in Louboutins signature red soles might as well have diamonds on the soles of their shoes. And Irregular Choice always have some pretty little pictures on their soles. I was inspired, so I set to work!!!

My Supplies:

·        I got some plain black shoes in Penneys/Primark €15

·        Nail Polish €1.79 Essence

·        Random buttons and beads in Cork Craft Supplies

·        Some old bracelets and hairclips

·        Glue/ my trusty hot glue gun

As I tend to wear a lot of BLACK, these shoes add a nice pop of colour plus anyone who notices the designs on the soles of your shoes is worth talking to!

This is a fairly simple custom shoe project!

 

I simply painted the soles in the colour I had chosen… Purple!!!!

Let them dry and started gluing beads and buttons onto my shoes.

Tah Dah…

 

I linked these into a head piece. We all have scratched sunglasses!!! And I had some left over supplies.

 So instead of throwing out these scratched aviators I simply painted them and added the same kind of buttons and beads and now I have a head piece!!

 

 

What do you think??

Thanks for reading
