New Shoes!




The other day, I was sitting at my computer reading fashion blogs. Some may say, I was daring to open Pandora's Box. Due to my tight budget (thank you wedding coming up) this was not a wise idea. Surfing the fashion blogs, while the thoughts running through my head were- oh the beautiful purses, I need those shoes, ruffles, i love ruffles. Lately, I have convinced myself to wear all the clothes in my closet. In an effort to save money and to stop buying new stuff all the time.

Thank you to Green Wedding Shoes. This was just what I needed as I continue on my love for everything in my closet before I bring new things in.

The shoes I used were a pair of black Nina shoes I bought at Dillard's three years ago. I never wore them because they were too plain for my taste. NOW, I can't wait to wear them since the upgrade!

I didn't have clear fishing wire but I used thread the same color as the fabric instead. Worked out perfectly for me!
