ErinaErinaErina · 23-06-2009

so, i posted this earlier, but i forgot to credit the photo, so here goes again...

i altered these pair of square-toed boots to look like the ann demeulemeester lace-up sandal boots. jane from seaofshoes.com has the real ann ds in a few different colors. i've also included mine!

any feedback is appreciated! also, questions are welcome! (the bottom pair in the tan color are via seaofshoes.com and the bottom pair in black, next to the tan pair are via talkprettytome.blogspot.com

Inspired by these shoes from Alexander McQueen Spring 2010,

I decided to take my old French Connection laceups

And shower them with a storm of acrylic paint! As a personal touch, I decided to paint the heels white to provide a clean, crisp contrast to all the chaos going on up top. I was really pleased with the result. Photos:

^I love that!

It doesn't look exactly like the shoes from AMcQ, but it's original all by itself!

izzydore - nice. So you didn't use a primer, or sand them in any way before beginning to paint?

fashionfille · 26-06-2009

hey! ok, so i have a bunch of tulle, but not enough to make a crinoline skirt or anything to that extent. i would really like to make something with it, but i'm just not sure! any suggestions would be fabulous, thanks!

) i posted this in the customization thread also, so if anyone subscribes to that one also, please don't think i'm spamming!

Izzydore, that looks amazing, almost better than McQueen

Aishlinn · 27-06-2009

Izzydore, the colors you chose are amazing!

Sake · 29-06-2009

Izzydore, I think your shoes look even better than Alexander McQueen's!

This thread gave me the adrenaline to make some of the thing that are posted.

There's a blog I often go to, and it really has great ideas, the tshirt with the string sleeves is great. You guys should give it a look.

ErinaErinaErina those shoes are amazing! Where did you find square toe boots to customise?

ErinaErinaErina · 10-07-2009

Hey cicciolina, my mom had this really old pair of square-toed boots she was getting rid of, so I just used them... The Ann D's are more roundish, but it worked out okay!

Izzydore I love those shoes!! They're amazing!
