Wooo! It’s Friday!
I hope you had a wonderful week! It’s not very often that I’m able to attend events but yesterday, I drove down to LA for a blogger lunch at Laduree. My husband and I are a huge fan of macarons and make it a point to get them every time we’re down there. I’ve been dying to try their lunch menu and it definitely didn’t disappoint…and I’m pretty sure I had way too many sweets haha! Anyway, today I’m talking about how you can design your own shoes with this post!
HOW TO DESIGN YOUR OWN SHOES

I don’t know about you but being able to design my own pair of shoes is a dream come true! When you’re shoe shopping, it’s hard to find a pair that is absolutely perfect. Sometimes the heel is too high or maybe it would look better with a few alterations. Luckily, with this post, you can design your shoes exactly how you want them! They have so many different styles available including various heel, flat, sneaker and boot designs. You can choose everything from the shoe style and heel height to the material and color. You may remember the boots I designed from this post (I even took them with me to NYFW!). With warmer weather on the horizon, I decided to design a sandal that would pair well with everything.
I decided on this gorgeous tie up style and choose a block heel for my base. I was going back and forth between a bright pink and this blush nude for the color but ended up going with the blush nude since it’s a bit more versatile. The material is actually velvet, which I was initially unsure of for the season, but I think it works and adds a luxe element. I chose blush nude leather for the insole along with a splash of light pink and also added an inscription on the insole that reads “Pink is always a good idea” …(you know, just in case I forget haha!).
I love that Shoes of Prey allows you to personalize and design your own shoes for a one-of-a-kind style. Plus they offer extended shoe sizes including US 2 through 15 and in narrow, wide and extra wide in most styles.

First, your outfit is beautiful as always. Love the delicate look and the pearls! Those shoes are beautiful, very well done! I would probably design a block heel too..

Thanks so much Jess!
Well I had no idea such a thing existed. Cool! I think you made the right choice going with the blush and velvet combo. I bet you’ll end up reaching for them frequently. I’m pretty sure if I tried to design my own shoes, my head would explode. I’m way to indecisive to make that many decisions about my own shoes…LOL. Love them!
Haha! I probably designed like five pairs before I decided. I’m pretty indecisive too lol!
This is such a cool idea!!
Designing my own shoes is a total dream of mine! Yours look great, and very “you”! Also, I’m cohosting a linkup today too—please stop by if you can!

Thanks so much Elsie! I had no idea you were in LA! I will definitely give you a heads up next time I head down there. Would love to meet up!
Your outfit is so dreamy and that purse is amazing!!!
No way! I had no idea that it was this easy to make a custom pair of shoes. These are so totally you, and I want to give it a try!!
Love the tie up details and the color of the shoes. Your design is really quite stunning!

OMG absolutely love your shoes! Had no idea customizing your shoes from scratch can be so easy! And this pretty dress against the bougainvillea background is just so pretty!
