Description

They used to be this old odourless, tasteless and colourless cream and light blue “Mango” shoes. And while the thought of throwing them in the nearest garbage bin often passed my mind, I eventually decided to give them a little fashion surgery. But what started as a minor attempt of transformation ended up in a total makeover. I dyed them in a navy blue shoe dye, and then sewed the gems on (taken from a tacky Primark bracelet that I took apart) and used a dark brown leather thread to wrap them around my leg. Et voila! The cutest and most unique pair of flats I ever owned!
