put the giant flowers on your SHOES


I am so digging these vintage linen shoe clips* by b. poetic.

You can snap em up in red and white from her Etsy store (or put in a custom order).

And be sure to check out her blog.


*A rad alternative to, you know, putting the damn flower on your head.

  2. YUM. Of course finding exactly the right shoes to affix them to could be... tough. But if I can just do that... hum.

  5. I love it.
    I've been eying these vintage cockade pins (for shoes) on etsy lately. Lets move past the headgear please.

  6. I made my own fabric flower shoe clips for my wedding coming up this weekend. I was pretty set on getting yellow shoes with flowers on them but the only ones I could find to buy were around $100+ so this was an excellent affordable option. Also, now I can take them off and use them to spruce up other pairs of shoes too.

  7. Those shoes would make me feel like an elf, but in a good way.

  8. I love this idea! Would be the perfect way to spruce up shoes that I already own, yet make them feel new again. Of course, I could always use new shoes...

  15. Yup, love 'em. I'd have to wear them every day, in fact. An excuse to take up salsa dancing?

  16. I just purchased a pair of red Steve Madden pumps with flowers on the toes and I love them! It's a great style! Thanks for sharing these clips.

  18. Clipping flowers to your shoes can put life back into any old pair as large roses and other flowers can easily hide any scuffs and marks.

  19. Alot of brides where I am from don't like to spend much money on their wedding shoes. I need some of these for my shop and they won't need to buy new shoes at all! Plus I have beef with 'Bridal Shoes'. Not my fav.

  20. Some Day, in the Distant Future, I will be as cool as you. Until then, I shall remain here -- lurking in the shadows, ogling & taking notes ...

  21. Pretty shoe clips seem to be very popular these days -- i love how they can transform a pair of shoes into a completely different look.
