What shoes do you get most compliments on? Fess up!

These... Miu Miu Peeps in dark green!

I LOVE love love those Miu Miu curved/chunky/flared heels. Am lusting after a pair of nude pumps like this...just need to win the lottery first!
 
Well, amid all these beautiful designer shoes, I just have to share my little DIY project where I color-blocked an old pair of olive sandals with paint. They aren't perfectly done, but man, do I sure get attention! :P

Wow! Fantastic.

What paint did you use?

Brilliant idea!

Thank you! I just used acrylic paint with a coating of acrylic gel gloss overtop. Proper leather dye would be better on the leather part, but I was too impatient :P

Wearing another DIY today with acrylic paint on the upper and decorated paper wrapped around the wood heel. Get more attention with these than my CL's or Miu Miu pumps...in my small town, that is ;)

Seriously, if you're at all inclined, you should start a diy shoe blog. Ive only ever come across one (thats not to say there arent others but its just one I chanced across recently while googling). Stylish and upmarket of course, not the homely diy!
 
My most complimented are definitely my Giuseppe Zanotti's (i've also worn them the most often)

I generally get compliments every single time I wear them, probably because they're so outlandish... but i'm still in love!!

GASP!!! IM OBSESSEDDDD!!!!
:woot:
I have been searching for the spicy sandals for AGES!!!! I first saw them when I was just entering high school and couldn't get them... THEY LOOK AMAZING ON YOU!!!

I'm so jealous!!! :biggrin:
 
those fish bone ones are cool! did you get them recently? i'd love to get a pair!

Yes actually! I searched for years for the heels, but Im a size 41-42... smh :sad:

I got them at farfetch.com! They were on their last size when I bought them, and they were the ones with studs.... the ones listed there must be from a different boutique, because the stock photos have changed and they are without studs.

Much more size availability however!
