The Rock Ferry!
So, I just got yet another pair of new shoes. I know. So many shoes. But, really, I can't help it! I'm obsessed! And I have to stock up before I have to curb my shopaholic tendencies all together for college. Anyway, I found these on ebay and made the seller an offer of $50, which she accepted! I was soooo excited. They've only been worn twice and are in fabulous condition. When I got them in the mail, I tore the package open and fell in love. They're of such nice quality and so gorgeous in person. Plus they fit my legs perfectly too! The only con is that they are really high and angled really high so they are actually just as if not more challenging than my heel less mary janes to walk in. I'm going to get some gel pads to put in the front to help however.
Anyway, what do you all think of them? They're definitely crazy. Just the way I like them! :)
PS- Sorry I have been MIA for a bit-sooo much stuff to do before graduation!

Just Another Fashion Magazine
My floral pantsuit was featured in a new iPad fashion magazine! I don't have an iPad, but if I did, I definitely would download this magazine because it seems so cool. The magazine is called "Just Another Fashion Magazine," and more information can be found on it here: http://www.justanotherfashionmagazine.com/
I was featured in the street style section as seen in these screenshots:
Anyway, I just got two pairs of new shoes in the mail recently. I just posted a look with one of the new pairs, and I instagramed a photo of the other pair (@sewinginstilettos), but here are pictures of each of them:
The black pair is from gojane.com. I think they're sold out now, but keep checking back as they often restock and they have a bunch of other awesome styles and colors! You can also check urbanog.com or makemechic.com. And, as for the white pair, I got them on Ebay!
I've been super busy with school and making graduation dresses and stuff for my online shop lately. Can't wait to move to New York in two months, but I have so much to do before then. :)

DIY Bedazzled Glitter Sneakers!
So, some may think these are the ugliest sneakers ever...but if I am going to wear sneakers, I want a fabulous pair, and I think these fit into the fabulous category! :) If you like them, you can make your own pair by gluing the gems on, painting on a mixture of glitter, glue, and water, and adding sparkly ribbon laces!
For more information on how to add the gems, visit my DIY Bedazzled Haus of Price Inspired Shoes post: http://sewinginstilettos.blogspot.com/2012/01/diy-haus-of-price-bedazzled-shoes.html
As for the glitter part, it is super easy! Just mix in a bowl about half and half of water and glue (I used Elmer's glue all). You can also use Modge-Podge, but I think glue and water is cheaper. Once you have your mixture, add LOTS of glitter until the mixture looks like a glitter paint. Then just paint it on your shoes. Let it dry when you're done with your first layer for about an hour or so before applying the next layer. I used about 3 layers. When you are done with the glue, use a clear spray paint to seal the glitter. Try not to get the paint on any of the gems as it might make them less shiny.
I got my sparkly ribbons from JoAnns, but I think you could get them at any craft store! Make sure you get the ones that don't have wire in them. Also, so you seal the ends after you have cut them with clear nail polish.
Are you going to try this? If so, I also recommend using a stronger glue for the gems than the cement glue I used, because on the sneakers, since they bend a lot, a couple gems came off when I wore them. However, you can always glue them back on, too! :)
