Happiness is online ‘window shopping’ the Barney’s website and daydreaming that it’s all soon going to reside in my closet. But when I saw these ~$600 gold glitter ankle boots I knew they could be mine…with a quick makeover from an old pair I already owned. I’ve already glittered heels so I knew these would be just as easy. Some helpful hints I’ve learned (the hard way): do your glittering outside so excess can fly away. {hello sparkly neighborhood!} Also, stuff your shoes with something while making them sparkly- so glitter doesn’t get stuck inside, which will inevitably end up on your feet when wearing them. Finally, do a final sealing spray coat of gloss. Although really, there could be worse things than leaving a trail of glitter behind you.
*Side note-the sweet Anna of See Jane was working on her diy gold glitter boots the same time I was! {Special thanks to ac and cc for the photography!}

Hey, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine
but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some
overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick
heads up! Other then that, wonderful blog!
