DIY Red Soles

My latest DIY project: As some other bloggers I bought the lace sling-back pumps from Zara this season and I really like them. The price is great and they look sexy, elegant and are quiet comfy for a 10cm heel. The only thing I didn’t like was the sole which made them look a bit cheap and boring.

As shoes normally cannot be changed to much except for getting a used look, I like to give them the Louboutin touch by painting the soles with red nail polish. A perfect DIY project!

I chose a dark nail polish from P2 last forever called dating time, and needed half a bottle. The important parts are the borders in the front and the area around the heel.

Paint them in straight lines and two times. The spaces I left free of colour are to protect me from sliding on the street. Nobody normally gets to see this part and if I will say that I use them quite often.

The result: 40€ Zara heels + 2€ nail polish = DIY elegant black pumps with Louboutin touch.

With soles like those every outift gets this extra bit of sexy it needs and they definitely have and effect on your look.
