DIY Glitter Pumps

February 29, 2012

So glitter shoes are all the rage, especially for proms or formals, but they can dress up any outfit! Which is why the glitter Louboutins are oh so popular, but don’t spend all that cash!

Here’s a quick and easy DIY for Glitter Pumps inspired by the Glitter Louboutins!

What you need:

  • Old pair of heels from Goodwill
  • Glitter
  • Acrylic Glue
  • Sandpaper
  • 2 paint brushes
  • Polyurethane

How to:

  1. Clean the shoe and lightly sand it to help the glue stick
  2. Mix the glitter and glue together
  3. Paint on the glitter and glue to the shoes. Fill in holes with loose glitter.
  4. Wait till dry, then coat with polyurethane to help protect against water!

Voila, glitzy!

Prom and Formal 2012 Trends!

February 27, 2012

This week we are sponsoring a Fashion Show for  Cinderella Day and we’re donating some beautiful gowns to disadvantaged high school girls! We’ve been collecting and we’ve handpicked some great gowns for the fashion show so of course PROM is on our mind! And with the PROM and FORMAL season coming up we’d like to share with you some of the top trends for 2012. We’ll also have a DIY for one of the trends on Wednesday, so be sure to check back then!

1. Detachable Gowns:

I really love the idea behind this type of dress. It’s an evening gown and a mini, 2 dresses in one, allowing versatility; think gown for pictures and dinner, mini for dancing!

2. Ombre Gowns:

So Ombre Hair was a huge hit in 2011 that carried over to 2012 and it doesn’t just stop with hair. We’ve seen ombre shirts, jackets, pants and the likes. So of course we were bound to see Ombre Prom and Formal attire and it’s perfect! No only is it a fun way to wear an evening gown, but you don’t have to decide between colors!

3. Glitter Shoes:

Don’t limit the sparkle to the gown, it’s your special night!  Glitter from head to toe with Glitter shoes! Of course, Christian Louboutin did this best with the Glitter Pump, but on Wednesday we’ll feature an easy DIY for pseudo Louboutin Glitter pumps! : )

What kind of dress do you plan on rocking at your Prom or Formal?

Don’t forget you can donate those old gowns to Goodwill or the Cinderella Day!
