Pink Painted Shoes

Pink Pink


First pink shoes are these gorgeous 1960's pointed toed beaded and sequin high heel shoes I got at an estate sale once where the lady had all glamorous clothes from the late 1950's and early 1960's which I have always liked and coveted.
These had a dress to match with same beads and I didn't pick it up because it was so small however I knew  I was not going to ever wear them I just hang them in my studio Oh well one of those things you left behind you wish you had gotten at an estate sale
                                                             

All leather and gorgeous
                                                                             

Reminds me of Doris Day  Hollowood days back when in the old movies they always dressed so matchy matchy which I still love. I bet she had silky pink evening gloves to match also

Another remembrance of the studio playing days. I did a post once on a pair of vintage high heels I picked up at a yard sale once they had the old 1960's era look pointed toes and kitten heels however  not a bright enough  pretty color. I was painting furniture and chairs in the studio so thought why not these shoes. I just love the bubble gum pink paint I had.

                                                     
After pink paint and fancy shoe clips
                                                                 
                                               

 This is the before picture of course before my talent of painting shoes. I made them new insoles from an old calendar page
                                                                               

      Isn't these shoe clips just fabulous ? I have loved rhinestones since I was a teenager. I have a collection of vintage shoe clips also and not ready to part them just yet . Well maybe for a big price $$$ LOL              

                                                                               



You have to agree they are prettier now

  2. I love both pair of shoes! The first have such delicate bling! And the second, well, you certainly made them look a lot better! I love rhinestones and shoe clips, also. I pick them up when I see them at flea markets, etc. to use in my jewelry making.

  3. I wish I could wear all those pretty shoes. I miss wearing fancy heels. If I could wear heels....there's no way I would wear those big old things they are selling now. LOL. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

  6. I love these. It would have been hard passing up the matching dress for the first pair, but at least you have these beauties. The shoe clips are stunning and perfect with the pretty pink color. Thanks so much for sharing these at Vintage Inspiration Party.

  15. Painting those shoes makes a wonderful display and like how you lined them. Very creative. I don't know how we were able to wear those crazy pointed-toe shoes. Glad I don't have to anymore.
