Non-Painted Shoes and Shoe Accessories
Written by Miranda on June 29, 2009
Spatz: A type of shoe accessory that covers your ankle and the top half of the front of your feet. They were originally worn as part of military uniforms in the 19th and 20th century and are still worn with some uniforms. (I think the Scotts still wear them but I’ll have to double check that fact.)
Anyway, I got mine online via Etsy but instead of wearing them properly, I rolled the front of the spats back coz I like the way that looked. The combo was very eye-catching and probably not for the faint of heart.
Mohops: Shoes I ordered online. The beauty of these shoes is that they come with a set of ribbons which you can tie any way you like. I went to Dressews to pick up additional ribbons coz I’m really liking neon colors right now. The ribbons I have on are double-sided and I can wear them reversed. I also made an extra piece using white elastic that I placed right in the center to create the T look that’s so big right now. If you like to change your look often and is creative enough to come up with different ways of looping the ribbons, these are the shoes for you~!
Socks: I don’t really understand why people don’t wear socks with their heels. I mean, we wear them with our leggings and our tights, so why not heels? Plus, it saves time for lazy people like me who don’t bother getting a proper pedicure. I happened to come across lace socks the other day after searching high and low for socks I wouldn’t mind showing. I was originally thinking of semi-opaque socks in orange or mustard yellow, but since I haven’t found any yet, I’ll settle for these lace ones from Aldo.
