something fierce

Lately I have been seeing a lot of people D.I.Y'ing Christian Louboutin's spikey heels, and apparently it is not very difficult, so it made me want to play with some spikes myself. The real thing is of course incredibly expensive, roughly 1000 $ and probably more for the ones I have on my mind. I think most of the Louboutin heels have some sort of caricatural quality that I'm not sure I'm into. Still, I always feel like I am meeting a celebrity in person every time I see a pair of Louboutins.

I just ordered some studs and spikes and I expect them to arrive in a week or so (I found some really awesome ones, I'm dying to get them!). I am going to decorate some suede wedges (my old suede shoes), they look kinda worn but that is only good I think.

Left: Louboutin for Rodarte - These curved claw spikes are super fierce-looking. A nice variation 

of the regular straight spikes and they are in fact pretty cheap and easy to find.

Right: I have seen these in black too, but I couldn't find a picture of those anywhere, so here are the golden

ones. I don't like how these look all fancy and glittery, though. The black ones are so much tougher!
