Forever21 - cheap shoe accessory

For $5.80, you can change the look of your shoe (and outfit!). I saw shoes like this in Korea, except that the rosettes were sewn on. I clipped these on today, and it totally changed my outfit. I love gold accents. I think they're elegant, and sophisticated. These aren't too over the top for the workplace too :) To change it up, you could clip it on to the back of the shoe, or maybe on the side right below the ankle. Or clip on to a purse? lol. Right now, Forever 21 only has 2 styles of shoe clip-ons, but hopefully other stores will follow suit and make some too! A pink bow would be nice ^_^

Also, any girls wear size 5 or smaller? These shoes here are Nine West size 5, but I had to insert a rubber thing, and there's still a gap :( I don't know where to buy shoes!! Help!!
(p.s. I felt REALLY weird taking pics of my feet in my office haha.. esp since my cam phone makes noise!)

(p.p.s I'm tweeting now, lol http://twitter.com/kechiko)

  2. that's cool. And you're size 5 for shoes?! Man everytime i see shoe clearance they only have size 5 and size 9 and over, never my size! And lol i take pics at the office all the time too, but it's not as weird for me i guess since I work for a cellphone compnay, so i can be a creeper with the cell phone camera lol

  6. whoa! that's a really cool accessory i haven't heard about. rubber thing? do tell! i need to do that to my shoes too ... goodness knows us small-feet darlings need smaller shoes!

  7. I DO totally relate to having small feet! I am also size 5 -- some girls can pull off 5 and 1/2 but I can't at all... I really like Nordstrom Rack - they have shelves and shelves full of size 5 shoes! Target actually has some good size 5 shoes too. I am too scared to buy shoes online because even in size 5, they might not fit!

    I do like those shoe clips - instant new shoes! I would love pink bows too hehe...also, your tights are super cute!

  13. That's really interesting...shoe clip-ons? Never heard of those before. I must go to Forever 21's website and check this out. Thanks for the heads up!

    I hate how when you try to take a picture discreetly... your phone makes a noise and gives it away. UGH. But the picture came out really nice.

  16. Hello Sophia!! thanks for the music, I love the Late Night Alumni youtube link that u sent me. This song just woke me up from my tiring holidays in Bangkok and flat hunting in Singapore..

    Am listening to Samantha James right now as I' writing this... :D

    Gosh, didnt know that F21 sell shoe clip ons now. I know where to get them now when I'm bored of my plain black working shoe :)

  17. your shoe clip ons look so cute! it totally makes a plain pair of pumps look prettier :)

  18. Haven't heard that type of shoe accessory til now. I agree, they surely added an oomph to your shoes.

    Lots of love,

  20. Omigosh! I actually just ordered some shoe clips from eBay last week. Didn't realize they could be found at F21. They were more expensive on eBay (about $8-$12) but there were lots of choices. I bet this would be an easy DIY, I just don't know what kind of clips to shoes that won't damage the shoe leather.
