Shoesday Tuesday - a spot of DIY - got some shoes you never... use? Turning some unworn "glove" shoes into a wearable leopard classic pump.

I loved these shoes when I first saw them! But I quickly forgot about them as you do... 

Then one day I spied them ON-SALE at Topshop and just HAD to have them...

However, the Vamp is cut so high it's unflattering so I never wear them. I figured I had nothing to lose and decided to take to them with my sharp sewing scissors...

It was almost too easy.  I think they look a little less grandma now.


A few brands have picked up this silhouette, I like it on other people but for me it was just too granny-ish and un-wearable.

I think they look much better now.
What do you guys think?

Obviously if these WERE Celine I would never cut them but as they were not being worn I thought I'd try some DIY.

Would you guys attempt to redesign any of your shoes?
