Found them at Eurodif. Form is perfect. Now, I need to find how to cover them...

Pretty ! I surrendred to the pointy-toe-shoe-demon recently too, but I love the two pairs I got too much to cover them... Must go back to the store and buy some unwearable color, like gold... or a camo pattern ;)

I only bought them for dressing up. I thought for two seconds of buying a pirate-skulls-pattern pointy shoes, but I couldn't resolve myself :))

To make it look good you have to remove the sole so my advice is to buy a fabric you like and then go to a shoemaker.

I would go to a shoemaker if I this shoes were to be everyday shoes, but there are just for dressing up. So if I wore them 2 or 3 times, it will be a maximum. And I want to try covering shoes myself, without doing as far as removing the sole.

But thank for the advice : any advice coming from who made herself a pair of shoes is like god's advice for me :)))
