These Boots Were Made For Studding

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Ever since I saw the studded boots on the Topshop website (not to mention the numerous designers that used them in their AW09 collections), I have been coveting a pair like mad. Sadly I am a) broke as a broke thing and b) a tightwad that refuses to pay £80 for a pair of boots. I just physically can’t hand over that much cash for one item (even though technically boots count as two, I suppose) and I don’t believe in credit cards since I had a little bit of trouble back in my teenage years, that involved a long period of grovelling to the parents.

So once again, I am left to the power of the DIY. After the success of the home-studded bag, I decided to recycle a pair of battered old brown boots that frankly, have been looking a little less than on-trend lately. I’m pretty pleased with the outcome, and even more pleased that I’ve now got yet another pair of ‘new’ shoes.
