I hope you had a great weekend! </i><i>If you read my blog on regular basis, I am sure you are well aware of my obsession with shoes and I think, I've also mentioned before that one of my biggest dreams is to some day design a shoe collection of my own. So, you can imagine my excitement when I was approached by <b><a href="http://bit.ly/1hBiCff" target="_blank">Shoes Of Prey</a></b>, a website that allows you to design your own custom shoes, to create my very own design! </i><br /><a name="more"></a><i>I have to admit that the design process was completely addictive, with so many shoe shapes, leathers, fabrics and colors to choose from, I spent countless hours playing around the 3D Designer. </i><br /><i><br /></i><i>I started by selecting the shape of the shoe (you can choose between ballet flats, stilettos, sandals, oxfords and wedges). Since I am completely addicted to high heels, for me it was between stilettos and high heel sandals. And with Summer right around the corner, I figured a cute pair of strappy sandals is just what the doctor ordered:) </i><br /><i><br /></i><i>Once I selected the shape of my shoes, I started playing with leathers, fabrics and colors (170 in total to choose from). As you know, I absolutely love bright colors and color blocking in particular. So, after playing around with a few different color options, I decided to go with a beautiful cobalt blue. Since I wanted the blue to be the focal point of this design, instead of adding another bright color, I chose to pair it with black and white. I also wanted to play around with a few different textures, which is why I opted to combine leather, suede and fish skin together. I think this combination adds richness and depth to the design. What do you guys think? </i><br /><i><br /></i><i>The best part of this whole experience, aside from the design process of course, was opening the box and finally seeing my design come to life! I am so happy with the way they turned out. Fun, bright and comfy, they are exactly what I had had in mind for Summer. So, I suppose I should warn you in advance, you are definitely going to be seeing quite a bit of them on this blog! Hope you don't mind!:)</i><br /><i><br /></i><i>P.S. If you are just as obsessed with shoes as I am and/or have a soft spot for custom made heels, head over to <b><a href="http://bit.ly/1hBiCff" target="_blank">shoesofprey.com</a></b> to design your perfect pair! </i><br /><i><br /></i><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
