To hide such beautiful feet behind such ruffle is so bails-es. no the less i admire ur effort. Such feet!! mercy!
I love this look and the attach/detach feature is terrific. But I have 2 questions:
1. Just how are you attaching the ribbons to the strappy sandals?
2. I'm also wondering how the ruffle might attach to shoes which are not
open-toe. Any thoughts on this?
