Sparkling
I’ve wanted a pair of glittery gold shoes for the longest time. I’d imagined a vintage pair of dancing shoes with a little heel, and watched them come and go on eBay in varying sizes, but never mine. So when French shoemakers Dessine Moi Un Soulier emailed me about the idea behind their website – to create your own unique pair of shoes – I got thinking! I had a little play with some designs (you can pick Brogues as a design too, in everything from suede to metallic, so you can see why I had problems!), before settling on a gold glittering ballet flat, complete with chunky bow and a patent nude edging. I’m in love with them! Of course, they’re not going to be an every day shoe, but come out when something a bit special is required, or when I know I’m going to be dancing ; ) They’re reminiscent of something a Disney princess might wear.
And yes, pouring glitter everywhere for a few photos wasn’t such a great idea. I think I’m going to be sparkling for weeks to come.
Thank you Dessine Moi Un Soulier! x







sooo prettyyy!!! xo
Never in my life love glitter shoes but this shoe is LOVE <3! Great pictures btw!
They are cute and very pretty!
oh my god the gifs are so beautiful! The shoes are amazing, so pretty! x x
These are gorgeous! Such cute photos, and although pouring glitter may now be everywhere it was totally worth it.
I love it. And just love the glitter gif. U have a reader in Rio. yeahhh

They are so perfect, so beautiful!! I love your design!
Just to know… I’m sometime between 2 size, so I don’t know what I should choose if I order some shoes one day.
How do you feel with the size you choose, are they a bit small, a bit big??
Thanks to tell me
Kisses from Paris!

I think they are pretty true to size, but I’d say they are a tiny tiny bit small. So perhaps I’d pick the larger of the 2 sizes. They are leather though, so they’ll stretch. : )
Love how you have shot this, so perfect. xx
So pretty! I love glitter flats!
They look beautiful. And there’s nothing wrong with sparkling on an everyday basis.
Yay to glitter!
These are stunning. I love the animated pictures as well~ So beautiful. Your blog is such an inspiration.
OMG they are so pretty! I really want a pair of sparkly ballet flats too… I tried some at H&M yesterday but they were so cheaply made I just couldn’t justify buying them. I hope I’ll run into a pair as cool as yours someday
Love them ! xx
This post is my happy place! Lovveee it!

Yours are beautiful, Carrie. I love the photos/gifs – bursting with twinkly prettiness
Oooo so pretty I have a soft spot for anything that sparkles xoxo

Just in Photoshop, save for web as a gif, nothing special : )

Gorgeous flats! I wish I had a pair too! (And I love those gifs.)
Which type of glitter did you choose? They’re sooo pretty!
It’s the smaller gold glitter, whatever it was called, I can’t remember! : ) x
Those shoes are beautiful! And the photos are amazing
Disney princess indeed! Love them!
LOVE them, having a go on the website now x
wow they’re so cute! and these photos look so artistic, really great
At first I thought your shoes were shedding all that glitter, but you saying you poured it around makes me feel more secure in my want for glitter shoes. Once you go glitter you never go back – seriously it can get everywhere.
Ooohhh they are lovely!! x
looooove <3
Oh wow they’re just perfect! Better than any pair you would have found on eBay! x
I love these shoes!

So cute!!!!! These are some beautiful flats <3
I'm in love with glitter shoes, and I've been searching for the ideal pair to customize since the ones I like are too expensive for me and can't afford them.
I actually stopped breathing when I saw the first picture. I’m in love! <3
Waw, amazing job they did. Or is it just the pictures?
Anyway, just lovely, glittery gold shoes. xxx
I had the chance to create my own pair as well with Dessine Moi Un Soulier and they’re gonna be delivered very soon ! Can’t wait to wear them, since I’ve opted for a glitter pair as well
Yours are juste awesomely lovely <3

The idea behind this is so cool, I’d love to create my own pair of shoes. And these glittery ones are so beautiful
http://lavie-amonavis.blogspot.com
Amazing shoes! just like your blog love it so much.
i’m a big fans of yours
Oh my goodness gracious. How on earth did you get your photos to move!? So incredible. I agree and I do have a pair of sparkling gold flats myself
I do not know what I would do without them

I adore the shoes! And adore the moving pictures. I have seen some in From me to you’s blog, and now you! I want to learn how to make the them too!
Aww, those little gifs are so sweet! Lovely shoes, they remind me of the ones Cassie wore in Skins. I would like a red glitter pair so that I can pretend to be Dorothey for the day!
Sparkly shoes will permanently be on my ‘want list’. The idea of creating my own shoes is too much, where on earth would I start?! Amazing job with these lovelies, so pretty! I love these photos and the adorable gifs but my sensible side did think ‘that’ll be a bitch to clean up’ when I first saw them haha I’m so boring

Oh, they’re absolutely gorgeous. I have a pair of gold glitter shoes from Topshop & I wear them so much that I’m afraid I’ll ruin them too soon. (I don’t know where I get the confidence to honestly, but people always compliment them and they’re just so lovely). x
oh the shoes are absolutely magical:))
xx
Me too! Though in my case I’ve been eyeing some gold glittered pumps. The flats look gorgeous!
You get to design your own shoes?! Yes please!
Lovely design!!!
