The $3,695.00 shoe.....NOT.


      I think that most women would just love to have these crystal covered peep toe pumps on their feet. However, with a price tag of almost $4,000.00 that just isn't in the cards for most of us!!!



Do not worry! I have another (much less expensive) option! Check these babies out:






      The crystals you crave at a much better value! These were made by my friend Christi and I personally think she did a fantastic job of capturing the stunning quality of the original Christian Louboutin pair. She purchased a pair of Pour La Victoria nude pumps as well as crystals from an ebay seller to create these amazing shoes at a fraction of the cost! Here are some other shoe options for this spectacular DIY project:

If any of you were lusting after the swarovski crystal embellished shoes but intimidated by the price tag try this project instead!
