Bling converse sneakers

Hey ladies. I have been working on these sneakers for the past two days. I finished one of the sneakers last night but I have to finish the other one today. What do you think?

I needed something comfortable to wear while we take wedding photos. We will be taking early morning photos for three hours at the monuments in Paris. I have heels which are reasonably comfortable but walking on the cement will likely make them hurt faster. My dress is long and they won’t show in the pictures. My dress has the same crystals on the bodice.

Are you wearing sneakers with your wedding dress? If so, post a pic!

    I know right... I’m thinking about opening up an Etsy account and start selling them.

    I thought about that too! I know I could probably do a few pairs for people but I know with work it would be difficult to do long term. It would be a great way to make extra money for the wedding

    I own 6 pairs of Keds already so I know how they fit! But I love the glitter and color of these!

    So you got me thinking as I have a huge collection of converse shoes (they're the perfect shoes for weight lifting!). I searched through the back of my cupboard and I found an old pair of sparkly converse. They're even more sparkly in person. They need a very good cleaning and pretty satin laces but they can be my dancing shoes! As much as I looooove my Betsey Johnson heels I know I will never survive dancing in them! What do you think white laces or lavender to match my dress? The shoes will be seen!

    Thanks for the idea!! 😊

    I have heels for the ceremony but bought some Sperrys for the reception. I caught an amazing sale and was able to buy my bridesmaids each a pair of grey sperrys. I’ll wear my sparkly sperrys all of the time after the wedding but none of my bridesmaids are as “out of the box” as I am, they needed “boring” everyday colors. lol.
