flat-out fabulous- OCTOBER GIVEAWAY

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

I should tell you that I have a thing for shoes. Accessories in general, really, but especially shoes. And lately, I run into a pair of gorgeously adorned ballet flats everywhere I go- ballet flats with flowers, ballet flats with ruffles, ballet flats with ribbon, ballet flats with little bows and big bows. I love them all! I feel like these types of fabulous shoes are the perfect punctuation for an understated outfit (a cashmere 3 quarter length sweater and jeans, for example).

So when Jordi came up with the brilliant idea of creating ballet flats with exchangeable adornaments, I was beyond thrilled. A whole repertoire of be-dazzled shoes without having to buy a whole fleet of new footwear? Glory!

And then when we actually made them- oh, friends- they exceeded my (kind of high) expectations. If you live in Denver, you know this because I’ve worn them every day for the last week with a different adornament each time.

Here is the good news for you in all of this charm-bracelet-for your feet-fabulousness: in honor of this great month of October, we are giving away a pair of these goodies for your tootsies! At the end of October, we’ll send one gorgeously adorned pair of ballet flats to a lucky winner. You’ll also get to choose your shoe color (black or brown) and three pairs of accessories to accompany these little footwear gems. Think of the possibilities- ruffles and medallions and ribbon and buttons and pom poms in every shade you can imagine. Again, glory! AND, to sweeten the deal just a teeny bit more, they’ll come packaged in a sewn-to-suit shoebag (the perfect carrying case for the flats and all their extra ‘shoe charms’).

Even better- you have 3 opportunities to win… you can enter by:
1. Leaving a comment to this post sometime this month. We are having a hard time coming up with a name for our chameleon-like ballet flats. What do you think we should call these little numbers? Leave your suggestions in your comment.
2. Becoming a follower of our blog.
3. Linking to this post from your blog. Bonus points (or chances) may be granted for especially fabulous write-ups, so be creative. Leave a comment with the URL of your link so we can count your extra entry.

Good luck, friends!

  15. Hey guys! I've been a follower for a long time now – does that count? 🙂
    I LOVE this idea. It's so much fun, and so whimsical!

    Hmmm, name ideas…like you said, this is tough! Here's just a couple I thought of (although I like some of the ones already posted! What creative friends you have!!):
    KojoToes, CutsiePatootsies, Frosting on the Feet, FootFlair… yep, that's tough! Good luck!

  16. These are so cute! Coming up with a name is hard! The only ideas that pop in my head right away are "soulful shoes," "shoes with soul," "sweet souls," "soul sisters" "happy feet." For some reason I can't think away from the sole/soul names! I will try to think of some more.

  17. Um, so I already have those exact ballet flats from Target! Does that help my chances? (I also have them in sparkly zebra print.)

    I love, love, love the charms! What a great idea. 🙂

    I like the first commenter's idea of "twinkle toes." cute.

  21. You all are beyond fabulous! What a GREAT idea! I follow your blog, but haven't made it official – so I will do that!

    What about "Foot Frosting" with a tag line – "So cute you could eat em" hehe. Or Flat Frosting or just Foot Frost or Flat Frost… ohhh, i like that:)

  23. You used the word "adornaments" in your post. I don't know if that was a typo or not, but why not just call them that–Adornaments?

    Reply

  24. I LOVE these! you girls are so creative. Even if I don't win I want some! I just added me as a follower of you blog- not sure why I wasn't before??

    As far as a name goes I was thinking:

    "petit pirouettes"

    which is a ballet word for "small turns"- which you do with your feet! (jord I will show you an example when I see you next :0) )

  48. These super cute gems have already been named, I am already a follower of the blog, I cannot decide which ones I like best, and I don't know how long I will actually be able to see my feet… but I am pretty sure that these would be the most perfect accessory for my maternity wardrobe so maybe I will win them anyway. Another wonderful creation gals!
