to DIY for

Being the sneakerfreak that I am, one of my fashion vices is that I have always been too lazy to wear heels. They make me look weird, they hurt, and the only occasions I have to wear them is to when going out, and I feel awkward dancing in stilettos (heels in daytime in Trondheim is a no-go because of the weather, the fact that I ride a bicycle to school and the horrible state of the sidewalks here). But since this blog is about not conforming to boring fashion standards, I'm willing to give it a go (pun intended).

And when I spotted these babies at Slowboat to Mediocrity, I was completely sold! Apparently, they are by Japanese label POTTO, but, as Yui noted on her blog, they are DIYable. All I need is an old pair of Nikes (preferrably patent Dunks), and some cheap pumps (and an ass-kicking studding kit, but such details must be ignored for now...). One of the sneaker stores here in Trondheim have a second hand corner where they sell used sneakers quite cheap, so let the hunt begin!
