Color soles are cute ♡

Pumps with colored soles are really cute, aren't they? * Especially with high heels, the soles are easily visible from the heel, so they stand out when they look cute ♡

The most representative color sole would be the "Christian Louboutin" red sole.

The glimpses of the red sole while walking are a symbol of the brand. *

Another popular choice for brides is to have the soles of their white bridal shoes in something blue.

Subtly having something blue on the bottom of your shoes is very stylish, isn’t it? ...♡

There aren’t that many pumps with color soles available, but I discovered that brides overseas are DIYing their own color soles by coloring regular pumps themselves.....

Here’s how to do it. *

How to turn regular pumps into color soles

Here are the materials you'll need for the DIY sole coloring.

☑ Pumps (It's recommended to choose a sole color that is white or close to the color you want to paint for easier painting.)

☑ Nail polish (It’s advisable to have about 2 bottles, as you will be layering repeatedly.)

☑ Top coat

＜How to change the color of the sole yourself＞

① Apply masking tape around the sole to cover areas you don't want to paint.

② Paint the sole with nail polish. Apply several layers so that the base color is not visible.

③ Apply the top coat.

④ Once you remove the masking tape, it’s complete! *

Using glitter nail polish makes it shimmer and look cute ♩ You can also use oil-based paint instead of nail polish for a quicker application.

Let’s make the soles in your favorite color ♡

The color of the sole of high-heeled shoes may seem like it’s not being looked at, but it actually is a part that gets noticed.

You might not pay much attention to regular heels, but for eye-catching colors like red or blue, they become a “Wow, that’s stylish!” spot. *

Why not prepare some inexpensive pumps for pre-wedding photoshoots and color the soles to make your original bridal shoes?

I think it would be lovely to have a message written on top of that too! ♡
