graduation, and shoes!

I am so excited! Graduation is three days away! The middle of my junior year, my best friend and I started a countdown to see how many days we had left. Back then, it was in the four hundreds and that seemed like it would never come, and now, here I am three days away from it, and I remember 400 like it was nothing! The year really has flown by! Last year, I decided that I was determined to find an AMAZING pair of shoes for graduation night, because that is all anyone really sees anyways. So in January of this year, I found my shoes. They are blue, yellow and white colorblock, platform pumps, and I love them! and they have been sitting in my closet since then, and I am SO excited to get to wear them out Friday night! Anyways, this isn't all about my graduation shoes. It is also about my favorite pair of every day shoes.
These are my "custom Toms". except they aren't Toms. Not because I don't think it's a great organization and idea, but mostly because I'm cheap, and I give to other charities as well. So anyways, these shoes were plain gray when I got them. I then painted on the turquoise with acrylic paint and wrote on it with a sharpie pen. They were so easy, are so comfortable, and I get So many compliments on them! I just love them!
