Put a sock in it!



A heres great way to make a shoe fit thats too big for you. Put a sock in it. as simple as that.
Or if there only slightly too loose and your already wearing a pair of knee highs wear a small ankle sock under the knee highs to add more bulk.

I yesterday I received my shoe order from baby! however because I could technically fit both L and LL sizes, I decided to play it safe and go with the bigger one. and sadly it turned out that they are slightly too loose on my foot (but still better then too small). So I tuck a sock and shoved it into the toe of the shoe and now they fit perfectly! Wich is good because I love them to death, especially the black ones.


with socks in toe

also with sock shoved in.

Another thing that I had to do to the shoes is add another hole for the buckle because even on the tightest setting the straps were waaaay to loose. And for that all I did was take a yarn/tapestry needle and shove it through the strap where I wanted the new hole to be, yarn needles are way bigger then normal hand sewing needles so it wasn't hard to shove the buckle through the new hole.

Look forward to some new outfits with these shoes!
And happy 100th post!
