Valentino’s shoes are everywhere! Their studded shoes have taken over every fashion bloggers Instagram, and have been so popular that the fashion giant has carried their signature look from the Fall/Winter season into Spring!  Valentino’s ‘studs’ are on everything from their shoes to their bags.  I love these shoes, and since I spend so much time in the craft supply store, I figured I could get this look on my own.  It’s really simple!  I ordered a pair of pointed-toe, flat shoes from Amazon and attached studs with industrial strength glue.  You can find the studs and glue at most craft supply stores (i.e. Michael’s Arts and Crafts).  The only trick to this craft is patience.  In order to prevent the studs from sliding, you will need to hold them in place and allow them to dry.  It’s worth the wait!
