    Quite a few months ago I purchased my flower girls shoes, at the time they were out of stock in my junior bridesmaids size (13) but I assumed they would come back in stock at some point. After regularly checking online & instore with no luck I emailed the supplier, only to be told they wont be getting anymore stock :(
    My jr bridesmaid loves these shoes & really wants to be wearing the same as her sister (flower girl), the only thing I can think to do is buy the shoes in a smaller size that I've seen instore, remove the butterfly & sequins, then re-attach them to some plain shoes I've seen.
    Does anyone know if this is even possible?

    It could be possible. You'd have to make sure they come off the other shoe ok though.

    I've just come across these on the bay, do you think they would be a close enough match?
    Would save wasting £16 on a pair of shoes just to cut them up!!

    Yep they look close enough and will be as close to the original as possible.

    Have you tried looking on the bay for the same shoe? Might be lucky and find a pair or something similar on there x

    I agree with the ladies above - saves you buying a pair of shoes when you can get the attachments easily enough and cheap enough from bay :)) Great idea though!! xx

    have you looked at other shoes, there are some really pretty butterfly shoes out on the highstreet at the moment which are quite similiar. if your jr bridesmaid sees them she might be happy with different shoes, you can tell her its because shes older x
