Shoe Makeover: A Lil' Bit of Stitching

I have another shoe re-do for you today.  Today's shoe makeover isn't nearly as dramatic as yesterday-no paint or glitter on this one.  I've had these black wal-mart loafers for a couple of months.  I picked them up on clearance, but every time I put them on I feel like I'm wearing slippers.  I think it is because I own a pair of slippers that are black on black.  

To add a bit of color to the shoes, I did some simple stitching with embroidery thread along the top of the toe, the toe seam, along the back of the heal.

 I alternated colors, on each shoe, so they aren't identical. I also added some (non-matching) yellow buttons.

They aren't shoes that I'll wear everyday, but they are shoes that I will wear SOME days, which is more than I was doing before.  I think that they are kind of fun to pair with t-shirt and jeans (let's just pretend like that's not what I wear EVERYDAY).
