Gruesome Sparkle Flats

Be a Fashionable Halloween Zombie with the Brains Glitter Shoes

— October 10, 2012 — Fashion
Step out in scary style with these Halloween zombie-inspired Brains Glitter Shoes. Created by Catherine Gretschel aka Etsy seller Aishavoya, these glitter-encrusted ballet flats are a part of her gorgeous sparkly shoe design collection.

Look and feel smart with brains on your feet as you go trick or treating this year and feel extremely stylish while you do it. You can be scary and sweet at the same time if you coordinate your zombie costume with these super cute shoes. Colored in hot pink, these flats feature black brain-like patterning all over, adding a creepiness factor that balances out all the sugary sweet glitter. Once you've finished with your Halloween party, you can still wear these shoes as quirky ballet flats.

The Brains Glitter Shoes will add sparkle to your Halloween zombie outfit.
