Clearly the Cat loafers are a very cheap (€15) Charlotte Olympia knock off from New Yorker, the stitching was white and looked horribly cheap so I simply bought a gold marker and transformed the stitching to being a lush gold. I just happened to bump into the Cat loafers when I went to the New Yorker store for cheap light blue sneakers that I had seen  there but they were no longer there in my size so I decided to give the Kitty Cats a go! I often change the color of stitching in shoes and even clothing to transform something from looking hideous to looking fab!</i><br /><i>xoxo</i><br /><i><br /></i><i>I'm wearing; TopShop pearl embellished top, Zara white jeans, New Yorker (Charlotte Olympia DIY) cat loafers</i><br /><br /><img alt=" photo cocorosa-catshoes-8_zps5c34b2a5.jpg" border="0" src="http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt84/cocorosa_photo/festival/cocorosa-catshoes-8_zps5c34b2a5.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo cocorosa-catshoes-14_zpsf6ea5e51.jpg" border="0" src="http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt84/cocorosa_photo/festival/cocorosa-catshoes-14_zpsf6ea5e51.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo cocorosa-catshoes-13_zps97612825.jpg" border="0" src="http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt84/cocorosa_photo/festival/cocorosa-catshoes-13_zps97612825.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo cocorosa-catshoes-15_zps576e48de.jpg" border="0" src="http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt84/cocorosa_photo/festival/cocorosa-catshoes-15_zps576e48de.jpg" /> <img alt=" photo cocorosa-catshoes-1_zps6d3f40e1.jpg" border="0" src="http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt84/cocorosa_photo/festival/cocorosa-catshoes-1_zps6d3f40e1.jpg" /><br /><br />

I had used these products before (when still living in new York) and although it promises to reduce your wrinkles, it does something else! It actually really reduces blemishes, really! On me that is! and the cleanser which is also a facial mask is just heavenly!
