These Harry Potter heels are a stylish commemoration of a much-loved franchise. Hand painted by Reddit member Smartypants for her sister-in-law and her bridesmaids for her wedding, these heels display a great handle on the colors and designs of the Harry Potter series.
The Bride wore the Black Hogwarts pumps (labeled after the school that provides the main setting for the books) and the bridesmaids wore the heels with colors and labels of each house at Hogwarts: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin. The heels of each were then decorated in matching colored rhinestones for added glitz.
These shoes are both geeky and stylish, and suited the live-action role play theme of the wedding. These colorful, trendy shoes are a great work of art and fashion fused into several pairs of wedding-day shoes.
