Beautiful shoes
hey everyone
i'm a fashion-lurker in a dilemma and need your help!!
a very nice friend sent me a gift of some deep purple satin anne klein stiletto sandals and i really really REALLY want to wear them - but they're a tad tight :( :( :(
anyone have any ideas on how to make them fit? im currently trying the wearing-socks-with-them-around-the-house method, but not sure it will work because they're satin.
i have a big party on friday they would be perfect for! Argh!
Thanks in advance for any help!

Answers:
Stuff them with wet newspaper then when the material is damp, shove a potato in to stretch the shoe. :) Hope it works ok!

wet newspaper?! i havent heard that before, particularly followed by a potato! thanks for the idea tho!:)
slightly worried this would stain/ruin them, they're satin...
anybody have any other ideas?

A lot of shoe shops such as Clarks and cobblers seem to sell shoe stretcher stick thingys, I think they are called Stretching Trees, so you could try them, you can also buy a a spray that you spray in your shoe before wearing them around the house to help stretch them, however I'm not sure if these are only suitable for leather or not.
