Always wanted to be a shoe designer? Well, now you can try your hand at customizing all sorts of shoe styles at Steve Madden Online [1].

It's as easy as this: go to SteveMadden.com [2] and click on Design Your Own [3]. Next, choose a style (flat, loafer, pumps, wedges, etc) and click "customize style." You're now ready to play with lots of fun colors. Buyer beware: this process can take quite a long time - especially if you're a perfectionist!

To the right is the shoe I designed for $90. I was going to pick flats, but I decided to try something outside of my comfort zone. I like these because they remind me of ballroom dancing shoes.
