FF#47: themed challenge!

Well...we are back in action after an extended challenge at the Shoe! This week we are going to go in a different direction....take you back in time to the 80's! Who doesn't love the 80s??? Personally I think it is one of the most fun era's to revisit! Good music and fashion eh? So our challenge for you this week is to use the 80s as your motivation. This is a pretty wide open field as you will see by our DT samples! But first....I have a Shoe of the Week to crown! This was tough, all of the entries were great! The Shoe of the Week is going to...
Erica!
