Transgender Pride Flag
The Transgender Pride Flag represents those whose gender has changed or differs from the sex they were assigned when born. It's an umbrella for a wide range of gender expressions and gender identities.
A transgender American Navy veteran named Monica Helms created the flag in 1999. The light blue and pink stripes were chosen as they are the traditional colours associated with baby boys and girls, while the white represents those who see themselves as having a neutral or undefined gender, are intersex or transitioning.
The Pride Fritillary ShoeWingsGive your feet wings to fly across the catwalk with these gorgeous fluttery Pride Flag coloured ShoeWings! They make excellent shoe bling for a variety of lace-up shoes such as runners, doc martins, heels and more, however if you feel they need even more bling, there's an extra eyelet at the top of each wing to attach cute bling straps or bells (available separately). This upper eyelet can also be used as an anchor point to tie your shoe art securely against your shoe for if you don't like the feeling of wings flapping as you walk, or if you buy two pairs, you can have two wings on each shoe so the inside wing can be secured to the outer wing behind the heel, making the shoe design symmetrical (which I adore) and appear as part of the shoe design itself.
Other awesome ways people have worn these... Lacing them into their corsets (which looks super adorable) Lacing them into their waist cinching laceup belts and into those vintage lace-up shirts like butterfly bowties!

These are designed to be durable, but as they are handmade, please treat them with love and care.
Clean them with water. For a deep clean, use warm soapy water and patt dry with a towel.
If you bend or crease them, Sit on them! The multiple varnishes and sealants make them malleable when slightly warmed (do not iron or overheat)
Avoid scratching them agaisnt abrasive or sharp surfaces and store them away from sunlight. Store them next to one another, not ontop of eachother. See the Blog for more Details.
