After a long trek to the Emerald City, Dorothy would happily have traded her shoes for these sparkling slippers, complete with red “ruby” buttons and double soles for extra comfort.

Designer Note: The slippers are identical except for button placement. Don’t panic if the left slipper turns out to be the right slipper. Just attach the other strap on the opposite side.
