Huge thank you to Janis Middleton for today’s post on Atlanta shoe designer Ms. Mary Mac. Follow her on Twitter @CaMillionShoes all the latest in shoes.

Most women can relate to not having or finding the right shoes to go with that certain outfit or dress. What lengths have you gone to have the perfect shoes? An Atlanta shoe designer ran into that same problem before her senior prom. She designed and created her own shoes for the special occasion and her life has never been the same.

Ms. Mary Mac, Maryetta Finkley, has been designing shoes ever since she was 17 years old. The self-taught seamstress strayed away from the idea when she decided to attend college at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA. Not until she was about to receive her B.A. in Psychology did the idea resurface. She was interning and really needed to make ends meet. She never gave up on her passion for sewing and making shoes. She sold 2 pairs of shoes at $150 each and realized her potential and how much money she could really be making. It was then in 2007 when Ms. Mary Mac, the business, was born.

Finkley’s designs are innovative and one of a kind. Most of her creations are original, but if she does make a replica of another shoe she usually limits it to two. Some customers come to her and want exactly what they saw on her Facebook page, but the majority of her customers trust her natural instinct for fashion and allow her to create from her heart. She loves to see the smiles on their faces when she reveals the shoe that she has created for them.

If you look around your house, you probably see a few pieces of fabric, scissors, glue, and maybe some pearls and ribbons. Those are the main ingredients that go into her creations. After the order is placed, it takes only three to five hours for the shoes to be created and ready for shipping. Prices start at $120 with shipping and handling. She carries many sizes and all you have to do to order is log onto Facebook or email her.
She uses a high quality manufactured shoe that comes with a built-in platform, so you don’t have to worry about using your own. Just place the order, give your vision and size, and she will bring a smile to your face and style to your feet. It doesn’t take much to see that Finkley puts her all into each and every creation. She still amazes herself with some of the shoes she has designed.
As her slogan states, “you’re not a simple, so why wear simple shoes.”
