If you had a set of sandals of your own that you loved could you do the nail art and actually wearing the sandals, or does it have to be seperate pics of the shoe and the nail art - just a thought!

Although it would be preferable to have separate photos I don't see why it would pose a problem to have the feet 'wearing' the sandals

Just a warning to make sure the sandal pictures your using aren't copyrighted because that in its self is a nightmare.
