Shoes refashion?

Hi!
I hope this belongs here...
I got a pair of wedges they are 5" but they are the most comfortable shoes I own!
The problem is that they are suuuuuuper ugly >.<
I don't want to get rid of the because it's always hard to find me shoes.

*Ok, maybe they are not ugly, but the style is just not for me.

The heel has some detail like here: http://fantasyfashions.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Beautiful-Jess-sandals.jpg
And I'd like to cover that...
And the actual shoe is "snake" kinda like this: http://cdna.lystit.com/photos/2012/02/01/b-brian-atwood-brown-dekoda-snake-print-leather-espadrille-wedge-sandals-product-1-2803550-105065377_medium_flex.jpeg
Wich I'd like to cover too.
I've never tried to change shoes so I have no idea.
Do someone have some suggestion for me? Happy
Thanks!!

Hi,
For the snake pattern, you could paint it? Even if it's a textured print, it might be more up your alley in a fun colour? I looked up some tutorials:

http://www.refinery29.com/cap-toe-shoe-diy
http://www.colbykern.com/2012/03/shoe-painting-makeover-diy.html
(I copied different links because they use different materials and techniques)
For covering up the heel, I don't really have an idea, maybe someone else out here can help you with that, but I hope this is helpful already Happy good luck!
