Clips Transform Those Tootsies
Blogged under Apparel, Jewelry, New Apparel and Decor, Shoes and Accessories by Alison Maxwell on Monday 4 August 2008

Despite our best efforts, it’s not always possible to plunk down a big chunk of change on a new pair of kicks. These days, we’re all about transforming what’s already in our closets, and shoe clips can do just that for your favorite pair of heels. Erica Wiener Jewelry’s clips are bona fide vintage. Weiner purchased different styles manufactured in the ’40s, ’50s and ’60s. Choose from 11 pairs of clips at a bargain $25 (versus upwards of $80 for a pair of Nine West pumps). Have a boring pair of black heels? Clip the red patent leather bows to the front or back and voila, a new look. The blue grosgrain rosettes could easily be paired with your favorite silver, gold or white flats. Material Pleasures goes back even farther, with a selection of vintage Victorian shoe clips like these intricate cut-steel ovals from France ($40). Absolutely Audrey carries new clips, along with vintage styles. Glitter up those pumps with the Jackie rhinestone bows ($30) or the Paris clips in ruby, amber or clear ($30). Brides can add something new from Absolutely Audrey’s bridal collection, such as the demurely elegant Maxine pearl clips ($35; pictured). Shoeworthy also has some wonderful little gems ($20 or $22.50 per pair).
