Dangling Black Grosgrain Bows
Two things that worried me when I tried shoe clips earlier today: whether they’d fall off while I wasn’t looking, and whether the metal clip would dig into my feet. Although I can’t speak for every brand, I can say that Aliza Darik shoe clip came through. I’m always willing to give a new designer her due, especially when they’re daring enough to reinvent an old trend, and the product is good. Although shoe clips are a trend that I’d long forgotten about, Aliza Darik’s collection of handmade shoe adornments brings to mind what I liked about them the first time around. Masterfully knotted and fashioned ribbons, sequins, rhinestones and more can turn a so-so shoe into so, so adorable. I turned basic black mules into evening footwear with the sweetest black and gold metallic bows. But they aren’t just for shoes. Aliza Darik makes dangly ribbons that look dashing on boots too! Such a simple little accessory can really jazz up your tootsies. They’re for evening wear, casual wear and even sandals! Find them at alizadarik.com.
