If you haven’t tried them yet, now’s the time to learn how to style with shoe clips. These little accessories are small in size but major in impact. As a top personal stylist for executives, I use how to style with shoe clips as a quick, elegant solution to elevate even your most basic pumps or flats. Whether you’re refreshing your footwear or adding some edge to a classic heel, how to style with shoe clips is your shortcut to modern polish—without buying a single new pair of shoes.
Shoe clips give your shoes a new lease on life!
They are meant to provide instant zhush and create something new with visual interest. In this case, I needed to attend a holiday awards dinner, and while regular heels would have worked, the customized feather shoe clips added just a little extra in recognition of the occasion and season.
You do NOT have to go as feathery as I did, but even small ones can change the trajectory of your footwear for the better. I’m going to share a few that I ow,n but also some ones you might want to consider depending on your style and need.
- Gold bluette shoe clips
- Silver crystal shoe clips (I travel with these to dress up my flats)
- Bow shoe clips
- Butterfly shoe clips (similar to what a client purchased for her fairytale wedding)
- Multicolored crystal clips
Besides bringing new life to your footwear, the benefits of shoe clips are also that they are an inexpensive way to have a new shoe, make after-hours dressing or zhushing easier, and they travel very well.
Sidenote: when I travel overseas, I am on the lookout for new ones, so let me know if you find something cool! They are a style trick I’ve been using for years – even to jazz up my holiday looks!
