To add a pop of color, all it takes is a quick shoelace switch to transform your shoes. You can incorporate different colors, ribbons and even choose ones with lace detailing. Bonus points for matching the color of your laces to your OOTD!
Pearls
Take your shoes from basic to innovative by stringing pearls and beads onto your laces. Test out sizes, shapes and hues of your liking to design your personal creation.
Beaded keychains
