Where to Buy Rhinestone Shoe Clip Accessories
In the shoe department of many major retailers, be sure to check their accessories for shoe clips. Bridal shops or formal wear retailers may also carry them. If you can't find what you're looking for in person, there are online retailers that sell an array of rhinestone clips for the woman who wants a little variety in her shoe life.
- Absolutely Audrey has a few different categories of shoe clips, including Vintage, Bridal and Chic. Absolutely Audrey sells shoe clips that were formerly vintage jewelry pieces. You can have a one-of-a-kind shoe design with the addition of these old clips, which were previously earrings, brooches, pendants or buttons. The Bridal collection has the largest selection of rhinestone clips. In many instances, the Absolutely Audrey site allows you the option to view the clips as they stand alone or on a pair of shoes.

Recycle Old Jewelry
Get inspired by your old jewelry. If you have old brooches or pins cluttering up your jewelry case, reuse them instead of throwing them away. You may find a new love for your old jewels once you use them in different ways. If you're crafty enough to refashion your own vintage jewelry, go ahead and let your creative juices flow. You can make your own designer shoe clip from a forgotten pair of earrings and give them new life.
Not Just for Shoes
If you thought shoe clips were only for shoes, then you've missed the full range of uses for them. Since they're sold in pairs, you can wear them separately on items such as hats, shirts, scarves and purses. You can change up the look of just about anything with a little imagination, so don't be limited by only wearing them on your feet.
