Lattice Lacing

I don't wear them very often but do have some skate shoes.  In summer when Big J and I go for long walks they are the perfect walking shoe: comfy, slightly more presentable than runners and a lot more stable - I'm constantly turning my ankle.

A great way to liven up your skate shoes or runners is to do a fancy lacing.  If you also buy a coordinating (or contrasting) shoe lace then your shoes can sport a cute look for little effort.

These are my skate shoes:
Pink Calico: Lattice Laced Skate Shoe

They originally came with white laces which I switched out for pink.  Then I laced them up lattice style et voila!

    1. Hi Terri: I've tried fancy lacing as a way to "use up" extra long shoelaces and its not too hard to do either.

  2. Oh I've done this before hehe. The contrast lacing looks super cute! Be warned though, they pull your shoes in weird ways..?

    1. Hey Stacey: Yeah, I've got some boots that I did a fancy lace on and they are super hard to do up. Thanks for dropping by my blog!
