It’s another one of those ‘hand to the forehead’, aha moments that has me saying “How clever are these?! I wish I’d thought of that!” I stumbled across these little goodies on the interwebs (lol) and just have to share them with all of you. In truth, I could have used these a month or so ago when I was getting ready to attend a black-tie wedding where the actual ceremony was going to be on a lawn. Of course, I wanted to wear heels, and I didn’t really want to schlep along two pair of shoes (flats for the ceremony and heels for the reception.) What a girlie problem to have, right?

These little Starlettos would have solved the problem. They’re clear plastic tips that go on your heels, but they have a broader base than your heel-tip so they keep your heels from sinking into the grass. They’re very small so they’ll fit into your clutch. You can slip them on your shoes before you head out on to the grass, and then remove them when you go back indoors. The website says you should be able to get up to 10 uses out of each set, depending on how much/little you walk on non-grassy surfaces.

So if you’ve got some events coming up (weddings, polo, Royal Ascot, etc) on a grassy environment where you’ll need to be very posh (oh dear, I believe I’ve slipped into British-speak), these could help save your heels from some serious damage, not to mention the lawn itself. What do you think? Would you give these a try?

Thanks for reading!
