Queen Marie adds ribbons to pretty much everything. Whilst I am much more selective about my ribbon adornment, I can still see the value of adding ribbons to spruce things up and add a new lease of life.
Last night I replaced the horrid white sneaker laces from my Dries-esque shoes, with grey grosgrain ribbons and it's already transformed the shoes from looking like heeled trainers, to pretty Victorian.
Adding the grey ribbon makes the white shoes easier to wear with black tights. But of course you could use any colour of ribbon you wish. I suspect I'm going to replace many boring laces with pretty grosgrain now!
