Greer's OC

You can easily add sparkle and glamour to flip-flops made of rubber or leather with Newport Beach-based Luxeclips. The company was started by a mother and daughter team who create sparkling clips for your favorite flip-flops, or any shoe. Luxeclips are handmade with genuine crystals and rhinestones. Choose from an iridescent peace sign; crystal skull and bones; blue, topaz or pink pinwheel; starfish, a signature clip with turquoise and more.

The clips are available at local retailers including Persimmon Tree in Newport Beach, Coast Hills Pharmacy in Newport Beach, Trio in Newport Beach, Surfside Sports in Costa Mesa, and Tootsies in Laguna Beach. Clips are also available online; please allow 10 to 14 business days for shipping. Prices range from $15 to $75, but average price $22.
