In some implementations, the adornment comprise stretch cords, a center ornament, and a connector wherein one or more stretch cords form a first loop around the ankle portion of the boot from one side of the center ornament to the other side of the center ornament. In some implementations, one or more stretch cords of the first loop that extend from opposite sides of the center ornament meets at the connector positioned opposite the center ornament. In some implementations, the adornment further includes one or more stretch cords forming a semi-loop extending from a bottom side of the center ornament, under the boot, and to the connector on the other side of the boot.

         4 . The adornment of  claim 1  wherein the at least one first stretch cord and the at least one second stretch cord are continuous where a first end of the continuous cord extends from the first side of the center ornament and the second end of the continuous cord extends from the second side of the center ornament. 
     
     
         5 . A method of placing the adornment of  claim 1  on a boot, the method comprising:
 gathering the at least one third stretch cord with the at least one third stretch cords;
