FIG. 1 is a top plan view of an embodiment of a tassel apparatus in accordance with the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a bottom plan view of the tassel apparatus ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is a top plan view of an embodiment of a shoe apparatus in accordance with the present invention, the shoe apparatus including a penny loafer and a tassel apparatus; -
FIG. 4 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a kit in accordance with the present invention, the kit comprising a first ornament apparatus, a second ornament apparatus, and packaging; -
FIG. 5 is a schematic view of another embodiment of a kit in accordance with the present invention, the kit comprising a first ornament apparatus, a second ornament apparatus, and a tag. - Reference numerals in the written specification and in the drawing figures indicate corresponding items.
- An embodiment of an ornament apparatus in accordance with the present invention comprises a tassel apparatus indicated by
reference numeral 20 inFIG. 1 . Thetassel apparatus 20 comprises abase member 22, afirst tassel 24, asecond tassel 26, and acord 28. The first andsecond tassels base member 22 via thecord 28. Thecord 28 has a first end region secured to thefirst tassel 24, a second end region secured to thesecond tassel 26, and an intermediate region threaded through a pair ofholes 30 in thebase member 22. Thetassel apparatus 20 preferably, but not necessarily, also includes aretaining clip 32 secured to the intermediate portion of thecord 28. Alternatively, the tassels may be secured to the base member via a knot (not shown) without departing from the scope of this invention. - Referring to
FIGS. 1-3 , thetassel apparatus 20 is adapted to be releasably connected to apenny loafer 40, to transform the penny loafer into a tassel loafer. Thepenny loafer 40 includes a sole 42 and an upper 44. The upper 44 includes a penny-receivingslot 46 sized and configured to receive a United States penny. Thebase member 22 of thetassel apparatus 20 is sized and configured to be readily inserted into and readily removed from the penny-receivingslot 46 of thepenny loafer 40 such that the penny loafer is readily transformable between a tassel loafer configuration (shown inFIG. 3 ) and a penny loafer configuration (i.e., a configuration in which the tassel apparatus is not attached to the penny loafer). Thebase member 22 is preferably a disk-shaped portion, although the base member could be of other shapes without departing from the scope of this invention. The upper 44 is of a shape and configuration for releasably retaining the disk-shaped portion in the penny-receivingslot 46. Thebase member 22 may be of approximately the same shape and size as that of a penny, and may comprise a penny. - Although the ornament apparatus of this embodiment is a tassel apparatus, it is to be understood that ornaments other than tassels may be employed without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, instead of the tassels, ornaments such as puffs, pompoms, bows, bells, figurines, parts including logos, etc., could be secured to the base member so that the ornament can releasably attached to the penny receiving slot of the penny loafer to adorn the penny loafer.

The first andsecond ornament apparatus packaging 116. Each of the first andsecond ornament apparatus second ornament apparatus second ornament apparatus FIG. 4 , but it is to be understood that the first andsecond ornament apparatus second ornament apparatus packaging 116 includesindicia 118. Theindicia 118 may include the name or logo of a school, athletic team, fraternity or sorority. At least a portion of one of the tassels or ornaments of thefirst ornament apparatus 112 is of a first color, and at least a portion of one of the tassels or ornaments of thesecond ornament apparatus 114 is of a second color, the second color being different from the first color. The first and second colors are colors of such school, athletic team, fraternity or sorority. For example, the indicia could comprise the name or a logo of a university (e.g., the University of Florida, or University of Notre Dame), with the first and second colors being colors associated with such university (e.g., orange and blue for the University of Florida, or gold and blue for the University of Notre Dame). To the extent the ornaments are tassels, both tassels of thefirst ornament apparatus 112 could be of the first color and both tassels of thesecond ornament apparatus 114 could be of the second color. Alternatively, each of thefirst ornament apparatus 112 and second tassel apparatus could include a tassel of the first color and a tassel of the second color. In yet another alternative, each tassel could include a portion of the first color and a portion of the second color. It is also to be understood that the ornament may be a depiction of an object associated with a school, athletic team, fraternity or sorority, such as a gator (associated with the University of Florida) or a clover leaf (associated with the University of Notre Dame). - Another embodiment of a kit of the present invention is indicated by
reference numeral 210 inFIG. 5 . Thekit 210 comprises afirst ornament apparatus 212, asecond ornament apparatus 214, and aremovable tag 216. Thekit 210 is the same as thekit 110, except thekit 210 includes theremovable tag 216 instead of thepackaging 116. Theremovable tag 216 includesindicia 218. Theindicia 218 is of the same type as theindicia 118 described above with respect toFIG. 4 . Thus, the description given above with respect to theindicia 118 is equally applicable to theindicia 218. - Referring again to
FIGS. 1-3 , to transform thepenny loafer 40 from a penny loafer configuration to a tassel loafer configuration, a user merely inserts thebase 22 of thetassel apparatus 20 into the penny-receivingslot 46 of thepenny loafer 40, such that the first andsecond tassels - In view of the foregoing, it should be appreciated that the invention has several advantages over the prior art.
