When I was on Homecoming Court last year, I was backstage at the coronation ceremony tying my dress shoes when my shoelace broke.
I couldn't go onstage with no shoelace...so with only 10 mins until I was to be onstage I took out my shoelace completely, tied the 2 broken pieces together, relaced my shoe, and pushed the knot under the tounge of the shoe.
It was uncomfortable with that knot digging into my foot, but it beat embarrassment.
