Shoe Closet



Hi there ! Thanks Jessica & Doll for your comments about "Why I love the 1940s". I would like to state that even though I championed the 40s I do love pieces from several different periods and I salute any gal who dares to immerse herself in any period and steps outside "the box" ! ;)

The above shoe is from peeptoe and I tend too droll over it every now and then... It´s my burlesque shoe to come ! That said, I thought I would post some pictures of my own shoes, just for the fun of it ! I love a vintage look, but tend to pick more modern shoe choices, as long as they have a rounded toe and straight heel, preferably chunkier.



These are my "shiny" shoes , they will add sparkle to any ole´drab day !


Then there are my "black & brown" shoes for a slightly more polished look.



A few "spotted" choices is a must ;)



And of course the practical mackintoshes, but with a little edge ... Dear vintage lover, why don´t post me some of your shoe darlings !

ps. Needless to say I wear sneakers most of the time... but as I´ve said before I.W.O.I ( I´m working on it ;)
