How fabulous! I have several shoes that look very similar to the ones you've posted, it's great to know that you can find vintage-y styles in regular stores! ^^

Aren't those just *divine* ? I have such a soft spot for spectators, especially brown/white.
DeleteThey're adorable!
ReplyDeleteAlso, this reminds me of a shoe post here a few years ago where I left an anonymous comment offering to send you pictures of 2 pairs of shoes formerly owned by Grandmother. You replied saying that you would love to see them and to post them on Facebook. Since I am not on Facebook I could not do that.
Now it's going to bug me, I should do a post on them.
They have the same general silhouette as these ones but the design details are very different.
Oh yes, please, I still want to see them!
DeleteI love those with the same colour/material combination as your Claremonts... because I love that combination on the Claremonts. That dark dark brown velvetiness. Reminds me of my mother for some reason. :D
ReplyDeleteAnd speaking of showing vintage shoes, I'm not sure if you've seen these I saw in a thrift shop some time ago:

Now that I compare them to these, and what I've seen elsewhere and heard about private artisans in Brno, I think they're newer than 1930s; but probably not by much.
I love all of these!
ReplyDeleteEverything about the jacket seemed fine. Quality leather, fit, color etc.The style is classic, yet modern, timeless, casual and very cool. High quality and very well crafted/constructed. Designer jackets
