I have no idea what it is about vintage shoes, but I truly am hooked. I found these shoes on etsy. The blue ones, I justified, would work perfectly with my blue 50s Christmas dress. The red ones…well, they are just little works of art. Both pairs were very inexpensive.

The woman I bought them from told me they had been stored in her grandmother’s closet for years. Apparently when going through a divorce, the grandmother’s lawyer advised her to buy lots of expensive shoes before she left the marriage.  She took his advice. Sadly though, I don’t think they gave her much pleasure, because these shoes have not been worn outside, if at all. I think once they arrive in the mail I will smudge them to get rid of any negative energy.
