(it really annoys me how some of the flappy bits on the right shoe stand up like that. Will not be fixed!!)Or Scottish highland shoes.
Or both. Oh, I know, except for the heels. Not very good on a golf course or for doing a highland fling.
I actually would never have thought I'd buy shoes with this kind of detail. All the others I've ever seen have been just too much. Maybe it is the colour - all one colour, rather than, say, red white and blue (I've seen them!!). And a nicely shaped heel, not too high. And the d'orsay style of the shoe (toe and heel cup). I really do like these shoes a lot. Most excellent winter work shoes!

You know, I can imagine that without the cutaway bit around the middle, you'd end up with an entirely different style of shoe - more on the 'sensible' side, as my mother would say. But as they are, they are sheer elegance. Would it be a bad thing to maybe put a tiny dot of glue on the standey-upey bits?
I find it extremely unfair that you can wear such shoes in the winter. Hmpf!!
:-)
PS I FINALLY sent in my passport renewal. I shall be spending my winters with you from henceforth...
And I'm coming with Amy. It's been raining for more days straight than I care to think about. And cold. And windy.
But the shoes, they are wonderful. So dainty, but business-oriented. Perfect, as you say, for work.
Seriously beautiful! Some of my shoes do the standy-uppy thing - have you tried damping and weighting?
I lurve them!
divine. could you please tape yourself doing a highland fling in them and post it on youtube immediately :)
If you showed just the toe, they would look very sensible, but the other details take them off in the elegant direction.
kms, you owe me a keyboard now!
If I did wear heels I'd wear these. Very attractive shoes!
My. Land. Those are especially cute shoes. May I ask what brand they are?
Really. Super cute.
That's hilarious. And reminds me of a friend from New York who thought that golf was a terribly elitist game, which made me roar laughing. My grandfather used to ride his bike to the links with his golf bag and clubs slung over his shoulder - he didn't own a car at that stage (just after WW2). Not much elitist about that!
As for standey-upey-ness, a good shoe place should be able to solve this for you but it might be only temporary and they'd probably pop up all the time
Just when I thought you were about to say you weren't convinced you liked these shoes, and maybe just maybe I could take them off your hands you finish by saying you like them... so close to having a pair of Rose Red beauties but oh so far!
