Valentine’s Day is almost here and there are such a sweet collection of things to wear to a holiday party in my closet! These pink patent stilettos are some of my favorites.
These pumps are beautiful 100% leather from top to bottom. No wonder they’ve lasted 50 years, and can go a lot longer. It’s hard to find shoes of this quality now, so I always prefer my true vintage ones. They’re usually more comfortable, too.
I’ve got lots of lovely vintage shoes because I’m always finding them. You just never know . . . .

It’s just 13 days now till St. Valentine’s Day (& night!), so it’s time to get seriously ready! Two posts today, and let’s start from the outside and the shopping (?) trip.
Baby, it’s pretty cold outside most places so what to wear over your beautiful dress? How about this gorgeous heavy wool with mink collar and big decorative buttons, from the 1950’s? Though I would NEVER buy a modern fur, I cherish my decades-old true vintage pieces and honor the spirits of the animals who gave them.
Nothing will keep you warmer, while looking like a Princess. It makes a hugely eye-catching statement, too – a real head-turner. Also has a silky, red lining that glides over your skin and clothing and leaves you feeling really good . . . . . . . . .
