Navy leather pumps with a little bit of nautical-style trim, and modest platform soles. Chunky heels. 100% leather construction (of course!). Classic, classic, classic and built like a brick house. No wonder they’re still skipping the streets 70 years later!

The colorful, naive graphics of true vintage souvenir scarves and hankies are SO much fun!! It’s wonderful to find one in silk, or any high quality vintage fabric like rayon or fine 100% cot…

You know I have SO much lovely true vintage lingerie and a ton of 1950’s slips, but I still go giddy when I find another one. They’re just so beautiful with their lace, applique, ribbons, sumptuous fabric and elegant tailoring.
This one is by Warner’s in a lemon ice color. Just the right length for a bottom-of-the-knee dress or skirt, or a midi.
I’m so glad that we are not locked into a certain hem length for months (or years) like women were in the past. No more dread of appearing unfashionable or out-of-step.
Ha! Can hardly imagine it . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
