Have to agree Eric, matching or contrasting co-ordinates is how to create "the look." And the grey shoes are perfect, I don't have a pair in grey, instead I contrast my grey suit with a pair of oxblood spectators.

Has anyone ever seen or used a shoe suitcase? This is mine.

GHT; Sir your outfits are well put together. Your fine examples inspire.

Eric, your amazing vintage shoes have inspired me to start saving for a pair from Vintage Shoe Addict. I don't know where you find these grail pairs, honestly!

Mondo; VSA has quality stuff. He will not steer you wrong. Contact him during the saving process so he can "hook you up" properly.

I contacted him about a specific pair, I hope he's willing to make a deal on them. They're lovely shoes, a pair of 1930's Stetsons.

Traveling today in a pair of 1930 Nunn Bush art deco inspired shoes. Pristine condition shoes.

Geez...those look like they were just made last Monday! LOL! You found a real gem on those shoes. At times you can say the vintage shoes that are like this pair, may actually be the only ones around that are wearable and most likely the only ones that are in new/near new condition.

Good to see you posting again Cindy. I know you have to take one day at a time and only you can really bare the pain of your loss, but it's good to see you posting, you always brighten up these pages, and your shoe knowledge is second to none.

Thanks Cindy. Good to read your comments. Best, Eric -

The only thing that I can fault these beautiful shoes on is that they are a size eight. They need to be a ten for me to snaffle them.

If you look on the What are you wearing, thread, you will see these shoes, but not in close up. They are actually dress shoes, to be worn with a tux, but as the, what are you wearing thread, shows what they are teamed up with, you will understand why I've got them on today.

Thank you very much. The number 8 actually is is an Alden designation for their oxblood , or burgundy color. The shoe are sized 11 E
