I like your shoes

These are still available - there must be some lovely Cinderella out there waiting for these shoes! (damn my evil stepsister wide feet!)

I wear a 9.5 or 10 narrow. I can't wear an 11. Are they a 10 or 11?

Ok ladies, I have some new items that made there way out of my closet.

They have never been worn except to try them on.

I love the Aris Allen shoes. Do you still have them? What are you looking for in trade?

Forget the Aris Allen shoes. I just saw on your website that you wear a size 6 so these 91/2 are vintage size 91/2 which don't fit me. Too bad, lovely shoes. I also liked the patent leather shoes you have on your website. I feel like Cinderella's sister with the big feet! lol

IGNORE the above...I had two posts confused. Are these shoes a modern size 9 1/2?

It wasn't your website. It was someone else's website. I confused two different posts. Sorry about that. The shoes should fit me if they are a modern 9 1/2. What are you looking for in trade? Is there anything specific you need?

I'm glad that I had some things that interested you. I will get you photos as soon as I can. Thanks again. I'm very excited about your shoes and I hope my dress and shoes work for you. Your shoes are more 1920s inspired and I mostly have 1940s inspired shoes. I love peep toe, platform, ankle straps which is probably why I have so many of them. lol One good thing about all of the shoes that I buy is that Nick loves women's shoes too (not wearing them of course but he does enjoy looking at them). I only have two pair of 1920s inspired shoes so I certainly need more to complete my 1920s style.lol

If these are a size 10 I'd be interested in a possible swap. These would be great as slippers for my long gown. Send me a pm.

Time to resurrect this thread!! I did some good swaps here already, so let's see what you got! I am a 46 bust, 36-38 waist, 46 hips. size 10 shoe. I need jewelry, blouses, skirts, dresses, makeup, I love shoes, lol. Even household things can be fun. I'm open to anything - let's make a deal!

Just in time for Viva Las Vegas or upcoming summer events - A pale pink "Squaw" style patio skirt and blouse set with beautiful black and silver rick rack and ribbon trim. Blouse has "Mays" Tucson, Arizona label. Typical crinkle fabric, content unknown. Full set of photos here including details.

Blouse:

V-neck, Dolman 3/4 sleeves, bust darts. (pull-over style - no zipper or buttons)

42" bust (measured flat) *actual garment measurement - please allow for ease of wearing*
The blouse is slightly lighter in color than the skirt, but it's barely noticeable except under a very bright outdoor light. It probably was laundered more than the skirt, I suspect. There is one small hole in the left front shoulder (as shown), and some slight stains on both sleeves, again not noticeable but I'm all for full disclosure. I don't know if they would come out or not, I have never worn or laundered this set.

Skirt:

32" waistband (measured flat) *actual garment measurement - please allow for ease of wearing*
metal side zipper, 2 hook and eye closure (will need to be re-sewn for security!).
27" long from waistband to hem.
This circle skirt is in excellent condition and i could not find any holes or problems upon inspection.

Are there any short girls who wear size 12 or 14(modern) that want to get rid of some fat clothes, 18? I have some dresses I made from vintage patterns that I probably won't fit into again. If anyone's interested, I can post some pics.

I have a pair of Freddie's of Pinewood jeans in the Jeanies style in black that I would like to swap for a different pair of high-waisted jeans or pants. The jeanies are super cute and the yoke on the back makes your back end look fabulous, but I like the much wider legged cuts better. They have been worn and washed once. The jeanies are 28 waist and 36 hip, my measurements are 27 waist and 27 hip -- although the jeanies hip at 36 fit fine. If they are Freddie's, I'm looking for 26 waist and 36 hip in the classic or utility cuts, or the 28 waist and 36 or 38 hip. I would love a pair of the Utilities in black. I'm also open to swapping for a different pair of high waisted pants or jeans!
