Hi Everyone,

Haven't been here in a year (or a lot more I fear!) Anyhoo picked these up yesterday in Barretts and I love them!

I found these at the thrift shop last week for 8.00. I was returning to see if a pair of shoes I'd passed up earlier in the week were still there, sadly they weren't because I liked them a little bit better, they were similar but without the decorative leather strips. I haven't worn heels in years and even though these are fairly low, I hesitated but I think they will look great with some of my dresses. These are new shoes with a vintage look, the brand is Bobbi Blu.

Hello all, first time posting and of course, it's on the shoe thread :D I got these cuties in New Orleans at Trashy Diva. I haven't worn them out and about so I'm not sure how comfortable they would be if worn for hours and hours but they felt great in the store and are at a very wearable kitten-heel height. I'm loving all the shoes featured here although my wallet does not seem to share the sentiment :eusa_doh:

I read the best way to truly know a pair of shoes are going to fit without any problems is to do this. If you are mostly righthanded always try the shoe on your left foot. And if you are lefthanded you try the shoe on your right foot.
For me it works every time. Before I knew about this I spent so much money on a couple of pairs of shoes and my feet were yelling with every step. Now I only wear shoes for comfort.
There is a great web site that sells new vintage style shoes. www.AmeriMark.Com
The best thing about this web site is they carry wide sizes. I bought shoes from them three times. With no problems. The only thing is the orders take six to eight weeks to arrive in the mail. Still worth every penny to have cute comfortable shoes.

I always thought that if you were right handed your right foot would be slightly bigger. I'll have to really pay attention now! Welcome to the lounge Carmen. We can always use more ladies showing us more shoes!

Thank you for sharing, Swinggal! Some of those shoes are absolutely beautiful.

Has anybody had a pair from Miss L Fire? Do they wear well? I'm always disappointed by how quickly shoe heels wear down for me. :(

I love this thread, but it seems to cost me a bit of money every time I look here.
Alice, I have a few pair of Miss L Fire shoes and so far so good. They are comfortable and adorable. I wear them for nights out mostly. My one flat pair I wear more often and they are holding up well. I would say if you take good care of them, they should last a while. I spray a protector on them before wear. If you wear down the heels quickly, try putting the protectors on before you them. A shoe repair shop will do that for a small fee.

I have one pair,

I wore them dancing and the heel lift caught on a floorboard, and came right off! The bartender had duck tape so I got through the evening. I've since glued it back on. The heel lift is hard plastic, the soles are a plastic composition material.

I bought these Clarks shoes from a UK seller. I'm just now realizing that some shoe brands like Clarks will make shoes for the UK market that are not on available on the US market.

Miss L Fire on Modcloth.com

I was smitten with the green ones until I enlarged the photo. Admittedly, I was hoping not to love them because I don't need to spend that much money on another pair of shoes , but was still a wee bit disappointed to see the silver embellishment just glued to the back of the heel, where it's likely to fall away at the edges.
