Anybody interested in buying a pair of size 9 spool heel pumps for $18? Free shipping in the US... I'd have to check for overseas. I was going to recover them for my 18th c. outfit, but they are a little tight. I'm usually more comfortable in 9 1/2 or 10's but they were so cheap that I thought I'd take the chance. But I don't want my feet to be hurting at the event since we are going to be playing games and walking around a good bit. They are in great shape, and look exactly like these (but I'll take pictures of my own shoes if anybody is interested). If you don't want to recover them for 18th c. stuff, you could also add some decoration to the vamp or make some spats and use them for Victorian. It's just so hard to find good spool heel shoes that I don't want them to go to waste.

They will go wonderfully with this fabric if yours are blue too!

And yes, they are blue, but they look darker in the pics thanks to my crappy indoor lighting.

LOVE the fabric, BTW!

I know you don't need me to do your research for you, but I just found this pic (http://www.dorlingkindersley-uk.co.uk/nf/ClipArt/Image/0,,239017_1581697_,00.html) of 18th c. pumps with a bow instead of the buckle in case you were wanting to do something along those lines.

Sweet! You want me to send you a check or paypal?

Thanks about the fabric! It's a lot fancier than I originaly wanted but I fell in love with it and it's priced resonable enough for a jacket.

That bow is exactly what I was thinking! Converting some clipon earings. I'm all over someone else's research! ~sly grin~

The shoes are in the mail. :)

If you haven't sent them I want to give you my work addy. If you have no biggie! The house works too.

Damn - I already dropped it off at the post office! I knew there was a reason why I usually procrastinate!

Sorry 'bout that. :/

It's about time for Louis heels to come back in... :)

Amen to that! They are kindof in right now... but mainly with really skinny heels.

I've had shoe salespeople describe it as 'kitten heels'. But I want the classic Louis heel. They're so sexy!! (and sturdier than kitten heels.)
