Dress Of The Day with Angela

  I loved the heels on these shoes. The wearer said they were shu shoe. She did not buy the online but in a shop. Did she mean Jimmy Choos shoes?  What did I like about them? The combination of gold and black, to go with a little black dress, and gold or gold colour jewellery and accessories. And the shape, the three balls. Vertical. High heels. You might have to be helped down the steps to a wine cellar. Also from the dining room to the downstairs ladies toilet - but Waddesdon had a big handicapped toilet on the ground floor. When I searched I could not find them. So I asked Gemini. The results came up with heels described as stacked. When I used that word, I was offered lots of choices. Very high. Totally impractical.

  Yellow leather ankle boots with yellow and green petal sewn on flowers. Photo by Angela Lansbury.  Copyright. I already have both red books and black boots in this style. They get constant compliments. The inside sole of one of my boots wore down. I covered it with a loose inner sole cut to fit. I looked online. My inner sole seemed a success. But I still needed to check the availability of a replacement pair of boots. Since the red pair was still wearable, why not buy another colour? In previous years I had rejected the yellow version, because it would match fewer outfits and probably get dirty and shabby quicker, with less chance of an inconspicuous repair. The black ones could easily be restored using paint-on black leather touch up. I put the yellow ones I found at two different prices into the out tray or cart on a couple of websites on my laptop.
