Just catching my breath after the ball gown sew-a-thon and getting ready to fly up to San Francisco for the Great Dickens Christmas Fair. I strolled about the Pasadena City College flea market on Sunday and found these.

Curvy little heel, square toe, what's not to like! They do have a rather thin sole I may have a rubber dance sole put on just for cushion. I bought them for a bustle day dress but they may make it into the regular rotation.
Speaking of Dickens Fair, I finally finished a UFO jacket cut out about two years ago. The skirt I've had for almost 20 years! (Gulp). It was asking for a jacket and I caved, see.

Flashy and respectable, it can be done. Now to pack petticoats and hats and hoop skirt and..... well you get the picture.

*LOVE* the booties! And that plaid bodice is simply smashing!
