I am having no joy.

I would like a black leather pair with a Cuban or Louis heel-no more than a couple of inches.

Someone out there can do it, I KNOW it Grin

Have you tried dancing shoes?

Well, I immediately thought of these, I've been eyeing them up for ages!

This pair? Inside leather, outside patent. Google Charleston shoes?

fizzyapples · 13/07/2012 19:25

Googling 'Mary-Janes' should help too.

QueenieLovesEels · 13/07/2012 19:32

I like the hotter ones but alas they have nothing left. That is exactly the sort of heel I am looking for.

Love the Hush Puppies but they are a tad on the high side.

I have googled Mary janes, flapper shoes, twenties shoes, t-bars etc and nothing is turning up.

Thank-you all for your help so far.

Just looked on Etsy - entered '1920s shoes' not sure of your size but may be something here

New Hotters on eBay in size 4.5

I am a size 5 unfortunately and not sure how the Hotter shoes fit.

I have gone to heaven re the Etsy ones. There are some absolutely beautiful shoes. I really like the ones that tie at the front with teardrop cut outs either side. I don't know how wide vintage shoes are. Am very tempted......

Thank-you for all your efforts.

I thought there would be more out there because isn't 'The Great Gatsby' supposed to be a major trend? I am definitely going to explore the dancing shoes route a bit more.

If you want to explore the dancing shoes route try Freed of London. If you're in London their store is near Leicester Square. It's a joy to shop in-another world!

those Hush Puppy ones are absolutely gorgeous, I'm buying them thanks to this thread and I don't need a new pair of shoes!

fizzyapples · 13/07/2012 20:35

Aren't they just gingham!

MagicSeeker · 13/07/2012 20:37

Saw these when browsing earlier. They also have them in black and cream.
