we used to wear them with thick black wooly tights

Though I have done it, with black socks in red pumps, and gold too I think but it didn't look great.

Not sure if I went further than the ice-cream van or putting out the rubbish.

Who cares about fashion- it is bl**dy cold!

Says the old codger who actually wore socks with her sandals the one day this summer I braved sandals to work

NoblesseOblige · 12/09/2008 20:39

Put the ballet pumps away. Bring them out in the spring.

LittleMyDancing · 12/09/2008 20:44
