Calling all shoe experts! Need help please.

Can someone tell me if these shoes are from the 40s or 50s? They're a kind of mesh and some other type of material. But don't have a clue how to describe. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Theresa

I think they are early 50s, but I'm just going by some pics I
saw this afternoon when I was looking for hat scans for Gayle.

Jonathan is getting his new computer today, and hopefully will be back on
board soon!

Are they a straw braid applied to mesh? They look very similar to a pair of my mother's, although hers are a natural straw. And early 50s works for me.

It looks like you are just fine without me!

Yup, early 50s.

Alrighty then. 50's it is.

Hollis, now that you mention it, the shoes do look like there is some kind of straw attached to the mesh part. I never would have figured that out in a million years!

Thanks so much for the info. You guys are great!

Sue you are so funny!<p>
Those shoes are sooo cute! If I could wear heels that is what I would be buying! Definitly look 50's to me as well!
