    I've looked at these so much I've managed to confuse myself! My first thought was early 30s, then late 20s, then mid 30s...

    Did they make shoes this bare in the 20s?

    Thanks!

    Not that I am the world's shoe expert, but now I am thinking the same thing. It's the toe area, not the D'Orsay style that has me wondering.

    I think this D'Orsay style doesn't happen til the early 30s.

    You are right, i forgot about that.
     
  6. D'Orsay??? Does that refer to the heel shape? Such pretty shoes.

    D'Orsay refers to how it is cut out in the middle of the foot and the strap combo. Sorry I am not too quick with more appealing sounding descriptions this morning :)
     
  8. Thanks Chris... Yes, I understand, I have heard that explained before and had forgotten.
