Ruby Slippers


Many of you commented positively about the red patent pumps from the Talbot's Fall Lookbook.

If you can't wait until fall, here are a few options:



Cole Haan, $209.95.  (I have these in black and can attest to their comfort.)

Stuart Weitzman, $298.  (If you can tolerate a 4" heel, these are super sexy!)


Stuart Weitzman, $325.  (Lower heel and slightly rounded toe.)

  2. Cosmic! Just last week, I brought home a pair of gorgeous Steve Madden slingback platform high heels in cherry red patent leather--I had to have them. They made my shortish sturdy legs look--- well-- longish! AND they were startlingly comfortable. Talk about confusing-- I almost left them in the store, I couldn't fathom how it could be possible, until some guy walking by said "Those look great on you!" And he wasn't the staff! After that I had to... what a pushover I am. Non, je ne regrette pas...

  3. Ooh nice selection. I like the Cole Haan peep toe, that darker shade is good for autumn but love the shape of the Stuart Weitzman.

  4. Now find a pair with a heel that's high enough for me! ;-)

  5. A lot of those reds are too aggressive for me- at least how they show up here- I prefer the cherry to burgundy range for my size 10 feet! Isn't it wonderful what a pair of red shoes does for your mood?

  6. Miss J tried a similar Cole Haan- peep-toe w/ slingback... OH, they were dreamy! And alas, out of her budget. She settled for something similar... "Settled" being the key word here. Though they are a shorter, kitten heel they don't feel nearly as stable as the better-made Cole Haans...

  7. I fell in love with the Cole Haans, bought them and they were very uncomfortable for me. That was a surprise since I own 3 other pairs of CH. Salesperson said sometimes patent leather fits differently. I love red shoes and think all women need at least one pair!

  8. Just today, shortly after I accidentally bought a MaxMara jacket, I watched a woman try on a beautiful pair of dark red patent pumps with a heel that looked just about good for walking in ... Something else I need?

  9. Frankly I prefer your chaussures oranges!

    (Plus, the Dorothy in the original books didn't have ruby slippers - they were silver shoes...my fave!!)

  11. Well, aubergine is as red as it can be for me. The JC´s stand out from this collection.
