A Shoe-In For Those Walks Of Shame

You know what I'm talking about, ladies *wink* These Pan T Boots will save you time running about, trying to find your scattered belongings -- even if it will require you some time to slip them on...


Uber mod early 70s Pan*T*Boots....black tights and boots in one! Created in the early 70s by a woman who claimed to be tired of her socks slipping down into her boots, these were only available for a limited time. This pair has it's origina tag and fits a size 8.5-9 shoe, S/M tights. Streamlined and chic, heavy enough to be worn as leggings or tights!

Take that, Hermes!

How You Sit In Those Stockings & Shoes Says Something About You

So says these pages from Beauty Parade, January 1950. Sure, it's vintage; but so is my fashion sense -- and so are many of my stockings! Sure, it's campy stuff from an old men's mag; but then men haven't really changed that much, have they? (Totally fitting for our Fashion Fetish Fortune Telling Event.)
