Today's Shoes

Day

Edward Green half-brogue bals in chestnut antique (Cadogan model, 202 last). Purchased at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York after a long day walking, which caused me to get the E width rather than the D. These would be better-looking shoes if they were the narrower width. Of course, they would be better-looking shoes if they were on 82 last instead of 202, too.

Evening

Continuing the theme of Saks-New York Edward Green purchases, monkstrap ankle boots in dark oak antique (Olney model, 606 last). These are both great-looking and unusual, and they would be perfect if they were about an inch taller. Either that or a half an inch lower. As it is, they hit my ankles right at the bone, which can be irritating.
