1970s OK Shoes

I was browsing Instagram and at the same time editing photos for my shop. The universe brought me to Tavi Gevinson's account. Just in case you don't know her, she was one of the youngest style and fashion blogger I used to follow and read back in 2008. (Read her blog here.) Now, she's an author, and the founder / editor of Rookie Mag.

She posted this over a year ago.

If anyone knows where I can find this Miss America shoe spotted in an issue of Seventeen from 1972 please HMU

OMG! I've held a pair exactly like that. In fact, I sold one. I would have kept it but it was 3 sizes bigger for me. I acquired it in 2007, but it took me many years to list it in the shop.

It was so pretty, I really wanted to keep it. Sold it to a lady in Pittsburgh in early 2012.
