A little vixen


Is this not the perfect shoe to go with my shirt dress? It's intriguingly named "vixen" and comes from a shoe manufacturer whose by-line is, "we fit your orthotic."  Yes people, after a slow start, Kumfs have struck gold again.

Things got off to a shakey start this season. There was an alarming number of lame lace ups, so much so that I gave up hope and went to an outdooor sports' shop to find a more becoming shoe. 

Perfect as this peep toe may be, I cannot think of  a single occasion where I might actually wear them. There's not much call for heels in the sandpit. I think if I bought these they might mock me in their virgin condition from my shoe tree.

This is where the Americans have a distinct advantage. Most of the stay at home seamstresses I follow on Pattern Review are always whipping up a lovely new dress for church on Sunday. And if you check out the photo there's always a sweet little heel to go with it.   I want to introduce you to 2 of my favourites. 

These women have 8 children between them. How do they do it?
