Indeed!
Apparently these ankle busters were hand made by Inabilac, a Parisian shoemaker in 1945. Sigh. Be still my vintage heart. How gorgeous. I am completely smitten.
This is an image from a card I just had to purchase the other day (I think we have previously discussed my addiction for such things?). Anyway. The card is from a gorgeous range printed and made in the UK by The Alternative Image Company Ltd. They have a gorgeous range. My favourites are the classic black and white, and the cool jazz greeting cards. They even have some cool film posters. There is also a lovely vintage Christmas collection too.
I found a gorgeous little selection of these cards at a favourite little shop in my town. I think I will have to go back for more!

Now that is some shoe - I am afraid I don't think I would even manage a small walk in those - but totally glam!

I saw a pair like that last night while sitting in Starbucks and even made my husband turn around and look at them! I have never seen anything like it before!
Too cute although I do not think I could pull them off!
My gosh these are outrageously high. I would surely cripple myself within three steps. VERY sexy though and great photo image!
Yikes! There would be many, many sprained ankles if my feet ever got anywhere near a pair like that!
Omg, what amazing shoes! I like them so much!
I saw your blog and I think it is full of great pictures: you have a new follower! :)
I hope you visit my blog, too.

they look so strange. but awesome!
Stunning! Vintage is the best!
Oh wow, they are insane aren't they. But they look so stylish in their own way and well made! On the right legs though they'd look incredible. P.S. Thanks for popping by my blog and for your comments. Glad you like my vintage finds! It's the way to go isn't it. Pruxxx
P.S. Hope you had a great day with your sister. Px
Those are gorgeous, and very glamorous. But I can't imagine having to walk in them.

That shoe would be the death of me!
I couldn't agree more! Although I'm not sure how I would be able to stand on them, they are so fabulous! Enjoy the gorgeous day, Kellie xx
I LOVE shoes like this!! How cool! I'm not sure how I'd walk in them but maybe I could sit quietly in the corner while evryone admired my heels!
These are soooo adorable.I heart all things vintage. =)
Pretty incredible....just goes to show it is hard to come up with a new idea!
oh my wow...i love heel, i stare at them, i touch them...but i can't wear them, because i would fall, because i have no balance.
What fabulous shoes!!! I would have loved these when I was younger.. they certainly would have given me the height I yearned for.. haha
Hope you have a fabulous week.. Love you 'thanks' post... I really should focus on those things I am grateful for too!!! ciao xxx Julie
