Dear Pam,
I have in my closet right
now a pair of red cfm pumps with stiletto heels.
I haven't heard that saying of Joan Crawford's since the early 70s in
London. God, you brought back heaps of memories and laughs in one fowl
swoop. My CFM pumps were navy blue and worked a treat every time :) :)
I can't remember having red shoes, but I do remember persuading my mother that
I could not live without a pair of red leather bed-room slippers with a
moccasin front, high heels and a surround of fake black fur. I thought they
were wonderful and wore them until they wore out.

Dear List,
This thread of red shoes reminds me of a shoe poem my husband learnt as
a child. All I can remember is:
Black shoes, flat shoes, stamp them on the mat shoes.
That's the sort of shoes they'd buy!
The young person in the poem wanted some strappy pointed toe shoes etc.

My 16 year old daughter received her 'first' pay packet last week (has
done
a paper round for a year but it doesn't really count!) and promptly spent
most of it on a pair of red shoes. Winkle picker, 3 stiletto jobs in

In addition to red stillettos and clogs, I also had bright red
trainers/aerobic boots when I was diagnosed with RA and my feet needed
support. The physios gave me the choice of free made-to-measure hospital
shoes (yugh!) or buy-them-myself trainers. Well, which would you have
chosen? Because I was

I went out for my lunch and returning home called in the local card shop. A gentleman
held the door open for me and said I will hold any door for someone in red shoes. I
had forgotten that my canvas slides are bright red with white piping.

Hello all,
I never had a pair of red shoes. I did have a pair with very high cork
platforms which had white sandal straps on them. (I'm trying very hard to
remember.) And I also had a pair of very high black boots which my parents
hated. My daughter is working on her own style (she's 13)
I was sitting here thinking No, I never had red shoes then it came to me that when I
was about 14 I persuaded my mother to buy me some flat red shoes even though I knew we
were probably strapped for cash at most times. What became of them? Well I visited a
friend who had a duck pond and a
for Christmas. What a wonderful present that was. I wore them till they
literally disintergrated. That was a sad day sniff.

Hello all
Ahhh -- Red shoes!
You just had me on my knees checking the back corner of my
closet, looking to see if I still had that pair of red velvet flats. I
had them for at least 40 years but, as my feet expanded with old
age, I could no longer wear them. They were delightful to wear to

Thank you for the suggestion of mystery books to read.
Like you, I have trouble remembering titles and
authors not long after having read the books. I have
even been known to have checked a book out of the
