<p>[QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 321960, member: 27"]This piece reminds me of a story about a friend of mine who was into vintage clothing in a big way. One day he goes to a thrift store and sees a pile of old shoes in their original boxes,and recognizing high end names on them he buys the lot.Clipped onto a pair of satin evening shoes from the 40s was a pair of diamond dress clips wich he later sold for a tidy sum! I hadnt thought about that (or him) in 30 years. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Ps... I wanted to add that woman had like size 4 feet ! he couldnt sell those shoes for anything!</p><p>Pss... I cant BELIEVE I remembered the name of the shoes ! I tell ya,Im on fire today !
