The Shoes

My holy grail of shoes is not by Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik or Christian Louboutin... but there's a chance they may be Salvatore Ferragamos.

They're a pair of plexiglass elevated heels worn over and over again by Marilyn Monroe and she customised them each time with ribbons to match the colour of her outfit.

She wore them for so many photo shoots as well as in the films "We're Not Married"...



...and "How To Marry A Millionaire":

If I had the shoes I think I'd also need this lovely little matching handbag to go with them:


Marilyn certainly liked to accesorise with plexiglass. She also had a pair of white fluffy mules with plexiglass soles.
