Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 231, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 September 1912 — Shoe Novelties. [ARTICLE]
Shoe Novelties.
The colored silk stocking, especially deep purple and green, worn with the white shoes remain in style. Patent leather pumps are bound with a color to match the stocking. A French shoe that' will not find
favor with many Americans is of laced patent leather with colored velvet uppers. It is better to wear white shoes with nothing but white or light frocks. The white shoe has been done to death this season. It is bad form to wear them with cloth, silk or, indeed, any street costume save the linen coat and skirt. Do not lay In a large stock of shoes even at bargain prices. Styles change and, oddly, feet look much bigger in shoes whose cut and leather are out of date. If you value the appearance oi your feet adapt the style of shoe to your foot. Do not crowd the foot into an unbecoming shape because it is fashionable.
