DescriptionPale gold-tone leather strapped shoes, with round toes and 2 1/4-inch high, rectangular Louis heels. The vamp of the shoes is long, about 2 3/4 inches. The instep is crossed diagonally by a double strap, which is permanently fastened via a piece of elastic to the outside of the shoe. The strap ends in a faux buckle: a horseshoe-shaped piece of gold-tone metal, set with a double row of rhinestones. The quarters are lined with suede-like leather; the vamp is lined with smooth, ecru leather. The sock lining is white faux leather. The sole is brown faux leather.
