Yes, Pil, the shoes are new. Fun gold cap toe shoes

You look terrific! May I ask what brand your fabulous gold shoes are?
I wear quite a bit of purple, also, and have concluded that it often looks better with grey than it does with black.

The gold shoes are the perfect bookend and the sweater looks fantastic!

You have some super cool and super comfortable shoes!! I could steal them off you!! YLF!!!

Absolutely beautiful Thistle! The purple is perfect for you and I love those shoes!!!

Thistle the simplicity of the outfit is what makes it so gorgeous. The shoes are TDF. Nice clean lines and no fuss. You look elegant and smart.

Wow, thistle, this is one of your bests! I so so love it all. Pants and sweatter are super, fluid fit, and THOSE SHOES! Faints, with my gold helmeth:-)

Oh lovely! Those trousers fit you exactly how I always want trousers to fit me (and never end up achieving)! And look at the bookending those wonderful shoes provide. If you have some extra time one morning, I'd love to see a close up of your jewelry. I know you're busy though!
