The product description on these lovely velvet heels say that they’re 1940s Hollywood glamour inspired, but with all the vintage footwear we’ve featured here on Retro Vintage Shoes, these look more at place in the 1920s to the 1930s.

I can just imagine these shoe on the set of “Midnight in Paris”, a movie still in preproduction but has already been confirmed to have a storyline that takes place in the 1920s.

Anyway, which era these shoes come from doesn’t matter as much as the fact that these can be purchased now. These round toe t-strap mary janes in leather and velvet are available at ShoeBuy.com for just $49.95.

Complete your outfit with these modern day dresses in a 20s-inspired draped silhouette, a modern take on the flapper dress, and a simple dropped waist shift dresses:
