Miss Marples, lady golfer or Gentlewoman Style? To me, the brogue is always in vogue. Church’s fancy, tasseled Derby shoe is currently shouting my name (available HERE). I wore orthotics for a while but eventually gave up trying to wedge them into shoes and boots, and decided to spend more on decent shoes instead. My feet have been absolutely fine and my Church’s Chelsea boots are 10-years-old and counting. And the tassel (on the brogue shoe) is removable if the flapping becomes a distraction.
