An apology: to the woman in Harvey Nichols, to whom I said, in an unguarded moment as I swung past, “It’d be a great look if you could walk in the shoes”. Mea culpa: I immediately regretted sounding so catty because really, you did look great (short coal-black cape-like coat, deep blue pencil skirt, towering black suede heels, red lipstick and hair like Eva Marie Saint, above: now will they see?).
My only defence is veritas* - you really couldn’t walk in those shoes.
*Veritas convicii excusat, a principle in Scots law that the truth of a statement exonerates the maker from liability - a defence to a charge of defamation.

Hmmm, not convinced about the cape. But EMS's hair is great. And my pair of towering black suede heels (Nine West) are great too. Why, I can even walk in them if I cling to a bannister or hand rail...
