I wore these boots all four weekends of the Dickens Christmas Fair. I spend most of my day there either standing or dancing, so comfortable footwear is very important. I did buy a half size larger, and that was a good idea. Once broken in, these are excellent boots to be in all day long.

Great fit, can wear it all day, just the right height, (can wear it in my Jetta), not exaggerated, subtle flare and smooth transition to flat top is perfect, The delicate side feathers were unexpected and a welcome embellishment.

Loved this hat, although it was slightly too small. Maybe it should set on a mound of hair, but my hair is short. It matched a dress I have perfectly and the quality is good.

I was desparate for this 1800 costum - as I was a guest speaker at a Toastmaster Christmas party.I did not leave enough time --but the Emporium staff really put themselves out to redajust my order for stock availability to fill my order and have it in the mail.I received the costum in time to iron the blouse and steam the skirt.In short I was the "bell of the ball"- thanks to the Historical EmporiumElizabeth Frost

though a nice pair of boots they did need some breaking in. the soles were slippery and i slid around carpeted surfaces for a few days so wear those boots in early. also its been a few weeks and I've already lost 3 of the upper lacing pins. i may have been lacing my boots too tight but that's the way i like them. other than that i love theses boots there aesthetically pleasing with a simple design and an air of sophistication.

Excellent price for such quality. Fabric is slightly less subdued than pictured, but that could be caused by my display. Don't let the absence of front pockets discourage you, this coat comes with storage space aplenty. One inside breast pocket opens vertically while the other opens horizontally. The hidden pockets in the tails take some practice to access easily, but they are indeed out of sight. The back is gathered at the tails, giving a very fit appearance to the wearer. Demands compliments from passers-by.

You need to fix your paypal payment method. I had a horrible time with it and even though I had plenty of money in my Paypal account it wouldn't go. I finally had to call and order over the phone with my credit card. If I hadn't needed the item so badly you would have permanently lost a customer.

Very good service, product arrived a long time before the expected date. A little difficulty using the online payment system. Unfortunately I cannot recall the exact issue; if it arises again next time I purchase something, I will detail it. Otherwise, great presentation, wonderful selection of high quality products.
