    My parents lived in London during the late 1960's/early 1970's and my Mom was obsessed with the Biba store on the High St.
    I was born there (London, not Biba! lol!) and this is a pair of my baby shoes that she purchased there. I remember when I was a kid seeing her multitude of platform boots and shoes in her closet and how I would secretly try them on and then promptly fall on my face.
    Unfortunately when she passed, none of her vintage clothes or the platforms were to be found. But thankfully she had given these to me years before. I don't know the exact date she got them, and I have not been able to find any others like them online, but I am thankful that I have them and will treasure them forever!
