I have a few 'loafers' in 'soft as kid leather' and other than work, I tend
to live in them when out shopping etc.  (Indoors, I just don't wear shoes).

grin.  If I am right, they will match with a simple silver flat braided chain
necklace.

I might want to look at some copper pieces.  Mostly though I'm happy with
quality costume bead sorts of things.

Snicker, I am *sure* Mom doesn't have any of those!  She'd have some really
pricy stuff except most was sold by her Mom to keep things running and I
think Mom sold all the rest except one ring (of the stuff worth much) back
when we 3 kids were toddlers.  She invested the money and has largely been
living off it since (or the proceeds of houses we 'flipped' before that was a
term).
