Sadly, they are also WAY beyond my price range. Do you know of anything similar for max $120? I know that is a huge request, but really that is even a stretch on the budget.

These shoes are lovely. (before she moved to the little house in the desert she was ruthless in the closets -- and made a little money. What a fool.)

The style was named after a character created by the Buster Brown shoe company. ("Buster Browns" were also a type of shoe--a lace-up oxford worn by girls and boys.) Today a Mary Jane is any shoe--flat, heeled, pointy, round-toed--that meets those criteria.

Please define for me what makes these pumps Mary Janes? I have never before seen the Mary Janes with the pointy toes or the high heels. Is it that their name is “Mary Jane”, perhaps? I am greatly puzzled.
