Ever wonder what how the story of Romeo and Juliet might have played out had instead of dying, they defied their families and eloped? If this engrossing memoir is any indication, happily ever after might have proved elusive. The Romeo here is Cornelius “Neily” Vanderbilt (a great grandson and the heir-apparent of the legendary Commodore). His star-crossed lover is the beautiful and gregarious Grace Wilson. They married against the wishes of his parents—a mystery since Grace was from a charming but respectable family (albeit with a reputation for social climbing). Partially disinherited, Neily and Grace still manage to live lavishly, and Grace, through sheer force of will, gradually became the Mrs. Vanderbilt of her generation. With mid-20th Century hindsight, their son, Cornelius, Jr., fascinatingly relates this Gilded Age story. Relying memory, personal records and family archives, he makes the case that his Vanderbilt grandparents were correct; Grace and Cornelius were not well suited. This English edition has a catchier title than its American counterpart and the better dust jacket illustration, featuring the massive malachite vase at 634 Fifth Avenue, the vast Vanderbilt chateau, which Neily and Grace inherited despite their ostracism (courtesy of an irrevocable trust). The author is their son, who became a journalist and author.

I’m really impressed with how well-made this item is. It has a clean, simple look but brings a touch of elegance to the area. It feels solid and durable, not flimsy or cheaply made. It fit perfectly in the space I intended it for and adds so much charm. Definitely a good value for the price. Would recommend for anyone trying to freshen up their home or outdoor space.

Comfortable. Period
They are comfortable which is most important for this item. If they’re not comfortable, you’re not gonna wear them but these are comfortable. They fit well and they don’t squish your toes cause they were open. I recommend them.

Great traction on bare floors and no sweaty feet!
I love to wear these with sandals -your feet won't sweat or slide around and you can still show off your pedicure! Great colors also and good value for the price. I did take off one star because one pair (grey)had two left feet!
