My dearest Jane —
Leaving aside the respectability of the wearer (a creature whom, I assure you, is a relatively modest individual in this strange estate), whatever could she have been thinking when she selected this footwear?
This shoe offers little protection from the vagaries of weather which, alas, is still as unpredictable as our own. Worse, the extreme elevation of the heel causes the wearer to be pitched forward in such an exaggerated manner that her gait is changed into the clumping of a cart-horse!
And, believe me, my dear sister, this is by no means the most outlandish example of clothing I have seen. It is merely the first such that, since now I have begun to recover from the shock of arrival here, so reduced me to girlish giggling that I scarcely could smother it!
With much love and affection from your own
