The yellow rose was used in the early 1900s to symbolize voting rights for women. Birdies honored this history in their limited-edition capsule collection of hand painted flats to encourage all women to register to vote. These are brand new in the box. I should have traded for 8.5 but waited too long. If you know the Birdies brand, they are built for comfort. These are no longer available and it’s the perfect season to wear them! Make an offer!
