LONDON - A pair of white peep-toe shoes belonging to Princess
Diana have fetched 1,800 pounds (USD 2,300) at an auction in the UK.
The white leather flat shoes are thought to have been worn by the late
princess when she was 19 years old, during the time she worked as a nursery
assistant.
The shoes were left by Diana at the house of an anonymous friend in
about 1977-78.
There are photographs of her wearing similar shoes while working as a
kindergarten teacher aged about 19, Dominic Winters Auction house said.
A note from the princess, discussing meditation and French philosophy,
written on Kensington Palace notepaper sold for 1,400 pounds at the auction,
'BBC News' reported.
Other items in the auction included a candid letter written by Prince Charles
two days after his separation from the princess, which was sent to interior
designer Dudley Poplak.
Three other letters written by the prince fetched between 230 pounds
and 320 pounds. (PTI)-
