Agreed. Shoes would be complimentary to the outfit. If police knew they were black (or cream, or gold, or whatever) they could have thrown that colour shoe onto the mannequin.
I would imagine Karen's work associates would have a good idea of what Karen would wear with certain work outfits.
I've also wondered if Karen left a pair of trusty sneakers by the door for her walks.
We seem to be at cross-purposes about the shoes. As I see it, if Karen left the house voluntarily, she was wearing shoes. So if you can establish that no shoes are missing, that's evidence that she did not go voluntarily. Suppose Sarah does say, for example, that she always wore cream shoes with that outfit. You go to Karen's shoe stash, there are no cream shoes, great, some shoes are missing, either she left wearing them, either dead or alive, or maybe the murderer chucked them away afterwards together with her handbag, or maybe they wore out a few weeks ago, she put them in the rubbish and hadn't had time to replace them. But what if there are five pairs of cream shoes? Are any shoes missing or not? You don't know.
Take the other approach, you ask her husband whether she was wearing shoes when she left, what did she usually wear to work, well how tall did she appear to be, etc. Whether he killed her or not, he isn't likely to say she went for a walk bare-footed. If he says he thinks she was wearing cream shoes and you confront him with the five (or however many) pairs in the wardrobe, so what? What's to say she didn't have another, similar pair?
You people who insist that it must be possible for her relatives to say what was on Karen's feet . . . I'd like to know where you're taking the argument.
I wonder how Karen stored her shoes? A lot of women use those plastic see-through boxes on which they include a photo of the shoes in the box. This isn't a particularly new idea, and as someone who is a follower of fashion and clearly takes pride in her appearance (judging by the photos), it could possibly be something she does. It would be helpful if those sort of details were released - if only because if there is a sinister reason for her disappearance I'm sure the empty box has been tossed in the bin by now by someone attempting to cover their tracks (assuming she was wearing shoes normally stored in one) ... sometimes it's the smallest details such as this that could unravel the mystery.
If she had gone for a 'walk' however, then maybe she had a pair of old flats or sports shoes by the door. But I don't think she went for a walk at all. Why not a drive instead? Without knowing her it's hard to know how she'd act in any given situation but if it was me and I had a cute little car like hers I would definitely go for a drive to cool off.
JLZ - you do, of course, raise some very valid points. And she could very well have had multiple pairs of shoes that all looked the same.
See my post above - if she did catalogue and store her shoes using a library-type system then sweet - there are a few angles to explore from there. But if she tossed her shoes in the bottom of the wardrobe then who only knows what could be missing and/or thrown out by Karen prior to her disappearance.
There is no way she would've left the house barefoot - firstly because it's Winter; and secondly because, snakes!
Yes I think he could lift her, or drag her.Do you think BR looks capable enough to carry Karen's body to her car alone and carry it from her car to her graveside? Or do you think he would have had to have had help?
If so, who would have helped him that he could trust?

I don't think he was the cause of her disappearance. I believe events that he was involved with led up to her going missing but I don't think he actually carried out any act.
.
Why do you think that?
Do you think he got someone else to do it for him? If so, who?
Aren't you suspicious of him as he appears to have lied?
How could someone else have got access to her?
What scenario are you envisaging?
Hey Moreinfo, that is a super interesting series of questions ..... oh boy, yes, my mind has been so consumed with KRs shoes ...... but yes indeed, what the heck was BR wearing, completely relevant ...... excellent point there.I wonder if SR recalls what her father was wearing, before she last saw him that morning?
Are those clothes still at the house or did he discard them?
If he was dressed, does SR recall if they were the same clothes BR was in when she came back home?
Does BR have any missing shoes? He may have discarded his soiled shoes.
Will the cctv footage capture any details of clothing he may of been wearing when he was in the car leaving property? Are these the same as he was in that evening when he may have spoken to police in person?
Yes, Gig30, I don't think it's about money either. I reckon it's all related to AR, his phoning KR 10 days beforehand ......I'm going out on a limb here but I personally don't think it has anything to do with her inheritance, no enough money for it to be a motivating factor. Now that KR's brother appears to be in support of Borce I am leaning even more to the theory that AR is involved.
