The shoes were red. The story, called, The Red Shoes, is really a rather dire warning against vanity. If you want to read the story use the link below.

They were red!
A poor little girl, Karen, is adopted by a rich old lady after her mother's death. She is obsessed with her appearance. She buys a pair of red shoes and repeatedly wears them to church, paying no attention to the service. Her adoptive mother takes ill, but Karen deserts her, preferring to attend a party in her red shoes. Once she begins dancing, she can't stop. The shoes take over. She cannot control them, and they are stuck to her feet. She goes on dancing nonstop for months. She can't even attend her adoptive mother's funeral. An angel appears to her, condemning her to dance even after she dies, as a warning to vain children everywhere. She asks the executioner to chop off her feet. He does so, and gives her a pair of wooden feet and crutches. She wants to repent, but when she goes to church the chopped-off feet with the red shoes dance before her, barring the way. She becomes a servant in the parsonage, but does not dare go to church. Alone, she prays for help, and the same angel appears and brings the church into her room. She is so happy that she dies on the spot. No one in heaven says anything about the red shoes.

Red. A horrid tale worthy of the Brothers Grimm.
