I can't say my lust for platforms to wear with skinnies and long dresses isn't now satisfied. The sandals have already been worn for a night out with a sequin mini dress (forgot camera that night).
still can't get over how you found them at DSW. only in nyc! my favorite are definitely the suede wedges. if they had them in black, i'd be throwing money at you right now to pick them up for me! haha. i've lusted after those for so long now. can't wait to see more pictures of them!
You already know that I'm posting on this because I honestly, can't stop talking about it (and I'm sure my boyfriend would like me to this very moment). But thank you AGAIN Karen.
I looked at the wedges but I wouldn't be able to pull them off like you. My legs are currently on American Gladiator status, eek.
And @ someone who asked about sizing: I don't know about you Karen, but for me, I thought they ran a bit on the big side. I'm typically a 40 and ended up with two pairs of 39s. I sometimes have done 39.5 but never a 39. I guess that's just the cut of the shoe. I can't wait to post pics wearing them -- now I just need new clothes!
Hey Karen! I found you on lookbook.nu and loved your style! You inspire because I feel like I can finally look up to somebody who is my skin color! I don't feel so bad anymore looking at all the pale faces. Keep it up, darling! You changed this life :)
both of these shoes are amazing! so jealous and happy for u at the same time. the 2nd pair are awesome ive been lusting those foreverr and the fact that you got them for such a good deal is unbelievable! i will def go by a dsw, but i doubt they send amazing shoes like that to texas :( thanks for sharing though :) hope ur holidays were great & i hope you have a happy new years (being in NY and all)
Caylee - I bet the black was the first to vanish!! hope you had a good one too.
Cindy - the platforms are my true size. I am a US 10 and wear designer Euro sizing in a 41 so that's what I need here (I know 41 mean US 11 but in my experience it really works out to US 10). The wedges are VERY VERY NARROW though and very tight. May have to get them stretched.
Camille - thank you. Never feel bad about looking at others that aren't like you. Trust me you have your own uniqueness. I'm glad I've helped!
Anon - thx for being your usual wonderful self.
This Chicks Got Style - That's what I thought although I THINK the sandals win. I THINK....
I got 40 in wedges and 41 in sandals. They didn't have 41 in wedges or I would have got that. I'm having them stretched width ways as they are v narrow.
I am normally a 41 though which equates to US 10 (for me).
At union sq, next to nothing. At Long Island, alot more esp in the sandals!! they had browns, blacks and whites in them in most sizes and in the wedges maybe about 6 or less pairs? This is as of this time last week....
OMg! I can't believe they have 41 sandals there. Any chance you'll be down there again and I can ask you to pick me up a pair (for a finder's fee?) Those are so hot!
So jealous Karen!!! Love the Balenciaga sandals.....I remember MK wearing them all the time before! go DSW!!!!
