balenciagaaaaaaaa

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).
Scored at DSW.

    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!

    the second heels are pure love!

    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 🙂

    they definitely belonged at dsw

  46. tres tippy says:

    what great finds especially for DSW! hope you had a good christmas 🙂

  47. Karen says:

    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….

    Hope everyone had a great Christmas!!

  48. Swank Heights says:

    whaaaa I love them!!!!!!!!! You should buy more and sale them online for those of us who don’t have a DSW. =)

  49. 'Lee says:

    OMG!! I’m so jelous of this shoes! both are fab!!

  51. Sabrina says:

    OMG, they’re amazing!

    Karen, so did you get a size 40 or a 41? What was available at the time you went to the shop?

  53. Karen says:

    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….

  54. kelly says:

    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!

  55. MODA CADISI says:

    I love the sandals, they’re always on my list, good buys 🙂
