no matter who makes them, its a great shoe...ann gets the medal for original design and the others for jumping on the train.

yes definitely - it is such a simple concept that no one has ever thought of before!

well of course.

yeah...jeffrey campbell designed them exclusively for free people, so we're both right @tannixu

I was wondering if anyone saw a copy of the Givenchy spring 09 shoe collection?:

Can anyone say how those Sam Edelman boots fit? True to size, buy one size up?

 

[educo]

Those buckled J Campbells look good! I gave up on the Ann D KO's...I'm gearing up for the Sam Edelmans!! I heard end of july instead of august. Is there an actual date?

Women's Merona® Mireya O'Ring Flats - Brown Croc

Target.com

I just got these at Target because I really wanted some that were by Yves Saint Laurent but they were about $400. These look expensive but are only $24.00

Gold Dior Homme 6.5 Ankle Boot

hello kids,
its almost impossible for me to find a pair of the dh boots in a 39 but a couple of months ago i was on a website that sold a very similar style pair. im positive it was a uk site but unfortunately i didnt bookmark it

i know there is a style floating around with a plastic-y black heel, but im looking for the one with a comparable wooden heel. all help is greatly appreciated. thanks!

edit: they were NOT these

An even better knockoff by Jessica Simpson, on sale for $59.90 at Nordstrom!

purse addict
ive seen these shoes on jak & jil before, but fell in LOVE with them when watching Katy Perry's Thinking of You video. Beauuttifffulll. anyway, ive been looking for knock offs all over, but knew the shoe was from a few seasons ago so that meant not a lot of current sellers would make similar shoes to it. but lo and behold, i went back to GOJANE.com and theyre selling knock offs!
gojane
ok, theyre not the greatest knock offs, but still pretty cut outs eh?
