That's exactly what mine were like. Except they were a brown and camel stripe.

Payless

Note: THOSE aren't mine, just similar, mine are navy and cream with rope heel like the LBs.

Ocean, those are Payless they are the exact same thing as the Louboutins I saw a while ago

 

[oceanharlot]

I like that so many people likes "espardenyes" (thats how they are called in catalan, the place were they are made, Castanyer is also catalán)!!

Not my thing..Castaner Espadrilles are the best

I think that will be ones of those things i dont like now, but will grow on me and no doubt by next summer a pair will have worked its way into my life.
They remind em of what little old ladies were with 3/4 legth trouser and bluses in early spring. No offence !!!! Some of the ones hanne posted were ok though.
luv ya

you know...technically...i don't think cork and wood platforms and espadrilles are the same thing...

i always thought of espadrilles as having a hemp (rope) sole...possibly with a layer of rubber on the bottom...they may or may not have a wedge and they may or may not tie around the ankle...but it's the canvas upper and hemp bottom that qualifies a shoe as an espadrille...as far as i know...

I'm catalan, and here 'espardenyes' are the traditional shoes. People have worn it for ages in the villages and the countryside (not with high heels, of course).
But I don't like it very much

 

[shoesexy]

I have never been a fan of espadrilles.

You're absolutely right Softie, that's how I define espadrilles as well..I just saw others posting shoes that didn't fit those strick criterias..so I thought maybe my definition was wrong

 

[softgrey]

no...i think you are right ...oh stylish one...

 

[vintage_princess]

I remember my older sisters wearing them to the beach when I was younger..oh the memories!
