i came across these. and since i wear lots of shoes like those in the summer, i thought i should get them.
just because i like the lime

what do you think and reasons for your decision please

the link you gave leyla didn't link directly to the shoes, but i searched and found a pair of flip flops with lime green so I think that was them....

If I have the right shoes...personally I LOVE flip flops and wear them constantly but there really isn't anything special about these. They make me think of something from Wal-Mart...it's not even that there isn't anything special it's just that they look cheap to me personally. Maybe if I saw them in person I would think differently but I do adore the lime.

I think they're kind of nice, very basic, utilitarian shoes. Simple. I don't think they look cheap.

What I don't like is that the fabric goes all the way down to the sole, it would've looked nicer if it went down to the inner sole, sort of. I hope I'm making sense here... Just something I personally find annoying.

heheh thanks...
it was real late last nite and i often get these shopping urges when i dont make sense...
i'll probably wait till i can find better ones

tnx for ur input

leyla, did you find those on yoox? I was actually thinking of getting those exact same ones for the same reasons - love the lime green and California weather usually means I can get away with flip flop type shoes 3/4 of the year through (at least on weekends).

Nah, I just checked and they're out of my size. It's too bad, I really like the color and they look super comfy. I may get a pair of metallic gunmetal Costume National flip flops from Yoox though. B)

couldnt find them. they are around 165 euros?

 

[Angelica]

Leyla, they're listed as shoes: thongs if you search under Costume National. The color is described as steel grey, they look metallic to me. If I'm not mistaken the price in US dollars was 168, would that be about 130+ in euro?

I'll see if I can link a picture.
