i havent got them yet, i hope theyll be here by next monday, the last time i bought something from ioffer, it took exactly two weeks to arrive, so i hope they fit right. im not sure with these shoes but what ive experienced with peep toe shoes is to size down half size to a whole size.

Thank you so much. I agree with you. All the CL VPs have been slightly big on me so far. I'm a true 6 and all 36 were too big so I ended up selling or giving away to gals who are 6.5.


HOWEVER, I once ordered a nude VP and I sized down (those seem to come from a diff factory) and they were SMALL

anyone bought the Chanel camellia rainboot ?

I'm going to get a pair. I tried the auths, and they are TTS. However, I do not have the skinniest calves so I plan on sizing up one size. So getting a 37 instead of a 36.

well, its the risk when buying shoes you cant put on first

 

[socaligurl80]

true dat but it's sooo frustrating. The leopard pigalles and the Jolies were both 36 but still, the pigalles were almost ONE INCH smaller than the Jolies. I ended up giving the Jolies to a friend who is a size 6.5 to 7. Eeek

OMG! I know! How cute are those? I was kinda looking at them but i think I might get something like Burberry ones or something. Just because I would feel that I would have to always wear my pants tucked in so everyone could see how cute the flower and everything was. Are you thinking about getting them?

Oh boy.
Okay, how about this.
Is there a reputable seller on ioffer that sells good quality CLs, that some of you have purchased from before?
If no one here has bought the Ariella studded bootie, then maybe at least if some of you have found good experience with CLs from a seller, then that could.. help my decision.

then i need to size up too..


shelleybean: i want it, but not sure if i'd be getting them soon coz summer is coming here in oz. and u're right the flowers must be shown, otherwise it's just another rainboots..LOL..would it be weird to wear them with shorts?

I haven't really checked this thread out in detail but was wondering if anyone has purchased any of Catty's shoes?? She has some really pretty shoes for sale, but I haven't really convinced myself to buy them yet.

I purchase a Chanel ballerina flats, a friend of mine bought CL boots in grey suede.. they are perfect and gorgeous!

 

[daniellat]

Almost everyone here has bought her shoes.

Oh, I see!! That's so good to hear because I love dealing with her for my handbags. I was wondering though... how do people buy shoes before trying them on? I've always been too scared to buy shoes online because of this reason. But I want to go for it and try ordering something..

 

[PinkPrincess113]

Ya just gotta take risks! I buy shoes online all the time so I kinda know when to size up or downish. I usually read reviews before buying so read through this thread to see if anyone discussed sizing.. also read past transactions from ioffer sellers. they will sometimes leave feedback saying "too small" or "too big". i went for a 38 for my YSLs on ioffer and one pair was too big and one was just right

 

[parkmin90]

pinkprincess113 - thanks so much for your helpful post! Since we both like bags and shoes... I'm glad I've found someone who has similar obsessions! I like taking risks so I think I'm going to study this thread more for sure.

I know, I feel exactly the same way.
Something that has helped me has been browsing through past pages in this thread. It's difficult though, cause yeah sure it's much less than the auth prices, but it's still $200 or so, that you may be blowing on a pair of shoes that doesn't fit...
It's tricky!
I always ask if the shoe is true to size, but I get the feeling the seller just says yes usually but doesn;t actually know...

hmmm. I have pretty big feet compared to my height (size 8.5-9) and I am 5'3''. Also, my feet are kind of on the wide size (I make my feet sound like big giants.. haha). It's always hard finding the perfect shoes. Maybe I should stay away from buying these shoes online?

 

[piperbelle]

Some sellers will provide insole measurement - that's a pretty big help. I've gotten by as others have mentioned - reading feedback on sizing from iOffer buyers, this thread, etc. I have bought four pairs of rep CLs and only one pair didn't fit.

 

[KatInBoots]

I don't think I actually have Jacky's contact/website
Is it the luxbcn ?

 

[KatInBoots]

Ignore that /\

Anyway, so once more...

Does anyone have any advice on me buying a pair of CL studded Ariellas??
I guess no one on this board has bought em.
I've been looking on ioffer for a loonng time, and before I make the purchase I just wanna know if there's any question I should ask the seller or anything I should look out for ...

It took me a while to get pictures of my shoes but finally here they are. Theyre awesome, i love them both, pictures dont make them any justice, cause theyre gorgeous irl. the quality is nice, theyre not spot on but very close, very close. Both shapes do are spot on though..

They both have a padded insole but the very galaxys are more comfortable because of the hidden platform. The pigalles are all real leather aswell as the very galaxys insole.

Both are very detailed and very well made, the ony thing i noticed with the pigalles was that they have a film that peels off on the sole but at first sight it might look like it has black stains. The studs are heavy metal not cheapy plastic thingys. Overall, great shoes!!
