Manolo Blahnik

[wintotty]

wintotty FYI those look GREAT on you

Thank you!! I LOVE them.

They do run really big. I normally wear US size 8, and for CL very prive and lastic I wear size 9...because I have wide feet. For this manolo, I bought size 7 1//2, and still a tiny bit big(like my ankles were slipping out a little), so I put padding in them and that fixed a problem. I didn't even try size 7, because I know they won't be wide enough for me.

I really HATE my SA who suggested me to try this beauty on today

well they look great on you. I have narrow feet so this style is always a bit odd on me. I got married in yellow suede sedaraby...with no rhineston buckle

Gucci, I saw your pic of yellow one, they are gorgeous. Now I'm a fan of manolo, esp. Sedaraby style.

I have a question, do you usually treat your shoes before you wear them? Like protective spray or something? I've never own a satin fabric shoes, and am afraid I'll ruin them by stepping on something or sudden rain.

 

[guccigal07]

win, no I don't treat them. I find all shoes are amazingly like tough...I used to be like on no don't wear but I am smart about it. if its raining I don't wear anything nice. plus I get into the car from my garage and get out usually under something covered but I do wear them out alot..........but I am just smart about it.

Oh wow, that's a really cool twist on the Sedaraby.

I have the silver leather pair and find that they run big too, I usually wear size 7 and I'm size 7 in those, as opposed to 7 1/2 in most other Manolos.

Is that camouflage satin? How cheeky yet sophisticated! I love that Manolo sticks to his classic shapes but change up the material for different seasons. I would love to own that model with the rhinestone buckles one day. Yeah, his d'Orsay models run bigger, for some reason. I fit into a 35 although I'm a 6 1/2! Have you tried using scotch guard or other fabric protectant? It might stop stains but I'm not sure about snags, though. Satin snags SO easily!

I was a bit hesitant about the sedaraby in camo but now that I've seen it I must say they look GREAT. I love them on you. Eff...I need more money!

 

[leyla m.]

i wish i didnt cancel my NY after all!! LOL
oh well next time

 

[guccigal07]

leya, let me know if you need help getting them!

Wintotty these are 105mm right? look on your box on the front....and see if there is a number 105 anywhere. that means 105 mm or 4 inch heel.

I ordered mine yesterday right before wintotty posted. now I wish I did fedex 2 day instead of ground. DANG IT.

oh well. fab.

Does anyone know about Blahnik's limited line of Marie Antoinette shoes? Aparently, he's is coming out with them in October- I have to have them!

 

[guccigal07]

where did you hear about that?

 

[billbill]

hi guccigal

still questions for your oxford. may i know the sizing of it? runs large or small compared with manolos like mary jane or sedaraby? also, would you pls ask your SA whether they accept international order? manolo shops here are not helpful, whenever i ask styles which they don't know, they simply said "there're styles available in other places but not in HK".. seems imply me not ask anymore.. =(

thanks a lot

 

[wintotty]

Thanks everyone! I recommend everyone to get them

gucci, I'm at work so I can't check my box, but I measured them now, and they are 4 inches.

 

[guccigal07]

billbill, no international orders but Neiman Marcus does accept international. I would go half a size up from your normal pump size. worst case you can put an insole.

wintotty! you are wearing to work today! yeah!
