luckyme...I bought them on megasale too. they are nice and neutral and go with alot of sundresses in the summer! i wore mine yesterday

 

[luckyme]

GG, I knew you would if you found them. you're the ultimate manolo girl.

 

[guccigal07]

they are made of real lizard too!

 

[luckyme]

ewww, I just canceled them. if I don't eat it I won't wear it.

 

[guccigal07]

I love lizard texture. but to each their own.

Just ordered my Sudys from the NYC store! I got real lucky and snatched up the last 35 1/2's (Vegas had sold out already)! Girls- this is THE Manolo pinnacle for me ---- the legendary Sedaraby in ultra-luxe snake skin with a 4 inch heel all rolled into one! I've been dreaming of the silver ones but never imagined they'll come in snake! Oh my....still swooning over them. Zarina, thanks for all your tips and info! Hope you are rocking your Sudys as we speak!

Lucky, I love his thong sandals too! Was bidding a pair of brocades on eBay but didn't win. He comes out with so many beautiful versions consistently---- I'm sure we'll both eventually find a great pair!

You MUST post pics ... with outfit!!!!

Congrats!

Thanks, Diva! Just spoke with the bride friend and she's now thinking about having us bridesmaids wear matching shoes (and they will certainly not be Manolos)! I did leave out the price tag of my purchase so she won't feel bad.

Either way these are keepers! Oh yes I'll be building outfits around them just like w/ my other Manolos, so I'll post pics asap!

I've been trying to justify the $$$ by convincing myself that they'll be like jewels for my feet! B) I'd much rather take a pair of beautiful Manolos any day over jewelry!

You need to convince your friend that matching shoes is so 1998.

She CANNOT make you wear matching shoes! The matching bridesmaids shoes are always hideous!!!

Congrats! You will love them! I just wore mine for the first time and they were surprisingly comfortable!

 

[cocohokkaido]

Thanks, Zarina! Oh I'm glad to hear they are comfy!

My contact in the Vegas store said a woman came in the other day, saw the Sudy and began....weeping! It seems Manolo the Genius can have that kind of effect on people! Who knows, maybe when mine arrives I'd be overcome with emotions too!

okay ladies. I need yay or nay votes.

I just got these on approval. I really like them alot.

I am trying to be uber picky now...and to really define my taste in things. And only buy things I know I can stick on alot and walk out the door with my style...unless they are mega special like the cabbage shoes.

So here they are.

I really like the color alot and shape. I generally do not like clunkier more heavy on the foot shoes...but this is in the middle of being too clunky for me....and just classy enough

I really like them..but I need opinions...and outfit help...

so votes please! and why or why not

 

[luckyme]

^ I actually think they are really beautiful shoes but I am not sure they flatter your foot like others I have seen you wear. the toe box seems narrow and your foot a bit squished.

 

[guccigal07]

well I am not worried about the flattery.....I need to put a pad to push my foot back.

but I am sending back. If I have to ask about them that means doubt and doubt means no!

thanks luckyme!

 

[luckyme]

If I have to ask about them that means doubt and doubt means no!

totally agree. I am the same way.

 

[leyla m.]

gucci,

i adore those!!!

perfect for summer! the heel is high enough not to make the shoe clunky and i generally like sandals that are showing a lot of "foot".... and since you have a nice foot and summer coming up i would keep them for sure!

 

[guccigal07]

well I sent them back. I never have mixed feelings about shoes ever.

I either hate them.
I either like them enough but know they are not for me or I have something simular...
or I love them.

I just got mixed. I like them okay...but I guess the yellow heel and the teal threw me off. I think they are really cute and cute on....but....just mixed feelings so I mixed those feelings back to fedex and sent back!
