Is it ok to ask a non-Chanel shoe related question in reference to a Chanel bag here?

OK--strange beginning, but I have the crackled patent leather classic flap (also referred to as the diamond shine flap) in bordeaux. It is gorgeous and I was thinking of getting these shoes if the colors look good together, but I don't know about trying to *match* a Chanel leather color to a lower-end shoe.

I think you can pull if off nicely. I am also looking for a nice pair of patent shoes to go with my Vinyl Cabas.

there's no need to try and buy only high end shoes to complement your Chanels. I think are great!
I don't have any 'high end' kicks.

I wear a Prada coat,Chanel bag with a Gap t shirt..who cares!as long as you like your stuff..THATS all that matters!! Get the shoes!

 

[Claudia]

absolutely get the shoes....in my opinion, the more stunning the bag, the less the shoes have to match

i am at the point now where i sometimes put on flipflops with my Chanel bags............it looks individualistic and effortless...............

^Did it today.
I had Sailor pants on {the ones w/ the buttons on the front} a navy/white stripey shirt and navy/white flip flops on and carried by dark white Vintage Tote

Oops, just re-read the post and saw you're looking for bordeaux!

 

[juliamike]

They're surprisingly comfy.

Swanky, you surprise me! I thought for sure you would have bagged some Chanel shoes by now!!

 

[Swanky]

can you inagine!?
I really have very little need for 'nice' shoes, my little ones are still so young.
I'm a flip flop and pull on sneakers {Nike Free} kinda gal.
Dior and LV have some swanky flip flips this year though, I may try some out

Hey, don't forget Chanel has made flip flops in the past - these are from last year!!

To tell the truth, with a 2 year old and another due in June, I should really be looking at "swanky flip flops" (love it) instead of 4 inch heels.

^LOL! Hear that!

The problem I have found w/ the swanky ones is my feet aren't right. . . like my instep isn't high enough and the straps just kind of gape on me.
