It would be wonderful to see some modeling pics, if possible! I'm dying to see how they look on!

This shoe gives me heart palpitations! And has been for months lol. I'm not a bling bling gal at all and usually shy away from princess-y rhinestones or shiny adornments but these Balmain ones are just the ultimate rocker chic. I don't know how these shoes run sizing-wise b/c I've yet to try them on IRL, but they are made by Giuseppe Zanotti (it says so on the label, Giuseppe for Balmain) so they likely run like other Giuseppe shoes.

Some photos I found on ebay:

BALMAIN ones

ZARA ones

Me too! I love them as much as the Kirkwood Pearls, although I wish they were a tad bit higher - 4 1/2"!

I would really love to see some modeling pics of these shoes, they are 2die4!

there are some modeling pics in the chanel mommy thread!

I've only seen the flats before on cheap websites. I should have known they were inspired. These are hot!

There are lots of close up pics on shoebunny.com here:

I will try to get my friend to model her shoes for us one day. They are just ridiculousy gorgeous.

Has anyone here ordered them? I've been considering placing an order but I would love to try them on before commiting, I'm worried that these shoes require skinny ankles like Jennifer Connely.

Sinful Indulgences · Mar 21st, 2009, 02:21 PM

Thanks Kamilla850, I've bookmarked that page! What beautiful pictures, I'm drooling as I look!

It'd be great if your friend can do some modeling pics!

I'm afraid to place an order too, because I don't know how the sizing goes and these shoes are $$$! Could you ask your friend what the sizing is like? Many thanks!

Thanks for the heads-up, cuteangel7777!

I found the picture in the Chanel Mommy thread. It's a picture of the Zara version, not the real Balmain. That's what I'm looking for, but it's nice to see the Zara on, thanks!

Just found these, here are a few more pictures of Jennifer Connelly in her Balmains!

These shoes are HOT!!!!!
