But the staff was very friendly, me and my friend tried on the same pair. She's a 38.5 I'm a 36.5. I decided that this shoe should be my very first pair and told the salesman. My friend took another pair. So we left the store totally happy and smiling!

We decided to take a drink and cheer to our Manolos, so we headed off to a bar. We ordered our drink and took another look at our new shoes. But when i opened my box i thought the shoes looked really big! I turn them down to check the size...and they were a 38.5!!!

The salesman gave me the pair my friend tried!!! I was devastated! We ran back to the store but it was closed! So we called the store and the headquarter but there was nobody answering because it was weekend! And i had to leave on sunday, the next day! So I said goodbye to my Manolos and left them at the front desk at my hotel.
On monday i called the store and told them what happened. Fortunately my box was the right size just the shoes were wrong! So they rushed to my hotel exchanged the shoes and sent me the right size home. On wednesday i finally had my on pair of Manolos!!!!

That's the Pica Sandal in Fabric Blue

PS. How I got the second one is a whole other story...

Cute story! I'm glad it all worked out great. Those are truly stunning shoes!

Lisee21 - Very elegant shoes! What a great gift! What color is it exactly? It seems white to me but I can't tell if the whole shoe is one color. :)

much loved, much worn...

Beautiful color of sedarabys, and pedi
