They are last season so they are no longer available, I don't think. Sorry. :( The yellow version of the pair I couldn't find (first pic) is available on ebay in a 38.5, though.

oooh! those ones!!!! i almost bought them in lilac last year!!! i don't know why i did not get them! i think because i found them way too high and my calf was getting stressed out just from trying them on in the shop! oh i probably should have gotten them... but my legs aren't as pretty and long as that lady's in the mag. i suppose that was the other reason... or did they not have my size. oh i can't remember now. but i ended up with a pair of tan boots instead (from the same season F/W 07).

as for the style numbers of those two pairs, i actually don't know. i basically called in and said "the strappy brown ones and that ones with lots of stones and sequins with straps around ankles that were on the runway". let me see if SA can tell me their style number.

[bagpunk]

woohoo. i am glad. they are 40% off now and SA is good enough to keep them for me! will post once i get them.

[bagpunk]

well, i think just going out to drinks and some dinner things. i might wear them with jeans and a nice top or something. i live in my jeans. would not know what to do without them. and hate my calf with a passion. so i am searching for a nice ankle-teaser pair of pants. have not found any so far. so this will be a perfect solution to dress up my jeans. or, a nice long marni dress. or some long smart casual dress. these shoes will help with giving a bit of oomph, so i look nice without looking like i am trying to hard heheh

LOL thank you, but I take my request back - don't bother your SA. :) I actually bought the pair that sara has in her signature on friday. I found them on sale here. :)

I LOVED those in the rust/orange. I was so disappointed I couldn't find that exact shoe, but I do love the ones I did get.

[sara999]

no way!!!! where did you find them!? how much!? are they TTS??? i will move heaven and EARTH to get them!!! what do they look like? what is the colour match?

hahah *breathes*

[redlittlewing]

^ sara, I got them from the Nordstrom in Bellevue, WA, they're being shipped to me so I haven't tried them yet, but bagpunk said hers ran TTS so I just went with that. The way the SA described them to me, they are the ones in your signature pic. :) They were $459.90 on sale (50% off), but in a couple weeks Nordstrom will probably go to 60% off, so you might wait til then, though I'm not sure if they ship overseas...:/

[bagpunk]

ooo RLW, you have better shoe luck than any of us! so yours are the ones with red and blue stones? and dark chocolate leather straps? (vv mine: green and brown stone with tan leather straps). and half price???

i just calculated how much i could have saved if i waited for the sale, almost $1000!!!! but i was so anxious that they might run out of my size! i am so kicking myself right now...

[redlittlewing]

^ Haha, not better shoe luck (lol otherwise I would get all the shoes I want for super cheap) but just good luck in this one case! I just happened to catch them right when they were on sale and still had a pair in my size. Yep, I got the pair with the red/blue/yellow stones and the dark chocolate straps. They were half price at Nordstrom but I also had a gift card so they ended up about $235ish.

Aw, I hate when that happens, you end up paying more than you could've, but I guess it's worth it since you love your shoes and you'll get wear out of em. :)

[bagpunk]

sara! sara! what size are you?? there are several on EBAY!!!

[sara999]

i saw!!! i'm a 37 :( and i don't have any cash!!

[brigadeiro]

How I wish these ran big like my other DVN pair, as I'd the jewelled pair, but I'm a 38 (missed out on the other pair ). But OMGosh! 50% off?!? If there's a size 38, I'd die and go to heaven!

[bagpunk]

oh did you miss out on the 38 on ebay? so sorry to hear that it is hard isn't it? these shoes. unlike bags. you must really find your size. i can't even wear anything 0.5 size smaller or bigger. i have some really nice pairs that i can't wear because i thought half a size was not a big deal.
