I have the same problem - I had two pairs of the spirit ballet flats and sent one to consignment because they would wear giant gouges in the back of my heels! Curious about these, they look elegant. But do they have that "Gabrielle Chanel" logo?

I am so making a pair of these! My yarn store has some really nice cashmere yarn and while it's too expensive to make a full sweater, this would be quite feasible. I'm sure I could figure out a way to incorporate sequins too!I tried these ones at soho. They were a bit itchy. Madison had sold out. I think perhaps the more expensive ones might be cashmere and more comfortable but they also seemed really popularView attachment 3834489
I have the black slingback w silver toe. So comfortablealso still looking for the flat beige. I probably should have gotten the heeled ones but I'm saving for the black booties

Tried on some ground control. Fell hard for this cute skirt. Very soft. Went up 2 sizes to get the longer length. They will cut it down for me

I wasn't crazy about the dress. It was cuter in the pic than in real life
Also tried jackets in the other thread
Super cute skirt!
Cafe it would be so cute on you. I loved the length but I'm too old to wear it like that for work. Hope it's as cute longer had to size up 2 for the length

Ohhh don't tempt me dear pigleto!! Good thing I'm not near a Chanel boutique right now [emoji85]
I think it should also look cute long! Be sure to share pics!
Yes they do. I really wish it wasn't there but it kind of blends in .
The color is excellent- a great light caramel (darker that the standard beige) and they are suede. I remember the spirit- I owned them also but didn't they have that loop/tab at the heel? That was uncomfortable for sure. This style does not have anything extra at the heel area.

Might be a good alternative for Pourquoipas boots ?
Thanks cafe ! I am hoping they can cut it down ok. The alterations lady was exclaiming at how thick the tweed was to cut through. Maybe it will be cute w my Paris Rome black jacket

Yes the spirit has that extra tab at the back. One time I was limping around they hurt so badly. I tried stretching them, moleskin, etc and finally decided it wasn't worth it.
I'm not a fan of the logo wear but I might tolerate it if it's discreet. Will have to try them out. Thanks!

Here is the pic of my arm warmers with price tag. Extremely soft and cozy 
Ok ladies I need some advice. Going to a "Manhattan style" wedding this weekend and I'm going to wear my lace dress. I think I'm going with the LBJ but not sure which shoes to go with. I also played dress up with some other items for fun.
I don't know why some of these are out of focus, sorry if you are wondering if there's something wrong with your eyes!
Option 1, LBJ with YSL tributes
Option 2, White jacket with Chanel pumps and my dog wondering what in the world I'm doing
Option 3, LBJ with Chanel pumps
Option 4, LBJ with louboutin pumps
Just for fun, with my data center track jacket
And with the spring cardigan

I prefer option 4! Not sure I like the Chanel pumps with the lace dress - they seem a bit clunky in this context and compete with the dress. The white jacket also looks nice with the dress!

LBJ for sure. Either the YSL or the Louboutins. I’m leaning towards the tributes because they are so comfortable and weddings are generally tough on the feet.
I agree the Chanel pumps look a little clunky.
Love it with the LBJ (such a gorgeous dress) but somehow envision sparkly/iridescent heels or red pumps
