What a fun collection! How lucky to find so many pairs in good condition at Last Chance... I've heard (through tPF) that it's hit or miss and it looks like you've "hit" big time :)


Thank you so much :) Yeah it can be pretty inconsistent, most of the Jimmy Choos I come across at Last Chance are missing heel taps, cracked heels, ripped/stained leather, etc. etc...but the Manolos are usually in perfect condition (minus the pen mark with the price on the sole...but who cares about what the sole looks like unless it's a Louboutin pair, right?)

Funny that's exactly why I've weened off Louboutin's. Once I wear them and the red sole starts to scratch it doesn't look so pretty. I've brought all my Louboutin's to the shoe maker and had them put on red rubber soles so they all look homogenous. I don't care about any writing on the soles it covers, I just want the sole to look all red and not scratched off.
 
Hey guys, has anyone noticed this with any of their heels? I bought a pair of Camparis (from Last Chance) in 36.5 about a year ago, and they ended up being a bit too big. Fast forward a few months and I spotted another pair at Last Chance, this time size 36 and they fit perfectly (have yet to decide what to do with the other pair; sell? Keep for period bloat days?).

However, I noticed that the heel of the new pair seems to angle out away from the shoe a bit so it isn't perpendicular to the floor. Has anyone noticed this before, and if so, is it possible to have a cobbler fix?

I've attached pics of the two different sizes so you can see the difference in how the heel is angled. It's even more apparent when I'm wearing the shoes.ImageUploadedByPurseForum1395202386.655726.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1395202403.754877.jpg

What do you guys think?

I don't own this particular shoe but Manolo's heels do change as the years go by. You can easily date a shoe by the shape of the heel, I actually sold a beautiful pair of black alligator high heels because the shape of the heel was just too dated for my taste.
 
I thought you ladies would be interested in seeing the difference between the flesh and nude suede bbs. I wanted nude but they were sold out in my size so I ordered flesh, having no idea what it would look like because the online photos make all the nudeish shades look the same!

Well nude 37.5 was finally restocked at Barney's and here are the results: flesh is a paler, pinker soft tone perfect for spring and the nude is a warmer tan color that is seasons was and I think (hope!) less likely to dirty.

They are quite similar, but both so pretty and just different enough that I think it's worth keeping both... Thoughts?

They're adding new shoes constantly, can't keep up. Here are just a few more.
