Just scored the black bluebels at the neiman's outlet today for $187!!!! I still can't believe it. They were marked $312 and on the extra 40% off rack (by mistake), so they gave me the discount!! Same with a pair of manolos which I scored for $330 and a pair of YSL boots for $270!!! thank you to whoever put all the shoes on the wrong rack haha!
wow, congrats, those are great prices.
 
my Marant arrived today!

Got it from Forwardforward, it's on sale now! and i paid less than $300 with 15% off using their mobile app.

Love the color alot :smile1:

I just got mine just the same way that you did :D thank you for the awesome tip, loulourella!
I actually bought a really similar pair at Barneys .But when I saw your post I decided to let them go =)
The forum is such a great place for ladies who love shopping, just like us!
 
They look good.

Hi! Thank you so much for authenticating them! I just received these and would like to know from you or anyone else on the forum how can I take out the stains on the shoes? I know the seller said they were new..slightly disappointed because the listing didn't indicate that =( You can't see it unless I tie them..but still it's the fact it's there =(

It depends on what the stain is..not clear in the pics...but looks like it might brush off. Otherwise you could try a soft damp cloth. Good luck and congrats! :smile1:

Hi,

Thank you for your quick,nice,and helpful response! :smile1: It is beyond appreciated! I apologize for the unclear pictures. I was in a rush to post here as I kind of disappointed that they looked to be at least worn(saw some blue denim transfer on the inside)but then I looked at the amount I purchased them for and decided I won't be a headache to the seller for leaving out major details!;) LOL! I have taken pictures of the stain that can be seen here:

I tried to brush it off,not going away. It appears to be some kind of stain/mark. Not 100% sure. I will try a soft damp cloth! *crosses fingers that it works*Thank you!:cool:

I have denim transfer on my Khaki Bobbys and I just remembered that I read that a nail file could remove some of it. Or a rubber? Haven't tried them myself tho.......
 
So I was able to snag the Bluebel's but in a size 37/7. I figured I would give it a try since I'm a 7.5 and there are no half sizes.. I'm very sad to say it's a bit tight and will be returning it to Barney's does anybody know if there's any sz 38 anywhere? :(
 
Hi, could someone please explain me the main difference between the burt, bekket & basket isabel marant sneakers? I am about to make a purchase in burgundy color but the burt ones are more reddish than the basket style. I am getting all confused with the names. Why is the same style named differently?
I'll appreciate your help!

I'm not sure about the basket, but I think that's just the general term that Isabel Marant uses instead of 'sneaker'. So they're all baskets? The Burt and Bekett are the same, Bekett is just the older seasons name, although I think current season sneakers are still sometimes called Bekett. I own the Burt and Bekett and they're really the same. Are you buying the one with the cream cushion? Are these the ones?

Thank you ennna! I appreciate your answer. Yes, they are the same ones. The only concern I have is the "burgundy color". In my mind burgundy is more like a wine color. But this seem to be a more reddish. Is that correct?
 
Hi ladies, I've worn my new pair about twice now and it's just a little tight in the toe area. Also it feels a little uncomfortable around the ankle (on the inside). Has anyone had these issues and do the shoes get more comfortable after breaking them in??

Yes they're lighter! But darker than just normal red. Have you tried googling them to find more pictures of the colour? try searching with "burgundy burt" as style and colour name. I think they'll be easy to wear even though they're not really dark burgundy!

Is the toe area tight width or length wise? Width will stretch, but length will not... My toes hit the front in my oldest Beketts, probably because they've stretched in width and my foot slides forward (sold those by the way). At the ankle, do you mean that the velcro cuts your skin? Some of my pairs have that issue, but only when that part hits bare skin. I might try to cut the sharp edges. Overall, the shoes will stretch and you've only worn them twice so they probably haven't stretched that much yet.

I never thought about that but this totally makes sense. High tops are called 'over basket' and low tops like Betty and Bobby are simply 'basket'.
 
Finally managed to get a pair of IM wedge sneakers on sale! I always hesitated to buy online without trying them IRL first, so this weekend I went to bergdorfs and scored a pair of bobbys in a brown/olive color. including tax, I paid about $300. I was surprised that they still had 36 and 37s in stock!

Wow, I bought bobbys from Bergdorf, on sale, in late July. I'm very surprised that they still have shoes on sale. Lucky you.
