Ladies, I need some opinions. I've been offered the bazils in black or the beige/white. I'm leaning towards the beige because I'm afraid the black will look like any other regular high top sneakers and I have way too many black shoes anyway (not sneakers, heels), but I want something different. On the other hand, the beige is more prone to getting dirty. My mom thinks I should get the black because if I wear it with black leggings, it will give me the illusion of longer legs, hahah.

So, Opinions please?

I had the exact same dilemma, and was offered the same advice from my mum (good to see some things are universal.. hehe)
I ordered the beige / white as I have more casual clothes in lighter colours - taupe, olive, beige etc..
All my work clothes are darker and I have a lot of black heels and boots that I already wear. Since these won't be worn to work, I went with what went well with my casual wardrobe. Just my opinion though :)

Great minds think alike! Do yours get dirty easily? I get upset when I come home and see dirt marks on my shoes. I really like the beige but the thought of getting them dirty :(

I haven't got mine yet, but I scotchgard the crap out of all my suede boots and shoes ;).
Saying that though, black suede looks dirty after a while too, instead of going dark like lighter shades do, it just goes lighter..
 
i was on my way home from work and saw my size in the new all black bazils and ordered them on my iphone! SO excited i couldnt believe it. i was upset tho that la garconne charged my debit card even when they said they dont until it ships.

i called the lady and she said that it's only pending and the transaction should go away within a few hours... we'll see about that.

either way i can't wait til they arrive! so worth it.. even if i have to pay the extra $150 diff from matches.:D

The la garconne charge has been on my card since Saturday, still there late Monday. I'm also still waiting for them to credit my card for a pair of Reas I returned that they have since re-sold grr. Learned my lesson, it bazils pop up on matches, mytheresa or nap I'm ordering stat. So much stress for a pair of sneakers, it IS a full time job getting these babies!

Congrats on the Bazils! I love mine. Anyway, when I ordered the Rouge Bekkets from La Garconne, the charge was on there for a few days.

can I ask you if the anthracite ones are a dark colour?I'm on the waiting list in a store and I don't know if I should wait or get the grey/taupe on line..I'd rather have a darker colour,tks!

Yes they definitely are a darker color. I think you should go for the grey ones rather than grey/taupe if you like to have a darker color
