Congrats! They look amazing (BTW, your feet look fine, too!)! :nuts: Liv, what is the color of the pink ones? they are TDF!

Thanks so much Misstake! I bought the pink ones on eBay from a US actress Sandra Taylor. They were worn twice but didn't come with their original box so I'm not sure of the official colour name. They were a limited edition model made specially for Saks.

I'm hoping these are the same color shoes but just want to double check with you ladies

Are these http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/yves-sa...are&siteId=QFGLnEolOWg-FP5MiCukME3f65G_RDTbLg
the same as these http://www.ysl.eu/en_GB/shop-products/Women/Shoes/Sandals/ysl-tribute-high-heel-sandal-in-tan-patent-leather_804544276.html?recref=#!{"products":{"193098B8I00":{"size":"37","color":"2733"}}}

The YSL website calls them tan while nordstrom calls them camel! I just thought it might be different lights!

Hi there,
I did a little research after looking at the two pics. The French YSL site calls the colour 'pain d'epice' (spice) while the Saks website has an identical looking pair to the Euro YSL website pair which they call 'nude' - between 'camel', 'nude', 'spice' and 'tan' it's certainly tricky! Bottom line is I do think that they are the same shoe but that the pair featured on the Nordstrom website have been shot in a particularly bright light (see the big shadow they cast?) and therefore seem lighter than the other pairs.
I hope this helps

Thanks so much! Its so hard when different sites use different names!! I think I'll try them and see if there not the color I'm looking for I can always send them back! Really want them to turn out more like the nordstrom color IRL! :p

For the experienced Tribute owners here I have a question about my one and only pair. I've noticed that when I walk the heel squeaks. Not in a way that its a problem with the shoe or my foot but it almost seems like the heel tap scrapes or slides across the floor and is like the sound of the rubber scraping against a hard surface.
I don't know if its just the way I walk in these bit I have no problems with any of my other shoes.
Has anyone had this problem? Is there either a fix or something else I can try? I'm hoping it's not because the shoes are too big since they did appear to be 1/2 size too big but they are still workable and I can't take them back now.
Thanks for any advice!

I noticed this too. Kinda embarrassing sometimes actually. I found myself tiptoeing one time coz I didn't wanna attract attention. LOL!

I also wear mine TTS so I don't know if it's size-related. Hopefully someone else will weigh in.

I've experienced it too. I feel like the heel sort of grabs the ground, and then makes the scraping sound as I lift off that foot.

I purchased a pair of nude color from Ebay and they arrived today. They are brand new but with some unexpected flaws (they were not mentioned on the listing. ) If you were me, what will u do? I have been hunting this color for a long time. :sad:
Do they look ugly to u ?

I noticed this too ,particularly when walking on marble floors. I wonder if there is some quick fix to this. It can be irritating especially because it draws people's attention to you.

Hi button
That's very disappointing :-( - I feel bad for you. I had a similar situation last month and I requested the seller give me a partial refund (which they agreed to). I guess what you need to work out is whether you are happy with the shoes and can live with the faults or whether theyre disappointing and you feel really let down. In the first case, a partial refund might sweeten things for you however in the second case you may need to push for a refund. You do have rights under ebay/Paypal to dispute a sale so I'd investigate your options there too.
Good luck.
