I love the Altis! I was looking at the grey version myself; such a gorgeous shoe!

And the red patent is so pretty!

Here are my Blue Patent Leopard Pigalle 120s
This is a pair that I wear all the time with dresses, jeans and skirts.
They've stretched a bit over the years from frequent wearings but I still love them.

I absolutely love all of your outfits!! Amazing style and so pretty!

Would you be able to post some side-by-side comparison pics (side/front/back) of the Altis and Biancas? I'm so tempted to order the Altis but would be curious to see how they compare to the Biancas

jenm2009 - Here are some quick side by side shots of my Altis and Biancas (The Biancas are the slingbacks). You can see the Bianca is a bit wider and has a higher platform which makes them a bit easier to wear. The Bianca has the 150mm heel while the Alti is a 160mm heel. The Altis show lots of toe cleavage while the Biancas only show moderate toe cleavage. In my opinion, the Bianca is more of an everyday shoe while the Alti is more of a dainty, special occasion, out-at-night shoe. The Biancas are certainly easier to walk in than the Altis but I find the Altis to be a bit sexier.

Both are great shoes but different...Hope this helps!!!

Thanks hazeltt, ipudgybear, drizall & Peep!!!



drizall - It just takes a bit of practice to master the pigalles. If you wear them enough, they become second nature.

 

[drizall]

but do you gradually build up to the higher ones or did you start off with the >100?

 

[BattyBugs]

Blue leopard...yummy. Don't you have another pair to add now, Stilly?

 

[stilly]

but do you gradually build up to the higher ones or did you start off with the >100?

Some people start with the lower heels but I actually started with the Pigalle 120s. They were my first pair of CLs.

I always wore 4-5" heels however so it wasn't a big transition for me.

You might want to start with the Pigalle 100s and see how it goes before getting the 120s. Piggy's 120 Tips thread has more tips.

Good Luck!!!

I finally picked up a pair of Pigalle 120 Bronze Karungs off eBay.
I always loved these and was happy to finally find them in my size.

It was warm last Saturday so I wore them to lunch with a Forever 21 miniskirt that my friend brought over for me to wear.
