Month: April 2018

Designer shoes are something I just recently got into. I guess it is somewhat a natural progression from designer bags. But like designer bags not all designer shoes are created equal. I reviewed some spring shoes and found some sales for you all to partake in!

1- Gucci Loafers

$720

I love these Gucci Brixton Loafers. Gucci has always sold variations of these loafers. Loafers are always in style, whether you wear them in an office setting or with jeans. While these are pricey the leather is amazing. So amazing I just ordered myself a black pair because yes I needed two pairs. There are some dupes which I will link below but honestly if you plan on wearing these for more than one season I say invest. Plus the Brixton is convertible so if you have been eyeing the slides these loafers can serve as both. I find that they run big and I went down to a 9.5/39.5.

I couldn’t find any Brixton Loafers on sale but I did find some Jordaans on sale. They are very similar just not convertible.

Gucci Jordaan Loafers– Size 37- $545

Gucci Jordaan Loafers-Size 38.5- $625

Gucci Jordaan Velvet Loafers– Size 40-$545 (plus 20% off with code “real”)

Gucci Brixton Loafers– Size 40- $490

2- Chloe Lauren Flats

$495- leather version

$515- suede version

This flats have been in style for years and I don’t think are going anywhere. I own three pairs of leather ones and one pair of suede ones and love them. I find that they run small and need a 40.5 or 41. These are definitely worth the investment but the best part is you can often find them for way under retail. I have not pair retail for any of them and got my burgundy ones for $35.

Chloe Lauren Black Sparkle Flats– $368

Chloe Lauren Studded Suede Flats– $387

Chloe Lauren Navy Suede Flats– $359

*Keep your eyes on Saks off Fifth- they often get in Chloe Lauren Flats but they sell out quickly!

3- Chloe Lauren Espadrilles 

$495

Overall I love these shoes and would buy them again in a heartbeat- but only if I found them again for $110. They are super comfortable and like with the Lauren flats I sized up to a 41.  But the bottom of them is a leather (not rubber sole) and they do not wear very well. Plus the whole bottom of the shoe does not have a leather sole so the arc area is just the espadrille like material.

Chloe Red Suede Flat Espadrille– size 40 only- $209.99

4- Gianvito Rossi Plexi Flats

$695

These flats are beautiful but so uncomfortable I ended up returning them. Unlike the plexi heels, the plexi material of the flats does not mold to your foot and just makes them overheat. They also rub very badly on the back of your heel so why they are stunning to look at they are the one shoe I would not recommend.
