Which Do You Prefer?

alb · Marc Jacobs

they're both cute but i think i prefer the BR ones. have you tried the BR ones on??

rlutz · Chanel

I really like the BR pair....i think they are on sale now

TheLovelyLady71 · Hermes

Love the BR ones as well!

XtinaStyles · Marc Jacobs

rar210,
By huge how to you mean? Like in length or in width? I was in love with them but am worried that my feet will be too wide to fit.

I think the Nine West pair would work better as a casual, more versatile shoe. I could see them working with jeans, shorts, dresses. I see the BR ones working with dresses but for a more refined, dressier overall look IMO

Ditto - so you'll have to get both.

Collette · Chanel

Oh I really like the BR pair!

kmd · Kate Spade

I like both a lot, and I'd probably get both. So, basically, I'm not help at all! Sorry!

I'm a true size 6. I wear a 6 in about every shoe I own. I ordered these in a 6 and they were so big (length) wise. I'd put my heel where it was supposed to be and then couldn't see any toes. It was odd. I haven't gotten my size 5 1/2 yet, but I'll be happy to review when they get here. I was very worried my foot would be too wide, that was my main concern. A lot of strappy sandals don't work for me because my foot is a little wider then normal. But these actually had a light "hidden elastic" on the side of the strappy part, so that wasn't an issue here.

I agree- they would both be great for different outfits

I also agree. Both are absolutely necessary.

OOh thanks alot, I might have to try these out!

What did you decide to do?

rar210 · Marc Jacobs

I really don't know what to do. I like the BR ones, but haven't seen them in person. And probably wouldn't pay $160 for them. I'm hoping for a sale! I still haven't gotten my Nine West order in, hoping to see it today. I really just couldn't tell if I loved them or not because the last pair fit so weird. I'll be sure to give a better review when I get them!!
