how do you guys do the straps? i can't do them up my calf...no need to accentuate that and i'm not sure it's worth getting them to onyl tie the straps around my ankle.


 


thoughts? what do you guys do. i've seen some gorgeous shoes posted but I dno't get them because i'm not sure about the straps...like the cole haan espadrilles (drool!)


thanks rosey!

I always wrap them around my ankle a few times just because its a pain in the butt to keep pulling them up if you wrap around your leg.

I just wrapped the strap around my ankle twice and I think they look really cute like that- it creates a nice, girly bow in front (a look of which I am a big fan!).  The tie up my calf thing is so not right for me because (1) I am not Kate Moss and (2) Like theotherjess pointed out, it's a pain to be fiddling with the straps when they keep falling down your calves.


If you do decide to get them, I think they're sold out of the black online (they were in my size at least), but they might still have the green ones (really beautiful too!).  What I did was call a Cole Haan store.  When they didn't have them in stock, they checked the system to see what stores had them in my size and called the store for me and had them ship to me- free of charge!  They were super nice about it!

I own these C-Label espadrilles and I can't wear the ties around my legs (muscular calves), so I wrap them around the ankle a few times. I think it would work with the Cole Haan espadrilles too...I tried on the Louboutin espadrilles and it worked awesomely well that way.
