That, Not This

As much I adore Boogie Shoes, 
the truth is, most days you will find me
running around in flats!
  
Not wanting to sport a big designer emblem,
yet still looking to don stylish skips,
Lanvin has often caught my eye with THIS:


Lanvin metallic flats
$540.00 @ Barneys New York


The good news in shoes, is that for roughly $390.00 less,
Tory Burch has now come out with THAT instead!
Eddie Metallic Ballet Flat
$150.00 @ ToryBurch.com

{now THAT is something I can really boogie down with!}

They look so comfy! Plus, I love metallic leather shoes :) Such a pity I am on a shopping ban at the moment. Sigh...
ps thanks for visiting my blog!

I love flats, they are so cute & comfy. :)

I too, love ballerina flats. I'm surprised Tory Burch's don't have her signature emblem on them. I'm not one to wear designer emblems on any of my clothing/handbags/shoes, but her insignia I never really minded. Fun post, as I love shoes!

Oh yes, flats, flats, flats... can hardly wait to wearing them again. Love them in all colors! Have a fantastic sunny new week! xo

bluehydrangea said...

I'm with you, I am glad Tory didn't feel the need to slap her giant gold emblem on these shoes...maybe now I'll get a pair!

The Zhush said...

Sissy/Lisa: There is a small TB emblem on the back, its discreet and very cute!

Debra said...

Always ballet flats! I have a couple with this 'stretchy' siding-they are so comfortable.
I prefer the small emblem to the big brass one-for these more casual flats. Seriously-I would hurt myself in some of the heels that I love.

Southern Aspirations said...

ooh super cute! And comfy-looking!

A Perfect Gray said...

too cute! I gotta try flats!

Sarah Bartholomew said...

I live in flats! Thank goodness Tory didn't put her T medallion on these!!

Audrey Allure said...

Love flats, they're so comfortable to walk in :)

Sarah Esther said...

Good ole Tory :) She knows how to win us over!

Staley Mc said...

Those flats are so cute. I just love flats!

Marija said...

Now that I can get behind! I just could never do the big gold buckley-thing on front. Not that it's not attractive - just not me. Maybe if I had a tiny little foot I'd feel differently :) Marija

Thank god for Tory : ) Love these. I'm such a flats girl too, comfort always wins! xo katie

SogniSorrisi said...

I love ballet flats! Those Tory Burch ones are gorge--and her's are so comfy, too.

Stephanie said...

Love love love the ballet flats! They are definitely a wardrobe staple for me. Great finds - I think I need to go check out those TB flats!

Naomi said...

NICE! I am always on the look out for flats. I've been tinkering with the idea of giving in and getting Tori's most famous flats, but I too hate labels flashing around on my feet or purse. This is a nice option.
ps- just got Cole Haan's Air Bacara Ballet flat with Nike Air technology. they are so comfy!!

I j'adore ballet flats, but only for short trips and looking cute. My feet can't take much more, which is a shame, since I would wear them everywhere if I could!

Slumber Designs said...

Oh how I love flats like these! Being 5'9, I have way too many. But I often wonder if they're as comfortable as they look. Sometimes that elastic in the back is a killer! But girl, these shoes are gorgeous! I'd love to give them a try.

Verbena Cottage said...

they look so comfy! i would love to try both and see the difference(???) spring is always my favorite time in fashion and gardening...love your fashion ideas, need it! maryann

Cat said...

Love these shoes...they look so comfy! I would wear them every day with EVERYTHING! :)

shari @ little blue deer said...

Yup, gotta get. Those are amazing, and you could wear them all seasons, too!

Heavenly Housewife said...

Nice :D
I adore high heels, but i really find them so uncomfortable and hard to walk in. Its so not easy being a girl.
*kisses* HH

High-Heeled Foot in the door said...

Oh so pretty. I love in ballerina flats! I'm going to have check those out.

THE ALTERNATIVE WIFE said...

Great find! I'm a huge flat girl myself. I love me some heels but comfort usually wins especially trapesing around NYC during the day :)

The Red Umbrella said...

Flat out comfy! Yes!

nicole said...

I only wear flats during the day, but something about ballerina flats makes my back REALLY hurt! Even flip flops dont bother me as much as they do! I have been wearing Tod's driving shoes in tan leather. Love them.

Dayka (Life +Style) said...

love the flats. i've been looking for so comfy ones that won't drive me (and my feet!) crazy 2 hours after i leave the story, so i'll have to check these out.

and classes at FIT? sounds so much fun! we'll have to share what we're learning--i'd love to hear your thoughts about your experience. you know, my dirty little secret is that i used to want to be an atty so bad! it's actually still deep in my heart, but i know i'm on the right path. maybe i was just one in another life . . . :)

thanks for your kind comment.

Averill said...

Oooh...totally love that Tory is coming out with shoes that don't bear her ubiquitous label. The gray color is very chic, too.

liza said...

Remember when it was Saks and B. Altmans, then Nieman Marcus in the middle, and you had to walk outside or drive to go from one to the other. Is that where the Westchester is now? I have a sister still in Purchase, but I haven't been back in a while. I get to a mall about twice a year now! Thanks for visiting my little blog :) I will be back here!

Punctuation Mark said...

I can't wear ballerina shoes... my feet don't look good in them besides in Miami the mandatory shoe is the flip flop ;)

junghwa by amy stewart said...

The Lanvin flats look so comfy! Why do all the best shoes have to be so darn spendy?! Sad. :(

sara said...

Adorable, and what a great deal! I don't wear flats very often, but those are gorgeous. I keep telling myself that I am going to treat myself to a pair of TB flats!

Pinecone Camp said...

My ankles prefer flats ;) I'll take the Tory Burch flats, please!
I love your blog, so I've passed on the "Sunshine Award" to you! Check out my blog for details.
Have a sweet day!
