fantasy friday: YSL tribute sandal.

June 11, 2010 — 13 Comments

Go high, or go home.

When it comes to my shoes, I’m something of a woman of extremes. It’s either flats, or heels of at least 4 inches – preferably 5. And extra points for a serious platform. What I’m not a fan of is anything in between. That’s right, ladies – you won’t be seeing any kitten heels in these parts.

The Tribute Sandal by Yves Saint Laurent is by far my favorite platform ever. The T-strap adds something different, and trust me – your legs will go on for miles. They’re surprisingly comfortable, and they come in lots of different neutrals. I think this nude color may just be the perfect shade to go with everything.

I should probably mention that I don’t yet own these babies officially – but I do have 2 pair from Bakers that look absolutely identical. Hands down – the best purchases I’ve ever made. One in black, and one in cognac – I always get so many compliments on them, and I’m proud of the fact that I paid only $90 a pop as opposed to the $750 price tag.

Still, I’m not going to lie – I would like to have the real deal one day. In every color. With matching YSL Platform Pumps, Downtown Totes, and Muse Handbags, please.

And that’s why {for now} it’s called a Fantasy…

Happy Friday, lovelies!

    I just spent my lunch hour searching for a brown platoform sandal over 4 inches and less than $150 to no avail…I wish I could afford the $750 YSL…

    Very hot shoes- I have my eye on a similar pair at Macy’s. I just can’t bring myself to drop the cash because they are expensive and I’ll never wear them.

    These are gorgeous! I love Bakers too. I get most of my sandals and pumps there and get compliments every time I wear a pair!

    Hmmm yeah a $750 price tag is kind of a buzzkill.

    I love really high heels also. Especially because my legs are short for my height. I find bigger heels to make me look more proportional :P

    These are some gorgeous shoes.

    I have lusted after a pair of these for about a year now and I don’t even wear really high heels (I’ll have to make an exception for these!) … hopefully one day (soon)!
