Shoes with Pearls!

I am so thrilled you all liked the shoes I featured with yesterday's outfit. They are truly fabulous and I will admit that every single time I wear them I get loads of compliments. After all you kind messages and questions I felt it my duty to fill you all in so we can be a true prep and sport our pearls.

The shoes are made by Cochni. I bought mine on eBay last year after seeing them on another website. I just looked online for some information and it looks as if the company has two stores in CT (Greenwich and New Canaan) and one in NYC at 38th and Broadway (you guessed right when you thought I might be visiting in November- I need the pink!). The shoes come in a number of colors. I have the black and love them, but it was such a toss up between the pair I got, the pink patent and the leopard. I also found a photo of a lime green suede online.

For those of you interested in purchasing a pair of these fabulous shoes to add to your wardrobe here is the link to the eBay seller from whom I bought my pair. She has a limited stock so hurry over. Also, if you do not have any luck on eBay you might also try The Purple Poppy. They carried the shoes last year and if you poke around their website you can see the pink pair on some of the models. They no longer have the shoes listed on their site so who knows, maybe if you call they will be on sale! Finally, if you are set on something other than the black or leopard (all that is listed on eBay) I would suggest calling one of the stores to gather a bit more information. Good luck and let me know if you buy a pair!!

UPDATE: These shoes run pretty true to size. Mine are a 42 which I wear in all French Sole shoes. I typically wear a 9.5 in most shoes, but can wear a 9 when it comes to all my Revas. I could wear these shoes in a 41 as they are a medium width, but again for the most part they run true to size. If I had to say anything I guess I would say they run a tad big, but just a tad, so barely. I hope this helps! If you have more specific sizing questions please do email me! Also, I forgot to mention before that if you can get these on eBay you are getting a true steal. If I remember correctly they retail for around $100- $115. I bought mine on eBay for $60 plus shipping. Good luck!
