Balmain, my love!





Test driving my new suede booties. I have a feeling these babies are going to come in handy, come the cooler weather. I slip in and out of them like butter. They could not have been designed any better. I love their fit, look and comfort. Almost cuter than the real ones (I like the heel on these much more, than on the originals.) Thank you, Bakers, for replicating the Balmain delight and satisfying our palate!

Your boots are fantastic!!! ;o) Kisses!

Ahh! you have the Baker's Balmains- they look great. Really good replica- I wanted to get them but there were two hurtles: 1. Don't think bakers.com ships to Canada. 2. Although they are the closest boots to the Balmains we've all seen, it still bothers me that the heel is wood and not suede.

Love the boots!! I have them too - they're wonderful :) I like your dress too.

Laurel said...

Yay the Bakers wonders have finally arrived! They look amazing sweetie, and coupled with your little black number, it couldn't have been a better choice!!
I think I really do get shoe drunk just wearing them! lol

And I wanted to say thank you for your divine comments, which just melted me. Plus, while trying to put aside the fact that I'm starting to get those ubiquitous 'hater-comments'... yours made me feel that much better!

danielle They are so comfortable. Definitely get 'em. :) Love that we have the same taste in photos. I saw your blog. I love your profile pic and header pic.

i.d. said...

I love the look of these boots - and I'm even more stoked to hear that they're actually comfortable! :)

PorcelainBlonde said...

Those booties are divine and they really suit you...love how you've styled them, it's all so clean and chic and draws the eye to your gorgeous legs :)

Stephanie said...

You're so sweet for offering to help me out with the potential shipping dilemma. Thank you :-) I'll let you know if I decide to order a pair. For the moment I ended up finding a pretty perfect pair at Zara. I'm really happy to hear the Bakers are comfortable!

I'm glad you liked the muse sidebar. There were all these html glitches and finally I had enough and decided to fix the whole problem.

I haven't been reading the Influence interviews in order. Rather in order of interest/curiosity. I just posted about my favourite interview so far. Which Kate Moss style book? I haven't heard of it but I'm for sure going to want to pick up a copy. Do you know when the planned release is?

Lisa said...

yup, confirmed.

you are radiating.

the boots look fabulous girl.

they are super chic, yet still have a little boho flair with the fringe = the perfect boot for you.

ooo can't wait ;)
and if you say hana one more time....

(!!!)

loves.

Karafina said...

Sharon Rose said...

Mode Junkie said...

i think these bakers beauties are the next nine west heech on bloggers. :) love it on you. you are queen of fringes.hands down. if only they ship here to germany, i'd totally buy it!

Cate said...

When I first read the heading, I thought you had somehow got hold of the original Balmain ones. But these are just as good. I adore Balmain too, but obviously it's way too expensive so I try to look for "replicas" of Balmain things too.
You bet those boots will come in handy when it will get colder! They'll sure look great with skinny jeans too! By the way... I almost never see you in trousers!
xoxo Cate

christina said...

styleexpress said...

Ooh sure sure!! i ordered it from amazon and at the end of the payment section they list the item names + authors of the things u bought so next to influence was mary-kate, thats why i assumed that im getting the mk one! As soon as i receive it ill scan it and send it for u, that is if i get the mk one hehehe :p..

Seraphine said...

i wish all shoes fit like butter. maybe in the long run, wearing butter is healthier anyway. it has to be good for your skin.
just kidding!
cute boots.

sophie said...

they look just like the real thing - gorgeous. I have some, but without the heel and yours are amazing!

Myriam said...

Luuvliii boots!

Nancy said...

Yes, Bakers, Nine West, Steve Madden, etc. are so good because they always good designer replicas! I feel a little guilty in purchasing them, but there's no way that I can even dream about purchasing the originals! I like that you paired the shoes with a simple dress, the shoes need all the attention they deserve :)

May Kasahara said...
