Finally, the shoe of my dreams
I was on the look out for a pointed toe pump that was just right. It had to be wearable, the toe shouldn't be too pointy and most important of all, they needed to be sexy without being inappropriate for the office. Bingo, the Manolo BB is it. I am a Choo and Louboutin lover but I wasn't buying the Louboutin Pigalle for anything...I want to be able to walk in my shoes. I ordered the Manolo BB and the Jimmy Choo Abel. They looked identical online but what I difference when I received them. The Choos looked cheap....like they easily could have been a $100 pair of shoes and the cut was just....blah. Not bad by any means...but nothing special. The BBs on the other hand had an amazing cut although low on the sides, and the stick straight heel left me convinced....this was my shoe. I listed them as slightly narrow b/c I have narrow feet and the low cut sides are just right....maybe a hair towards too low/too narrow. If I had feet any wider, my foot would be popping out the sides. If you have narrow feet and are looking for a great pump, this is it. If your feet are wide, I would recommend the Choo Abel for a practical and comfortable shoe.....but be warned, they cannot compare to the appeal of Manolo. This is my first pair of Manolos and it won't be my last. Bye Bye Louboutin, I have a new man in my life!
