You know you want them…Yves St. Laurent “Tribute” Slingbacks

4 03 2008

After having foot surgery I’ve been doing all this talking about how I’m in no rush to get back into a heel…..but then I go and get an obsession with last springs must have shoes, Yves St. Laurent’s 5 1/2 inch “Tribute Slingbacks”.

Yeah…I never learn my lesson and lied(kinda like how Whitney Houston lied during the whole “Crack is Wack” interview about not being on drugs then walked around in a backwards wig and did a reality show she probably has no recollection of due to being high on something) but it would be so worth the pain lol.

I would seriously tap dance naked on Michigan Ave in the middle of rush hour if someone would buy me this exact pair. Seriously. Email me with donations and I’ll post it on youtube. One of my readers noted these are Giambattista Valli’s, which I found are the “Victoria Shoe” and will run you $900……so it looks like I will be doing more than tap dancing naked for a pair of these…be on the look out for a post on knock-offs soon.

They have been on everyone from Victoria Beckham to Jennifer Lopez to Beyonce….

and will set you back at least $650 a pair, so for those that need a more reasonable priced pair…here are a few shoes with a similar look that I found.

Giuseppe Zanotti $553

Giuseppe Zanotti $539

Report $224

Miss Sixty $189

Nine West $99

Instead of slingbacks, try these pumps from Costume National for $503

I dream of one day being a grown-up and sexxy bitch that can wear high heels.. 32 years and counting and I still can’t do it.

Sighs… i’m doomed to a life of flats, kitten heels, and little wedges.

I love the shape of the platform on all of the YSL heels. Each year they change the style a bit but the general shape remains the same and it’s totally swoon-worthy. One day, I will have a pair, even if it means I have to become a hardcore gold-digger…haha!

The pic of Rihanna in the green and black shoes, they aren’t YSL. They are Giambasta Valli. And they are the NEW must have shoe.
