Save vs. Spend: Charlotte Olympia Kitty Flats

I've recently come across a gorgeous pair of flats. Even Taylor Swift has one! :3


It's the Charlotte Olympia Kitty Flats in Black. It's one of my fashion lusts, but it would cost me an arm and leg to purchase it.

Parisian Fantasia (P499.75)

And then, I came across a dupe from Parisian. It was like an OMG moment, until I tried it on. I'm usually a size 6 or 7, but neither sizes (for this style) would fit me. Sad.

If you want one, I'm pretty sure SM Department Store still has these in stock. Run now, and make me jealous! Haha :)

Love,
Helen

      It is nice! :D I was so ready to buy it, but then both sizes I tried weren't the perfect fit. Sayang!

    i have one too! their size 5 wouldn't fit me (just a bit) but I still bought it just because it's difficult to find one like this locally. My sister wants to buy one too but sadly she can't find one anymore. :(

      Yes, I saw it too on your blog! It's so cute right! :D So they do have a problem with regards to the fit. Sayang, they could have perfected it! Anyway, swerte yung mga paa na sasakto sa shoes na to. Heehee!

      Maybe your sister could visit SM dept. stores (with less foot traffic), baka may stocks pa. Sa SM North kasi I doubt there will still be stocks, too many people there!

      I'm guessing Angel spotted the red one in SM Iloilo. :)

      Thank you also for reading, Grace!

    These are so cute! My sister freaked out when she saw this pair at SM North and immediately grabbed one. ^^ I hope SM would come up with Marc Jacobs Mouse flats inspired ones, too. ^^

      Mejo alanganin yung sizes sa Parisian eh for this design, but if it's a perfect fit then why not. I'm sure your Primadonna pair is nice too! :)
