EN: I remember seeing these shoes at Zara a few years ago. They were so popular back then, almost everyone had a pair! And it’s easy to see why…
Anyway, I had the bug too so I went to my local Zara to try them on and eventually buy them. That obviously didn’t happen because my feet are in-between sizes and since the Romanian Zara doesn’t stock half sizes… it was a total disaster. I normally wear a size 8 US in shoes, sometimes a 9 but it depends on the shape of the shoe. However, I tried the 8, it was too small. I tried the 9, it was too big. I left the store empty handed and I still regret not buying them. [insert big sigh here]
RO: In 2010 sau 2011, aparusera la Zara pantofii astia. Model pe cat de simplu pe atat de popular, devenisera imposibil de gasit iar blogurile erau arhi-saturate de ei.
Mi-aduc aminte ca prinsesem si eu microbul, cu toate ca n-aveau nicio treaba cu stilul meu de atunci. Chiar ma dusesem in Zara de la Unirii si probasem cele doua marimi obligatorii pentru mine, 38 si 39. De regula la Zara 38 ma strange iar 39 imi e mare. Splendid.
(nota: in Romania, daca porti o marime cu jumatate de masura, esti fucked. Eu port. Iar daca la sandale, cizme sau pantofi cu bareta problema se rezolva simplu cumparand marimea mai mare, in ceea ce priveste escarpenii ai doua posibilitati: ori iei marimea mai mica si-ti blestemi zilele de durere ca te strange si iti e incomoda, ori o iei pe aia mai mare si te chinui sa mergi ca iti iese din picior. Cel putin in cazul meu).
Revenind. Deci am fost la Zara, am probat si-am patit fix ce ziceam mai sus : 38 nu puteam sa port ca muream de degete, 39 imi iesea din picior. Am plecat cu mana goala, nu mi-am luat nimic si am continuat sa ma consolez cu ideea ca “oricum nu port eu ceva asa de elegant!” Idee care s-a dovedit proasta pentru ca oftez la pozele lor ori de cate ori ii vad pe net sau in picioarele cuiva.
Anyway, a month or so ago, I saw these babies online at Zara.com and I’m obsessed! I haven’t seen them in stores yet but I can’t wait to try them on and hopefully they’ll fit this time!
Ba-ba-bi-baaaaaam! Dar au aparut astia! De vreo luna ii tot admir pe siteul Zara (nu i-am vazut inca in magazine…voi?) si astept sa dau de ei prin mall ca sa ii pot proba. Cu speranta ca nu mai patesc la fel ca acum doi ani si gasesc o marime care sa-mi vina fara probleme…
Not quite the same thing as the first pair but they look pretty similar to me…
Nu sunt ei identici alora dar seamana si-mi plac si presimt ca o sa regret iarasi crocodăliceşte daca-i ratez.
Not to mention that I saw them on Taylor’s Sterling instagram a few days ago! So yes, they do exist! Haha.
Verdict? I WANT THESE SHOES!
Please let me know if you (or anyone you know) have them!
Unde mai punem ca i-am vazut acum cateva zile pe instagramul tipei de la glitter guide!
Verdict? VREAU!
Ii aveti vreuna din voi cumva? Dati de stire, s’il vous plait!
