Bebe Naina in White/Cork


So here is the Naina in the white and cork combo.  My in-depth review on the Naina can be found HERE

This version is only the pictures, but I will say that these fit me more comfortably than the other colors I own!

Heel Height: 5.5 Inch heel w/ 1.5 Inch Platform


This was probably my favorite color combination that the Naina's came in.  They are so perfect for Spring/Summer.

The white/cork bebe Naina's are starting to sell out on a lot of websites. But like I said in my other Naina post, endless is probably you best way to go if you are between sizes since you can order them, get them overnight, and they have free return shipping for whichever pair doesn't work out.  As of right now, they are fully stocked from 5.5 to 10 in the white and every single color!


Have fun!

Hi, I'm new to this blog and I have to say that I love it.
I would like to ask for your help. I've never bought any shoes online, and after checking your blog I fell in love with some BEBE shoes. I found out bebe only has whole sizes. If I'm a 6.5 in Steve Madden shoes for example... what would you advice for me to get on the bebe shoes. I don't want any toes hanging out the sandal!
Thanks!!!!

Hi Paola, I'm really glad to hear that you love what you're seeing :) As for sizing, I find that Bebe typically carries very true to size shoes, EXCEPT for the Naina. I can probably give you a more specific answer depending on which shoes you like from them but I will give you an answer for the Naina specifically, especially since your a half-size.

I am mostly a size 6, however, I have long 2nd and 3rd toes! Look at the way my toes nearly come to the edge, and look at the video of the model. She has average length toes (hence, they are shorter than her big toe)so they fall within the toe bed. My 2nd and 3rd toes can make my size fluctuate between 6 and 6.5. As you can see from the pic from straight ahead, my big toe fits very well, but my third toe is EXACT!

6.5 is tricky at bebe, the style of the shoe definitely affects whether a 6 or 7 is better for you. If you like the Naina, it is sold at Endless.com in half sizes.

(BTW, I'm not sure if you saw my post on the black Naina, I give a more thorough breakdown of the sizing there than on this post.)

Does the bebe shoe you like not come in half sizes? Let me know if your toes are "average" length or a little longer like mine, feel free to give me some specific shoe names so I can give you a more accurate answer. Hope that wasn't too confusing. Thanks for visiting!

Thank you so much for your reply. I want to get the Natasha Bebe at endless.com: http://www.endless.com/bebe-Womens-Natasha-Platform-Black/dp/B0049M6GJE/ref=ord_crt_shr?ie=UTF8&fromPage=cart&refURL=%2FshoppingCart&asins=B0049M6GJE

The thing is I'm from Costa Rica and I'm having them shipped to a friend in Miami. So I definitely have to do it right. My toes are average length, so funny until you pointed that out I've never really checked them.
I think that as for measurement, since I'm 23 cm long, Im getting #7 that is 23.5cm. I would definitely hate my toes coming out.
I feel that if I get the 6.5 it would be just too exact.
I don't know it's my first time ordering and I'm so scared they won't fit right. Please give me your advice.
THANKSSSSSS

Ok Paola, this is definitely a tricky situation! LOL

I want the Natasha soooooo bad and I haven't had a chance to buy it, although I wish I had so I could give you a better answer. I've never even tried it on! So with that in mind:

For most shoes, when they are, for example, 23.2 in length for a 6.5 (according to Endless) they are usually ALREADY taking into account space for your toes so that they won't hang out. I'm afraid if you go too big, the area around your ankle will be popping off your foot. But then again, the Natasha has elastic straps which will hold your foot in place even if it's a little big.

I'm so sorry that I can't give you a more specific answer and I'm really torn on what size you should get! I would suggest typing bebe natasha into a google search and reading as many reviews as you can to see what other girls are saying about sizing.

Also, I will give you a link to a blogger that bought these shoes so she will probably give a better answer on sizing since she has tried them on.

Best of luck on your shoe pursuit! :)

I've went with my gut and bought a size 7 which is 23.5, hoping they will fit just right!
I just hope I didn't make a mistake. i absolutely loved this shoes, from the moment I checked your website and gave me the link to endless.
Thanks for all your help, I'll be letting you know how they fit once I get them!
Thankssss a lot!!!

Helloooo, I finally got my Natasha Bebe Shoes!!!
They are absolutely gorgeous!!
Thank God I got half size more, because they aren't really true to size.
If you should get them acknowledge this.
Thanks for all your help and feedback!!!

WOW, I'm so glad that they fit you, that would have been such a pain to return them! I will definitely keep the 1/2 size in mind if I get them, thanks for letting me know :)
