You Have To Get These: H by Halston - Sonia


Unfortunately, I don't have a full post! I ended up taking these pics and they came out really dark and blurry so I will have to give it another try soon.  I also didn't think that this was a very appropriate nail polish choice; the orange cone neon color screamed Halloween next to the black of the shoe.  The polish is Zoya's Paz for those of you who would like to know.

Anyway, these shoes are IT. I mean, seriously, I had seen them online before and even saw them in store and kept passing them by.  But I just thought, hmmm, why not try them on? And I'm so glad I did! They have such an elegant look to them and the heel/platform looks so striking, although it's pretty obvious that H by Halston is pretty much copying the designs of Cesare Paciotti seen below:

Beautiful, there's no denying it, but more than a bit expensive for the masses.  If you love the original style, then Cesare Paciotti is most definitely the way to go as there are much larger varieties of styles.  However, if your not willing to commit long-term, then the H by Halston is your best bet to get this look into your shoe collection without regretting it later (in case your taste changes).  Also, I believe that the Paciotti styles are a couple of years old so they will be harder to come by, so if you missed that boat, head to Bakers!

The H by Halston ones are also in what they are calling Ice, which looks like tan/blush/beige. A color which I am debating over getting, however, I am happily losing this debate so I might pick them up soon :)


And here a couple of the clearer pics:




You can find them below:


I could not find any of the Paciotti ones available.

So that's it for now, I will retry taking these pics once more to really show the detail.  Thanks for stopping by!
