S.O.S.

I want these shoes. No, I need these shoes. They fit all my requirements. Kitten heel, bow and just plain kick-ass. But I can’t find them anywhere. They are Vera Wang from Spring 2005. Anyone know where I can find them?

try this company in new york, http://www.myglassslipper.com/
call them, they may have back stock.
i hope this helps!
Unfortunately, I believe they’re it’s the “Riky” which has a 3″ heel!
Do you know the style number/name?
I just found them there as well!
Strawberry, search “Vera Wang Riky” - there are quite a few sites that carry them though it looks like they are all about the same price.
Thanks girls–but those sites say they are 3 inches and instyle calls them kitten heels. Either those aren’t the shoes..or instyle is a big fat liar!

I hope you know they have a 3″ heel.
Make sure you are comfy in them and break them in well. I didn’t wear this particular style, but my Vera Wangs were Satan. They hurt so much that I didn’t even make it down the aisle in them. I switched to my back-ups after getting ready and pre-ceremony photos.
Those aren’t kitten heel–Vera Wang did have another pair with a kitten heel from an older season, but those aren’t them. Did you check out Shelley George? She has several shoes with low heels (maybe not kitten) and bows:

I feel your pain–I had very similar shoe requirements: very low heel, and a real heel, not a ballet flat, closed toe, some ornamentation, although not necessarily a bow, $200 or less, and had to come in a size 11. I ended up with the Powell:

The Milan shoe there is damn cute too, although not exactly a bow.
This is the Vera Wang I meant:
And this is cute, low, and has a bow. It’s a little different, though:
Oh, and there’s this one, too. I think this is the one I had seen, but it’s sold out in my size, and too much money, anyway!

Not much of a kitten heel, more like a mountain lion.
OMG - I just was at Secondi (a high-end consignment store in DC) this weekend and I tried on those (or they were at least very similar Vera Wang) shoes… They had them in a size 9 and were selling them for $121. I was in love with them, unfortunately, I was looking for a slightly higher heel (they were like 2 inches)… If you google the store, you will find their website and contact info.
I love those shoes too!!!
I am in hot pursuit of Delman “June”–also from 2005. 
Darn us and our discontinued shoes! Good luck!
Instyle is totally lying–you can see that those are high heels in the picture. They shouldn’t have led you on like that, Miss Strawberry. Doesn’t it suck when you have the exact idea of what you want in your mind, and you can’t find it?
Do posts with URLs in them take longer to publish?
If so, I just duplicated posted - he he he.
since you’re looking for a low heel shoe with a bow….i figured i’d post my wedding shoes for you.

in case the link doesnt work, they are the Grazia Sabrina shoes…and they’re super comfy! good luck!
Limor–I adore those! I think those might be the ones!!! 
Thanks!!!!!
Darn it - my links from yesterday still didn’t post. Anyone know why?
Strawberry, I’m going to e-mail you a bunch. Sorry about that.
