Isabel Marant Sneakers for the upscale sneaker lover

I know I usually post casual shoe releases from Nike, Adidas etc but these particular sneakers are for the fashion forward sneaker lover. I first got wind of these Isabel Marant sneakers from jewelry designer Melody Ehsani's blog. When I first saw these, I wasn't feeling these too tough but then the gum sole on them is what kept me mesmerized. The silhouette does give essence of a high heel, so this sneaker would be ideal for the high heel wearer who wants a simple yet fashionable sneaker.

These sneakers are available at Barneys, Net-a-Porter and Lgarconne for $680 a pop. Since they come with a hefty price tag, Ash Shoes has a similar version called the Bowie which are sold on Karmaloop for $225.00. Check it....









I'm feeling them both. What about you guys?

me encantan los dos colores..quizas la rosa es mas dificil de combinar pero me parecen colores acertados...es lo mas parecido a llevar un zapato de tacon,juveniles pero a la vez elegantes...enhorabuena por vuestro blog chicas!!

May I correct you: it's Isabel Marant, not Murant ;)
And the ones worn by Joan Smalls are the Bekket ;)
Yes, it's pricey, but the cheaper ones really have nothing to do with them!
