So my bestie Cindy and I were having a girls day in Boston a few weeks ago. We grabbed brunch and browsed around the stores. We hit up Neiman Marcus and we were just strolling thru and OMG we literally almost died when we saw the sale racks. I'm telling you we saw Jimmy Choo, Christian Loubinton, Manolo Blahniks and a bunch of other designer shoes at such a discounted price. We looked at each other and grabbed all the cute shoes in our size and asked the sale associate to grab the shoes for us. We both are the same shoe size and we have the same taste in shoes too but thankfully we didn't end up fighting over any shoes lol We would never anyways. The sales associate was so nice and even said that she couldn't believe how low the prices were.
Cindy ended up getting a pair of Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik heels. I ended up with these gorgeous black Manolo Blahnik heels. We both decided to treat ourselves and were very happy with our purchases. The next day I got curious and went on the Nieman Marcus website and realized I could get the black Manolo Blahniks for even cheaper. Everyone who knows me personally knows I LOVE a good bargain so I signed up to receive their email and received a 15% off coupon. Rakuten was also offering 10% cash back with a Neiman Marcus purchase. So I ordered it online and returned the pair that I got in store.
Here's the breakdown of what I ended up paying for them:
Original price: $725.00
Sale price: $242.00 after taxes $246.19
Neiman Marcus email sign up: 15% coupon- $205.70
Rakuten 10% cash back: $20.57
Total price: $185.13
I'm a HUGE Sex & The City fan so getting a pair of iconic Manolo Blahnik heels is a dream! I am absolutely in love with them. They are such a chic classic pair of slingback heels. The color of the shoe and heel height is perfect. I will definitely get the cost per wear out of them for sure. So happy to have found these at such an unbelievable price and it will be in my wardrobe forever!
Here are my tips for getting designer shoes for less:
- Sign up for store emails- get 10-15% off (depending on the store). Create a new email if you have to, to get the coupon.
- Sign up for Rakuten. If you're a huge online shopper you must use this. You literally get money back for shopping! Now that's my type of shopping :)
- Always check the websites for their sales. They usually always have designer shoes on sale. You just have to hawk the websites.
Omg they are lovely! <3

DeleteI can't believe you managed to get them for so little! That's amazing. I'm the same with shoes, always end up scuffing them so typically don't invest and stick with bags. Definitely worth it at those prices though! x
