Delman "Sahara" platform

[shoesense]

I know theyre technically last season, but I had to take a moment and pay homage to this beautiful shoe, the Sahara from Delman, one of their most successful creations last year, imho (they also had a blue version which was quite nice). I love the retro platform (too high for me, but still with pretty, classic curvature), the ornate and unusual cutout vamp, the slingback style, the Mary Jane strap, the peep-toe (sheesh, so many styles into one!). At any rate, you can find this beautiful platform half off at Shoes.com, currently going for $167.

Addendum: If youre not a fan of the cutout styling, Delman also produced this shoe in regular nubuck, keeping all the other details (including the heart-shape peep-toe). Theyre called "Sultana" and theyre available for $245 at Zappos (thats 32% off).
