But, patience has paid off as other designers have come out with similar styles for a fraction of the cost.
Here's the Chloe 'Lauren' Scalloped Ballet Flat:
Retails for $475. A cute flat, made of italian calf skin. Looks super soft and comfy. I love the taupe color (comes in a variety of colors).
If you're on a tight budget or cost conscious, here are some others that are just as nice!
Exclusive to Garnet Hill, Born Twyla Scalloped Ballet flats are a runner up from Chloe's design. Retailing for $118, these are a favorite of mine, with a slightly wider scallop design. I recently learned of the brand Born, from my brother, who owns a cool looking pair of shoe boots. Their shoes are said to be very comfortable. I love the brown and natural color. Too bad they don't carry black.
J. Crew's version, Harper scalloped suede flats. An alternative to leather, this suede flat has a pointy toe. Retailing for $128 (and better when on sale).
If you're not a big fan of suede, here's a leather version by Loeffler Randall - Milla Scallop Flat. This version is also a pointy toe and retails for $250. Comes in buff, cheetah and snake skin print.
Another favorite of mine, from French Sole, is their version, Jigsaw. Retails for $150.00. I own several pairs of flats from French Sole and love their shoes.
I'm loving the Coffee Patent and the Cobalt Blue.
They also have a wide selection of colors and finishes:
Do you know of any other designers who carry the scallop ballet flat? I would love to hear from you!
I'm still debating which color I'll go with but have narrowed it down to Born and French Sole.
Happy Shopping!
