Kate Spade has two hot pink patent leather flats that are subtly different but equally desirable. There’s Elena (with an ankle strap), and Elaina (with a little bow). I do love a good, lipstick-hued shoe; don’t you? Which one do you like better?

Elena!

Elaina all the way!
Amanda
I love the Elaina. I’m not a big “strapy” fan.
Elena
Why Elena of course!

Kate Spade can do no wrong in my eyes! Both are so cute. I love the bow on the one and the darling strap on the other. I see jeans with the bow and a skirt with the straps. Therefore, I would have to have both :-P.

I think I like the Elaina better because they’re super fast to slip on. I also can’t resist the little bow.
Rebecca
Like them both! But if I really had to choose I think I’d pick the Elaina

i’m a sucker for bows so i’d have to go with elaina.

Elaina because I love bows and my legs are short and the strap is usually not that flattering on me, especially on flats. Love the summer fresh pink colour.

I am totally lusting after the Elena, although black is more practical for me than pink. I’d love confirmation first that the leather really is soft, though. I can’t justify dropping $198 unless I can wear them both with and without stockings.

Elena! Shoes without straps fall off my feet. :/
Nat@ dear little house
Elena, hands down!

Elaina does it for me. I think you need to be 7 feet tall and weigh nothing to get away with an ankle strap. Which is definitely not a description of me.

Both?
I think Elana would get some more use though, I have enough shoes with straps!
amie
oh I just love kate spade. Elaina would have to be my choice but I do have a soft spot for bows.

That’s really tough because I like the profile of Elena more, but I really like looking down on Elaina more. Tough call.

oh my goodness, there is no way i can just pick one. i mean, they are both so amazing. straps rock, always… but bows are so so so pretty.
dang.

Yup, as soon as I saw the Elena in my inbox, I knew they had to be mine. But let’s keep it real … ankle straps are the pits!
Elena @ Breakfast for Dinner
Heyyyyy, I’m Elena! But I actually prefer the Elaina :)
Jaimie
Cute but since I have short legs, I’d go for Elaina. According to What Not To Wear, ankle straps shorten the leg line.

I love the one with the strap, very cute :)

Elaina* not Elena. Whew! That’s confusing.
Ariel
I think Elena has a more foot-flattering shape.
haya
definitely elena (love straps, don’t love bows)
how adorable!
Simone

lisa

Definitely the Elena. I am not a fan of the casing on teh Elaina.
lena (Elena)

Which one? It’s like my very own Sophie’s choice… Ok, ok — Elaina!
Melissa
Ooo! I like the Elena the best. They’re both so adorable!
