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?

June 7, 2011 at 4:21 pmDefinitely the Elena. I am not a fan of the casing on teh Elaina.

June 7, 2011 at 4:22 pmelaina… i’m such a sucker for bows!

June 7, 2011 at 5:11 pmdefinitely elena (love straps, don’t love bows)

June 7, 2011 at 5:15 pmI think Elena has a more foot-flattering shape.
Ariel
June 7, 2011 at 5:15 pmElaina* not Elena. Whew! That’s confusing.

June 7, 2011 at 7:09 pmCute but since I have short legs, I’d go for Elaina. According to What Not To Wear, ankle straps shorten the leg line.

June 7, 2011 at 7:53 pmHeyyyyy, I’m Elena! But I actually prefer the Elaina :)
Kristina
June 7, 2011 at 9:11 pmYup, 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!

June 7, 2011 at 9:31 pmoh 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.

June 7, 2011 at 9:33 pmThat’s really tough because I like the profile of Elena more, but I really like looking down on Elaina more. Tough call.

June 8, 2011 at 1:42 amoh I just love kate spade. Elaina would have to be my choice but I do have a soft spot for bows.
Nina
June 8, 2011 at 3:44 amBoth?
I think Elana would get some more use though, I have enough shoes with straps!

June 8, 2011 at 4:02 amElaina 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.

Laine
June 8, 2011 at 8:43 amElena! Shoes without straps fall off my feet. :/
Heidi/The Closet Coach
June 8, 2011 at 9:48 amI 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.
Giulia
June 8, 2011 at 12:12 pmElaina 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.

June 8, 2011 at 1:44 pmi’m a sucker for bows so i’d have to go with elaina.
Rebecca
June 8, 2011 at 2:22 pmLike them both! But if I really had to choose I think I’d pick the Elaina
Desiree
June 9, 2011 at 5:02 amI think I like the Elaina better because they’re super fast to slip on. I also can’t resist the little bow.

June 10, 2011 at 7:25 amKate 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.
Elena
June 10, 2011 at 2:10 pmWhy Elena of course!
Amanda
June 15, 2011 at 10:40 amI love the Elaina. I’m not a big “strapy” fan.

June 16, 2011 at 2:59 pmElaina all the way!
