Looks like they were originally being sold for $1600.00 but the only place that has them left (not to mention only size 38) is Net-a-Porter and they’ve jacked them up to $2300!!

The Fashionable Housewife found some great luxe-for-less options for these Balmains… must see.

Finding the perfect gift for a girls is tough for several reasons. First off we already have everything we could possibly need. If there’s anything we don’t already have it’s most likely because we are already on the hunt for it so it’s pointless to even attempt to go there. Secondly, being that we are girls we were created to be selective and picky so it’s unnatural to have things picked out for us. So when it comes to gifts I have found the most successful gifts are those that even the recipient herself never knew existed or those items that are rare to be found along the normal shopping haunts.

Here’s a perfect example.

Beach Survival Guide from Juicy Couture – $75 at Nordstrom.com.

This kit includes an inflatable pillow, a mirrow, and seperate bags for your wet bikini, suntan lotion and water bottle.  All designed in a cute pink and green Juicy theme.

Why do I like this gift? First off, it’s such a unique and original package  you don’t have to worry about your recipient already having one. Beyond that I think this is a great gift is because it’s a luxury item that most girl’s would not spend money on themselves. That’s another thing that makes a perfect gift — something that a girl would like but wouldn’t buy for herself.
