YOSI SAMRA
{please visit yosi samra here}
Designer Yosi Samra knows a thing or two about shoes, after all his family has been in the business for over 30 years and he himself joined the business at the tender age of 20. While most of us at that age were deciding what to wear to school, Yosi was making plans to ensure that one day it would be a pair of his shoes. When the opportunity finally came to expand the family business he offered up his eponymous collection and well the rest is history. The fold up flats are the headliners, at $50 you can afford to get a pair in most every color and color is very important to Samra. Let’s talk comfort shall we? These flats were made with that in mind, they are made to slip in your bag undetected and when the opportunity arises to stealthily slip out of those $600 stiletto’s that are KILLING you, you will have the Yosi Samra ballet flat to slip into and still be stylish as all get out–stiletto’s meet your new frenemy.
Yosi Samra is happily going to get you started on your fold up ballet flat collection. The winner will win not one but 2 pairs of leather ballet flats in the color of their choice. You just need to answer the following question by Monday, February 1, 2010:
What color flats would you want if you won and where would be the first place you wore them to?
Please check the winners box by Wednesday, February 3, 2010 to see if you won.

























Are those navy blue ballet flats I see before me?! It is ridiculously difficult to find cute navy shoes so, if they become available again on the Yosi Samra site, I would order those along with the bronze ones.
The first place I’m wearing these shoes is wherever I’m headed after I open the box! It could be to the library, it could be to the refrigerator, but I’m definitely putting these on!
the grey and blue you have featured here are beautiful! but i would need some black ones too….hmmm
I would wear them on my cruise this winter! can’t wait!
the bronze is to die for! and work appropriate, too!
I would love love the suede grey and the rose gold ones. And I would probably stash the rose one in my bag to wear on a day that I was going to the park and needed to slip off my heels into grass and soil friendly shoes, like those flats!
I would want a pair of silver and a pair of yellow. Silver would be worn with everything and adds a polished look to any outfit and the yellow flats are perfect for spring to brighten any spring skirt or dress!
I love the Gray Suede pair and her best friend Rose Gold Leather. I would wear my new Rose’s for date night. Just what I need to put a spring in my step.
Both the grey and black suede shoes look wonderful and seem like they could match almost any outfit! I’m sure I would wear them around the house the very first time, just to try them out. But after that, I can imagine wearing these almost anywhere!
OK, first let me say that when I opened this page my heart started palpitating! I have a serious shoe addiction so to be greeted by this giveaway excites me to no end. I would get the gold leather because lately I’ve been on a black and gold kick and since I already wear a lot of black these cute gold flats would be the perfect accessory. I would also get the grey suede pair because they look so lovely and sweet in the photo and I have a pair of 5″ stilettos in the same color. Since I am not Posh Spice these would be the perfect shoes to save me from the shame of breaking down in tears while walking or braving the floor barefoot. Honestly, the first place I would wear them would probably be to my daughter’s preschool to pick her up because I would definitely be rocking these flats as soon as the delivery man dropped off the box, and they would be the gold ones because my daughter and I love shiny things.
oh, I would wear those perfect little purple flats to spruce up my very wintery work attire. they would be the talk of the office!!
I would get them in gold and wear them on Easter and read “The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes” to my beloved niece.
I’d go for the purple and grey suede and I’d definitely be tucking these in my bag to wear to work… With this horrid weather in Chicago I have to wear wellies to work; riding public transit and sloshing through slush in heels just isn’t going to work for me. When I get to work it’s be awesome to pop on these lovelies.
I can’t decide between the navy and the purple! I’d wear these for a spring date night with my husband. He loves when I wear flats, he actually thinks they’re sexier then heels (oh how my feet love his taste, lol)
Beautiful!
I would wear the bronze leather (love) to Sunday brunch
I’d love Yosi Samra’s flats in bronze and grey. I would wear them to one of the events planned for my 20-year college reunion weekend. This will be the first such reunion I’ve been to, and I’m a bit (actually, more than a bit) nervous. These adorable shoes would give me the extra boost I need to look and feel casually chic. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
The color I’d choose is rose gold, and I’d put them on in the post office as soon as I get the package!
Purple!! And I would wear them to work first thing! Lots of cute shoes at work and these would be perfect! Not to mention I walk all day so these are more practical than heels but just as cute! I’m thinking with jeans and a cute button up top already…
I love the black leather, I would wear them to our homeschool co-op meeting with my boys! I want to be a hip mama!
Wow:)! The best flats I have ever seen since ages! I think that the grey suede and the black leather ones would suit me best. The grey ones are perfect for having a nice afternoon with my friends, both in winter and in summer, because grey ROCKS! And the leather ones…when I want to show out my true character;D
first of all, i love love love those blue ones in the picture, they are gorgeous. second of all, i would pick the gold flats and i would wear them to work and feel fabulous and not care about the comments my bosses would make (oh yes, they would).
I would do the Gray Leather. I would keep them at work to wear around the office! I walk about 1/2 mile every day too and from my car, so I wear tennis shoes in and out of work and then put on cute shoes while here. These are the perfect size to keep in my bag or in my desk and slip on once I get inside. Love these.
Grey suede – work is the first place these babies would go! My office is on the second floor. All my co-workers who I need to deal with daily are on the first. No elevator. My feet hurt by the end of the day, but at least I work off my lunch on those stairs! I’ve considered keeping slippers under my desk, but these are way cuter.
That gorggggeous navy! I’d pair them with grey tights, a swingy high-waisted skirt and floral top for a night out.
I’d pick Rose Gold and Grey, no question. The rose gold look like jewerly, and the grey are just so soft and lovely. I’d wear them to my cousin’s wedding this summer. He and his fiance live in Thailand and will be getting married on a sandy beach. I’d love to have a beautiful pair of shoes that I can easily take off and fold up when the tide comes in :)
If these are as comfortable as they look, I’ll likely get myself a pair of black leather as well, but rose gold and grey are at the top of my list. Thanks for posting this contest!
i like the silver, and navy ones.
and id definatly wear them to school first :]
I’d pick the black leather and the purple suede. I’d wear the purple suede first to one of my quilting classes just to show the ladies that even though I’ve recently turned 50, I’m still the fun loving, wild woman I’ve always been.
I would want the navy flats! I’d wear them to the movies with my boyfriend :)
Absolutely Purple suede… I would wear them to the airport for my trip to Mexico!!!
Rose gold! I’d wear the flats the second the rain stops!
I would love the black for work and the rose gold for fun after work :)
Cute shoes! I love the black ones, and the blue ones in the photo, also the brown ones on the site too :) I’d wear them to the library!
I would love the black, because I desperately need a new black flat, and the bronze is awesome! I would wear both pairs everywhere. I’m pregnant and heels just aren’t cutting it for me, so flats are a must have.
I would want them in navy because I need to break out of my black shoes/brown shoes rut. The first place I’d wear them is out to the coffee shop. I’d casually rest my feet on the chair next to me to show off these cuties.
I would have to get the gray suede. I wear my current pair of gray flats ALL the time and they are a bit worse for the wear. Would definitely have to wear them on a date with my boyfriend with my new pair of super dark wash jeans!
I would wear the purple suede flats to brunch on the first day of spring! They would go perfect with the newly sprouted crocus flowers.
I must say, as many before me, I am a huge fan of comfortable shoes! I actually live all beautiful shoes but was cursed with weird lumpy feet that seem to despise being contained in anything other than fuzzy slippers. I have had to let out many a whimper as I return pair after pair of shoes and hobble home with swollen blistered feet. It really is tragic. To find a shoe that is both comfortable AND beautiful is rare indeed! I would happily wear these shoes just about anywhere and everywhere! From church on Sundays to the park on a sunny afternoon! Your shoes are the silver lining to my cloud, and maybe that’s why I just love the grey suede and silver leather pairs!
I would want the Grey & the Purple Sueded ones! Love the Suede and those two colors are amongst my favorites!
The first place I’d wear them would be to work (I am a shift manager at a restaurant) cause I always get comments on anything new and stylish there :)
If I was lucky enough to get these beautiful ballet flats, I would want the black suede & a purple suede. Black is a classic color that would go with almost everything & the purple would just give a pop of color to my outfit! I would wear these ballet flats wherever I go, but I might be hesitant at first because I wouldn’t want it to get dirty. But if I had to choose where to go, I would wear these to a job interview. I’m sure my future employer will be impressed with my choice of interview shoes! :]
I want the Purple and Grey ones. I love, love, love flats. Actually, I don’t love them, I am obsessed with them. The first place I’d wear them is on stage and a gig in Miami. I would love to rock these while playing my songs.
I adore the grey suede! I love the soft color and think it would go perfectly with jeans,shorts and my summer dresses. Honestly the first place I would end up wearing them would be inside my house when I fit them on my feet and from there wherever I traveled to-from my children’s parent teacher conference to drinks out with the girls.
I love the grey suede ones… and knowing me, the first place I’d wear them would probably be to the market. I would be the cutest one there (or at least I’d feel like it).
I’d love a good pair of PURPLE ones! And I’d wear them to just about every place I take my kids…the library, shopping, dance class, playdates, the doctor, preschool…you name it. Spruce up my “mom” outfits, please! These would be FABulous with skinny jeans…
I would love any color, as soon as I come home from work, I put on ballet flats and these are so cute! I am not a “slipper” girl, I have always worn ballet shoes around the house even when I was a little girl, it was all capezio for me! These would be so fun… and I could take them easily with me when I travel as I always slip ballet slippers on for plane trips and in hotel rooms.
The absolutely adore the gold ballet flats and who wouldn’t?!?! I would wear these with a dark jean and a flowy top to a nice little get together to meet one of my very good friends new boyfriend on Febraury 22 at! one of my favorite restaurants Nacional 27
These look like the most comfortable ballet flats. I love the bronze and the grey suede ones. I would wear the grey pair out to lunch with the girls and the bronze pair to dinner with the boy.
okay…i would take any of the colors, but since I get to pick (!), I think I’m really lovin’ on the brown seude and silver leather! Silver shoes would make me just want to bebop around town! I live in Brooklyn near the Brooklyn Bridge, so I would just bebop myself right on over to Manhattan, skitter and show off down Wall St, cruise through Tribeca, loop into Soho, and end in the West Village…that way I’m cheer up all the depressed folks at the stock exchange and then make sure as many hipsters as possible would see me :) ha. The brown would be my “serious” shoes :) You know, for important trips to the grocery store, the MOMA, prospect park, to a yummy dinner, etc!
The rose gold ones are so beautiful! To me they are the absolute definition of feminine and pretty. I would mst certainly pick those because I’ve been stealthily trying to incorporate pink into my wardrobe – I always thought I couldn’t wear it because of my red hair, but on my feet, pink would be perfect!! And a more apt second question would be “Where wouldn’t I wear them??!?” They would never leave my feet!
I’d pick the grey and the rose gold. I’d wear them to rehearsal for the musical I’m in, partly because that’s all I seem to do lately but also because they look comfortable enough to dance around in!
I love the black leather and the grey suede! I’d definitely wear them on date night with my husband!
Definitely the purple ones! I absolutely adore brightly colored shoes, i consider shoes just as important to a wardrobe as pants or tops. I have a pair of orangey-red flats which I LOVE and wear all the time, with pretty much anything. I love mixing different colors. I would wear them immediately! If I had to run out to the supermarket, or work, or bunch (my favorite meal :o) ), these would be my first choice.
Good Afternoon!!
I would the Purple Suede to were to my 11 years olds first junior high dance as I am a chaparone!! The other to be the Black Leather to wear oh so comfortably in my office!!
Delightful!!
