The picture doesn’t do these heels any justice! I was wondering how I could add a little sparkle to what I thought was a flat muted type leather but when I opened the box and took the heels out of the bag I was so excited to see that they have a silvery metallic sheen! I usually wear an 8.5 my foot is 10” long but the 8.5 was just a hair too short. One toe on my left which is a hair bigger than my right was on the edge so I sent the 8.5 back and ordered a 9. I hope that the 9 fits like Cinderella’s slipper cuz these shoes are amazing! They are comfortable too! I’ll be 58 (in 2 days) and I haven’t worn heels as high as these in a very long time but these heels have a very secure footing and I feel confident wearing them. I will update this review once I get the 9’s and break them in to let u know how they work out. They look stunning with my wedding guest dress, they are perfect! The colors allow you to wear so many different colors and that is a plus as well! I def recommend these gorgeous shoes! Oh, btw - they feel more like a boot than ur typical high heels. Another plus!! I may buy the other color as well, and will def ck out this brands other options!Update, at first the 9’s felt just the same as the 8.5’s did and I was bummed thinking I had to return these and find another pair of shoes, but after wearing them around for a few minutes I could tell they were already breaking in. Seems fast, but they are worth it however long they last, which I expect will be a long time. Def recommend these gorgeous heels!!
