Super comfy!
Comfortable
Fit great and can be worn for hours. I don't wear heels very often, but these are so comfortable and no sore feet at the end of the day.
I own almost no heels because I hate being uncomfortable. These are fantastic and I can wear them even on my walk into work. A little big on me when ordering my usual size so maybe consider sizing down if you're between sizes.
good shoes
This are nice but you just have to stick an anti slip to make sure you don’t slip when walking at the mall. A little bigger for me, maybe 1/4 inch. I bought size 7. Don’t know why… but the ones i bought at the outlet malls are just perfect size.
First, what a comfortable shoe. The sole is really nicely padded throughout and for the height of the heel it reaaally doesn't feel like you're wearing heels. I don't forget I'm wearing them, but I can be on my feet all day without issues.Second: The yellow suede was a wonderful surprise, it really is a beautiful color. It's a yellow with just enough gold in it to go with lots of outfits. Anything with sunflowers on it is a no-brainer but darker solid colors work very well with the yellow too. It softens the cork of the platform and makes the shoe overall look more professional; I wear these to work a lot, where if it were a yellower yellow I'd feel I had to save it for with sundresses in casual settings.
