I wear a 9 so I ordered a 9 and they fit like a 9. However, if I could hop in my time machine, I'd order half a size up so I'd have room for some insoles. The thing with all Journee Collection shoes is they have zero percent cushion. They're what my grandmother calls "sittin' down shoes." If you plan to be on your feet for any length of time, your feet are going to hurt because you're basically walking on the ground. I'm glad I bought them because they're cute and I wear them often because I have a sitting down job. But like I said, wish I had some insoles.
