This is my second pair of Spring Step L'Artiste Aneria Mules.  The first was the teal color.  I loved them so much I wanted another pair in a more neutral color.  I would give these 5 stars, but for some reason the velcro closure sometimes comes open.  My teal pair never have that problem.  Perhaps it is just an isolated flaw.  People always notice these and my teal pair and ask where I got them.  I know of at least one other pair of these that are out walking around on a friend's feet because she ordered her pair from her phone while sitting on my couch!
