I love the jewel purple color. It looks just like the photo. I've been looking at these for almost a year and finally bought them. They're really comfortable, although they aren't suited for long distance walking or running. They're more for fashion in my opinion. I usually wear a 7.5, and think that I might have done better in an 8; The 7.5 seem just a little snug. Overall, I love the shoes, and because they didn't have an 8, I'm keeping these. Glad I finally bought them
