I was very reluctant to buy shoes online that I couldn't try on first, but these were exactly what I was looking for and couldn't resist! They are every bit as cute as the pictures, and surprisingly comfortable!!  I am usually a size 9, but depending on the shoe or boot,  I can fit anywhere between an 8.5 to 10. I chose a size 9 in these, since they didn't offer half sizes.  They are very lightweight, soft material. The elastic isn't too tight. The shoes cover enough of the top of my foot that there isn't any 'toe cleavage' showing. The biggest plus,  is that they don't rub the back of my heel raw. They are slightly snug in the toe area, but I think after wearing them a bit,  they'll stretch out a little more.  When I first put them on I noticed a funny sound at my toes when I walked; possibly from the painted toenails rubbing against the top of the shoes inside. But after wearing them for 2 hours now, I'm noticing that the sound is decreasing.  Very very cute shoes at a great price, with fast shipping.  I'm going to order another pair in another color!!
