I've never put on a more uncomfortable shoe. I have many pairs of 4-5" heels, and none are as painful as these.  Just fitting my toes into the front of the shoe is a challenge. I have to wedge my toes in sideways, twist the shoe straight to get my heel in, and then wiggle my toes around until they aren't bunched under themselves (they're still squished and scrunched).  I'm usually a size 8, with the occasional 7 1/2 fitting. I ordered the size 8,and the heel of the shoe fits fine, but it's like the designer forgot people have toes attached to the ball of their feet.

I would have given this shoe 1 star instead of 2, but they are truly pretty shoes. If you happen to be a masochist, these shoes might be the perfect pumps for you. As for this girl, I think I'm gonna have to return them.
