I've more grey skirts/bottoms of varying shades than I care to admit so I opted to purchase a grey pump. Unfortunately , I receieved a light grey , looking kinda slate shoe, much to my annoyance as none of my skirts are that shade of 'ash grey'. The picture of the shoe shows a darker grey.
To add insult to injury , I have a 8 1/2 black BCBG but because of a corn and the apparent pointy toe I went a half size up. To no avail as its too tight to wear-
 so I'm left with dyeing and stretching it or simply  giving it away.
Sigh!
