I bought these shoes largely because I have a shoe fetish and they are adorable; however they were also an incredible Amazon warehouse deal and New Year's Eve was looming.

These are very tall - but amazingly stable to walk in and true to size.  I did get some impressive blisters on the joint above my instep...but what can I expect wearing a brand new pair of stiff-fabric shoes all night with no break-in?  I danced without really even sitting down for several hours and had never worn them before that.  I think if you wore them around in smaller intervals to break them in you will have better results.  I received many compliments on these and will definitely wear again now that my feet have healed :-).  Also - the glittery fabric of which these are constructed is high quality - no flecks of glitter rubbing off or leaving a trail of sparkly dust all over.
