i believe what you see is what you get! i ordeered a 8.5 and that is what i needed in the turqoiuse and its lovely.  This color sold out pretty fast and it is indeed worth it.  i use to wear a 8 in nine  west i am no sure what has happensed over time ive had to move up a half size the shoe is  HIGH 4 INCHES!  and of course if you measure from the stack up then  you would get  or 5 1/2 but the heel stands a lone when you measure if you include tth stacked heel then it makes it a higherheel.  The color is HOT and im looking forward to doing these with jeans and drsssed uup.  I will say if you are not a heel person be prepeard to only do short distances in these.  The shoese looks exactly like what i ordered i was looking fro something diffrent! Bright fantastic and  diffrent then the norm of a skinny pumped patent hheel.  I am very pleased. If you want to order I say give it a try you would be surpriised and if you don't care for them then of course you can send them back! but lovely diffrent and i think its an addition to the shoes factory of mine!
