I needed a pair of navy blue shoes to match several dresses I wear to work, so I purchased these, thinking they were the best I was able to find. They ended up being the absolute perfect shoe - perfect look & perfect color! I don't think the picture captures how nice these are... they simply look fabulous on my feet! They look professional enough for me to comfortably wear them to business meetings, and I am a fairly conservative person. The fit is true to size and comfortable to wear... I have started to wear them with my blue jeans too!
