I bought two pairs of this particular sandal, one in citrique and one in the pink. The pink is pink and the Citrine/Centrique is a greenish yellow. But the definite green cast is there, so it does not match the run of the mill yellows.

I normally wear a 7-7 and a half shoe. With a sandal, unless it is amazingly sized strangely, I can almost always wear a size 7 comfortably and a 7 1/2 is generally just a bit big, though it may be wearable. Wearable but not comfortable.

Bloch is a totally different animal in terms of size. For me an 8 looks nice as long as I just want to sit around and look well dressed. But to walk, I require an 8 1/2. So in ths sandal, I MUST buy a shoe a size and a half larger than my usual to get a good, comfortable fit. The goings back and forth of these with rebuys and returns took a little over a month, BUT AT THE END OF THE MONTH, I HAD THE MOST AMAZING SANDAL THAT I HAVE EVER OWNED. It is comfortable and a delight to walk in. It does not slip or slide on my foot but stays in position just as it should. The heel area has a "slightly" padded, diamond shaped area on it so that when your heel and sandal hit the ground, IT IS COMFORTABLE. The maker states this has slight padding; however, the maker originally was the author of ballet and tap shoes of the most reliable type. For the rookie shoe wearer, and I consider that to be anyone other than a dancer who must make his living based on the reliability of his shoes, I believe all would say the heel padding is THICK.

So here are the positives: COMFORTABLE, GROUND HUGGING, DESIGNED TO LAST SANDAL OF SOFT LEATHER, BEING EQIVALENT TO CASHMERE ON THE SOFTNESS SPECTRUM.

Exceptionally comfortable shoe.
Thick padding over heel area to prevent "pedal to the metal" bone jarring feeling that one gets while
  walking in most flat sandals.
Very soft leather covers entire shoe.
An even more soft leather lines the inside of the "T" of the sandal.
This same, extra soft leather covers most of the top foot area of the shoe (with the exception of the
  toes).
  I guess toes just have to be natively a bit tougher to make it through their life as part of your
  foot.
The sole is also a soft leather, but it is the type of soft leather that makes it adhere easily to the
  surface on which you are walking; that is, it is not the slipperly leather that sends one sliding
  across the sidewalk or driveway as the foot hits the ground. Nor is it the soft leather that
  immediately wears out. Its function is to keep the foot in
  CONTACT with the ground. Anyone who has gone sailing in a new pair of leather-bottomed shoes, with
  arms flailing to maintain stability without landing on one's face and knees knows of what I speak.
The bottom of the heel is split diagonally with the forward section being the a. ground hugging leather
  and b. the rear section being a hatched rubber which a. keeps the heel from wearing down or b.
  "running over".

NEGATIVE: the gyrations of figuring out what size you wear in this brand. If you can try them on locally, I would suggest you do so as this will aide with correct sizing without the necessity of sending shoes back and forth until you get the size you want. If you MUST order, try for a size about your normal size. If you are rich and famous, order all the sizes you MIGHT wear and return the rest.
POSSIBLE NEGATIVE: Centrique/Centrine has a greenish cast and is not a true yellow.

Do I recommend? Absolutely Yes. I am just on my way to order an additonal pair in their grey color, which is called Atmosphere!!!! Even though one must figure out their own personal size, I still give this 5 stars because it is SOOOO comfortable.

SUGGESTION: if Amazon does not have your size and color available, try site 6 PM as they generally seem to have a larger inventory.

This is also a beautiful Bloch sandal with all the attributes of the above. Purchase it if you like the strap shape better.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Bloch-London-Women-s-Tia-Thong-Sandal/dp/B004LWR6NM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Bloch London Women's Tia Thong Sandal</a>
