i too purchase these beautiful shoes for a wedding. There very beautiful, i'll give them an A+ for sheen, and A+ for sparkling but thats about it. There's no stability for the heel which made the night very uncomfortable. The rhinestones moved alot and as a result i have several mini cuts on my feet from them. Over all if you plan to just sit all night then the shies are great, but if you like to dance then don't bother with these shoes !!
