This is a beautiful shoe, it fit well, and seemed like it would be comfortable for such a high heel.  But the heel was quite a bit higher than described.  At least when I purchased the shoe, the heel was listed at 2.5 inches.  In reality, the heel in a size 9 shoe was a hair over 3 inches - too high for this 6-foot lady.  If you are ok with that height, the shoe really is lovely.
