These shoes were cute, and came in wide so they were comfortable for me. I actually got quite a few compliments.....at first. I bought them toward the end of the summer, to replace a similar pair I'd had for ~ 3 years. But, within less than two weeks the sparkles began to come off. At first I thought I'd just glue them back on, but now too many of them have dropped off and disappeared for me to consider that. At the rate they are losing their bling, I will wear them perhaps two weeks more, before they'll head to the trash can.
