As a serious devotee of high heels, this one is a winner. In fact, almost all of PLV line is great--comfy, stylish, and well made. The Larkin falls into that same category. This is a beautiful shoe and a great addition to any shoe wardrobe. Great change from all of the super high streamlined pumps that I already own. Further, the sizing is perfect! I wear a nine, ordered a nine, and it fits perfectly.
