These shoes are beautiful and comfortable too!  The leather is very high quality and I got a ton of compliments when I wore them the other day.  They are tight and very true to size, maybe even a little small.  I normally wear a 6 1/2 or a 7, so I got a 7.  But I almost wish I had gotten a 7 1/2.  If my feet are swollen they are too tight.  Sometimes my heel slips a little.  But don't let these negative comments give you the wrong opinion.  They have WONDERFUL arch support - something you just don't find in heels.  I will be buying more of this brand for that reason.  They are pricey, but high quality.  I expect them to last.
