Unlike other reviewers, I am accustomed to high heels and I love these shoes! The rise is perfect (4" difference between platform and heel heights) - this is one of the key things I look for in shoes I intend to wear for more than sitting around. Anything over a 4" rise will be very uncomfortable to walk around in - less than a 4" rise doesn't give the legs as nice a look.

I am a fan of Jessica Simpson shoes because they have great style and usually wear well. Ie, they are the kind of heels you can actually WEAR and walk around in without contemplating foot amputation. haha.

Pros:
Perfect 4" rise
Great height for the high heel lovers
Nice sole that doesn't slide all over shiny floors
Comfortable enough to walk around in for extended periods

Cons:
I wish they came in more colors!!!

I got the burnt red and love it. Great colorful shoe that can be used with a bold outfit or add a little pizzaz to a more sophisticated look without going overboard.
