This is a very attractive shoe and would be perfect for work or social occasions.  The quality is excellent for the price.  My problem was that the heel is actually 3" from the floor to the base of the shoe.  The seller says:  "There are 2 ways to measure a heel, so the ad on Amazon is correct, because so many people measure a heel differently. IF you measure the ACTUAL little square heel part of the shoe, it's about 1 1/2". If you measure from the base of the square heel to the heel part of the actual shoe where the leather begins, it is 3". With the odd shape of heels, that's why there are different measurements."  But if you have artificial knees as I do, and have trouble with high heels, be aware that this particular heel is high.  If you don't have a problem with high heels, I would recommend this shoe.
