Finally!!!! I have been searching for the perfect nude platform pump for my skin tone. The problem is that as a Black Woman, it has been hard finding an affordable (There are some cute ones in the perfect shade for $220+) version in the right shade of brown. The Luxe by Franco Sarto fits the bill!! The Cognac shade is a perfect match for my caramel complexion. The shoe is also surprisingly very comfortable, and very easy to walk in!! My only complaint being that the sole is a bit slippery. Nothing a little sanding with sandpaper won't fix. Thanks to the existing reviews I ordered a half size smaller than my normal size7. It was still too big, so I sent back for a size 6 and it is perfect!! So definitely order at least 1/2 size smaller than normal. These also look great in the Pewter Metallic and the Animal Print. A truly fabulous shoe!!
