These are way better in person than in the pic. I got the, for my bridesmaids in my wedding last month, and had to hear all of the girls humm and haw about my terrible picks for the wedding right up until the night before, when I gave them these shoes in real life. When they saw the pics, they hated them, but once they got these on their feet, they were singing a different tune. I did not have the same shoes, so I have never worn them, but they all wore the, all night long and didn't even have to change into the slippers I got them. They LOVE these shoes.
