I bought these in the wine colour, and based on the picture it appeared to be a nice rich dark wine colour, unfortunately what i received was far from the colour i had anticipated.  In person the stones on the front straps are more red in colour and in my opinion seem a little tacky.  Like another commenter stated, i'm not sure if toes are supposed to show through the peep toe of this shoe.  I ordered an 8.5 as i typically wear 8.5 but these just seemed too big for me, maybe i should have gone with an 8 or the black.  i still love nine west shoes though and would definitely continue to purchase nine west shoes in the future
