These are really cute, and I found the fit to be true to size. The 9.5 feels like a 9.5 in length, and I'd say the width is medium. The heel height is great--not too high--and I love the partially-wrapped heel. The style of the bootie makes my large-ish feet look small (always a plus!). The top of the bootie is quite low-cut in the front, so it doesn't really work with skinny jeans tucked in. So I rolled up my jeans to just above the top of the bootie, and that looked cute. Leggings or tights would also work, as would bare legs with a skirt. The whiskey color is a nice, rich tan; neutral and versatile. This is my second pair of Miz Mooz. I almost gave up on the brand after trying several styles over the past year or two without success. Now I'm eager to have more, although they'll need to be on sale, as they are a bit pricey.
