As mentioned by others, these are just too cute and unique for words.  Loved the styling.  Very well made.  I bought my normal size and think its accurate to size, though they will require some loosening up in the toe box at the start.  The super platform enables walking despite the height so that works too, even for someone not adept at heels.  Only reason I did not give them 5 stars is because gotta face it.....these are not cushy sneakers....these are big girl shoes....and well worth the fun points!
