Overall, I like this shoe.  I ordered a 1/2 smaller due to the open toe.  I wore them to work on a Friday with jeans.  They fit OK in the morning, but by early afternoon, they were slipping off (oddly the right foot more than the left.)  I think a full size smaller would have ultimately been too small. There might be a fix with some sort of insert, but I've yet to fully explore that.

I like the platform as it increases stability and makes what appears a tall heel manageable.  I'm intrigued by the variety of fabrics and colors of this shoe as this pair (purple fabric) is unlike anything else in my closet, though I am not sure I would purchase additional pairs due to the sizing issue.
