I got this for my sons wedding in the pewter and it is gorgeous! Just enough sparkle but not gaudy. I usually wear an 8 or 81/2  med or wide depending on the shoe. In these I wear an 81/2 wide. They do run a little short and narrow. The heel is not to high, so it is quite comfy. Great for a few hours, not for all day I think. Ordered black also for a cruise I just went on and they were very comfy and received many compliments!
