I really liked these but initially felt they were not stable enough and was planning to return them.  Two-to-three days later when I went to box them up I gave them another try and LOVED them.  The original issue was the heel - I took the first step, heard a creaking sound and thought "uh oh!".  Glad I gave them another go before returning because they are true winners.  The satin is super soft and the sparkling rhinestone-type embellishment gives just enough pizazz/oomph/flourish to transform these from being daytime-plain to being evening-stylish.  They're comfortable and for me they ran absolutely true to size.  Recommend!
