As far as the apperance goes, the shoes are as gorgeous as they look.  The problem lies within the fit.  They are nowhere near true to size.  I ordered my true size and I couldn't start to get my feet into them.  They would need to be ordered at least a whole size bigger.  This is probably due to the fact that they are very narrow and do not give way at all.  I would highly recommend them because of the apperance but be sure to order a size bigger than your normal.
