Bought this pair to replace the ones my 18yo daughter wore into the ground after 2 1/2 years. She wore them to 2 proms, nearly every Sunday at church, and most days of the week. They go with everything (dress them up! dress them down!), are super cute, incredibly comfortable, and very stylish. 2 1/2 years may not seem like a long life-span, but my daughter really, really got her money's worth out of them. I was happy to replace them!
