These shoes are so beautiful I cried tears of joy upon opening the box! Like the other reviewers said, pictures don't do it justice, I promise. They are sexy, sparkly, attention grabbing for sure. I got the camouflage ones and I am about to order the leopard ones as well. I wore my camouflage to an event las week end with an understated all white dress, to let the shoes do all the talking, and they sure did talk a lot!!! lol Words can't describe how in love I am with these babies.
I found them true to size, like pretty much all my other Maddens. They are also not uncomfortable to me as other reviewers have mentioned. Heel height is 6.25 inches but with the platform, it feels like a 4 inch heel. I had them on for hours, standing up for the most part, and I was just fine. No breaking in required either. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.
