Very happy with my first pair of Bandolino shoes. Am normally a 5 or 51/2 but purchased a 6 which fit really well so would recommend purchasing a 1/2 size up from what you would generally purchase. These shoes can be dressed 'up' or 'down' depending on the occasion. Looks great with full length length or 3/4 length trousers as well as skirts and dresses.
