I hate shopping for shoes because apparently I'm incredibly picky.  Heel height, color, material, platform vs non-platform... these are all things I have trouble budging on so to find what I consider the perfect heel that hits all the right notes is like Christmas morning every day.  The point isn't too drastic for me and the heel height is perfect.  Madden shoes have always been a great choice for me personally because I walk heavy on my heels and Madden's always seem to stand the test of time.  The only thing is that these seem to need a few extra wears to break them in, but other than that I think they're fabulous.
