I PURCHASED THESE SANDALS LAST WEEK AND I FINALLY RECEIVED THEM TODAY. I AM GLAD I ORDERED AN 8 1/2, I LEARNED MY LESSON FROM THE LAST PAIR OF SHOES I ORDERED. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR AN ODD COLOR PAIR OF SHOES TO WEAR WITH A CANDIES SKIRT I BOUGHT. WHEN I OPENED THE BOX I WAS AMAZED WITH THE COLOR. HOW CLOSE IT WAS IN MATCHING THE AQUA COLOR IN MY SKIRT!! I AM SOOOOOO PLEASED I CAN HARDLY CONTAIN MYSELF. KENNETH COLE I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR MAKING SUCH A PERFECT COLOR AND SEXY SHOE FOR MY BEAUTIFUL FEET TO WEAR:) MY DESIGNS ON MY TOES WILL ENHANCE THE SEXINESS OF THE SANDAL. I ALSO WANT TO SAY, THIS SANDAL MAY HAVE A WEDGE ON IT, NOT LIKE OTHER WEDGE HEELS ARE HEAVY THAT WEIGH A PERSON DOWN. AT TIMES ONE MAY HAVE TO DRAG THEIR FEET OR TAKE SMALL STEPS IN ORDER TO WALK; ON THE OTHER HAND, THIS WEDGE IS VERY LIGHT AND EASY TO MANAGE. IF YOU HAVE TO TAKE OFF RUNNING FROM SOMEONE, RUNNING TO A TAXI, A TRAIN OR THE SUBWAY, THIS WEDGE HEEL WILL GIVE YOU THE ABILITY TO PICK UP YOUR FEET WITHOUT HAVING TO TAKE THEM OFF AND RUN FOR WHAT YOU ARE CHASING:) I RECOMMEND THIS SANDAL TO ALL.
