I have these stilletos in red/black.  They are beautiful but the buckle is tin like and cheap looking so I took fine sand paper and carefully brushed the buckle to make it look burnished, it worked! I took other reviewers suggestion and ordered 1/2 size smaller than my size (7) and this works for me. I have a average (med) foot. The shoe is a stelleto so don't expect a lot of comfort but expect a lot of complements. I would buy another color if they had my size left in the Tan.
