I have gotten SO many compliments on these bad boys already. I'm obsessed. They bring a little bit more pizazz to an outfit and can be the centrepiece of an outfit. The shoe is a little looser than it shows in the photo (heel to back of shoe ratio) but I'm also a 7.5 in shoes and these shoes accommodate 7.5-8 so it makes sense that there would be a little bit of space. It's not bad though, and it feels like it fits well regardless of that. These aren't a shoe I'd normally buy myself, but because they were in sale, I decided I'd try, and I LOVE them. It makes me wonder how many fun things I'm missing out on because I'm afraid to branch out and buy the thing that's fun rather than just practical. Haha.
