Coloriffics Desire - Love the style but too tight on the toes. I can tell these will stretch out over time. My big toes are the longest and I have toe overhang in these 5 1/2's. These shoes might look better on more rounded slender toes rather than that of squared off toes like mine.

I was very pleased with my Coloriffics purchase. I needed this shoe to take with me on vacation and I received it the following day. Overall, this buy was a steal.

Beautiful shoes, but size a little off - I ordered these shoes for my wedding and they are beautiful. I wear a 5.5 in all of my shoes, but these were a little too big. My heel was sliding out of the shoe. I'm going to order the 5 and compare. I walked around in them for a few minutes and didn't think that they were the most comfortable shoe, but definitely manageable.

Pretty shoe but fit is not the best - This shoe is very beautiful and true to size; however, the backs kept slipping off my feet. A shoe size smaller would've put my toes over the front edge so I had to return.

The Shoes are Gorgeous! I purchased these shoes for my upcoming wedding, and they are gorgeous. Initially I had purchased a size 5.5 and it fit me loose. So I purchased the size 5 and it fit perfectly. The heel is 4 inches high... I’m not sure where they are getting the 3 1/2 inch heel that they are stating. I walked around with them on, and they were comfortable. I love the shoe! And I’m sure you will too.

Pleasantly surprised... I like better shoes and wasn't expecting much from these, but I needed something to go with my wedding dress, and ivory shoes are hard to come by off-season. These happened to match my silk jersey dress perfectly, and they were surprisingly comfortable with no wearing in period, even after hours on my feet, greeting guests and dancing. Recommended.

This shoe is very pretty. I know you're supposed to measure the inside of the heel to get the heel height. Not sure where the manufacturer got 3 1/4". Even from the back of the heel, it measures 4". Very high shoe. Very nice shoe, but sad to see how tall they are. Not practical for wedding day and reception unless you're planning on taking them off or will be walking on carpet the entire night so you don't fall over.

Beautiful - I love my shoes. They match my ivory wedding dress perfectly and fit exactly as they should. I did buy some gel pads to wear in them since I'm walking "down the aisle" down a grand staircase. :)

I can't walk in them - I'm a seasoned stiletto gal and these were very hard to walk in! I tried two different sizes and they were either too loose or too tight, especially around the heel area. Very cute, though. I was bummed I couldn't find a pair that fit.

Beautiful! Couldn't be happier - These shoes were everything I expected and more. I was a bit worried that they would not be comfortable, but that fear was unfounded. I love the shoe and although my original purchase was for my wedding, would consider purchasing them again for evening use.

Beautiful Shoe - This shoe arrives exactly as represented in the photographs. It is a beautiful shoe. I gave it only 4 stars for comfort as it is as comfortable as you would expect heels of this height to be! I am very pleased with this shoe. It looks like a much more expensive shoe than it is, too!

Hot Shoe! I ordered these shoes for my wedding next year... I'm not sure how comfortable they are because I haven't tried to break them in yet. As far as I can tell from the short time I had on, they don't have any padding at the ball of your foot… but I think some inserts will help with that. I have another pair of shoes that are VERY similar and after I broke those in, they were pretty comfortable. The shoe itself is very pretty. I've gotten nothing but compliments on them.

Beautiful Wedding Shoes - These shoes are great- I wore them for the first time on my wedding day for over 8 hours and had no blisters or sores. I can never wear a new pair of shoes for that long without being uncomfortable. The shoes have a 3.5 inch heel and are not too narrow at the ball of the foot. I give them an A

I LOVE these shoes! They are absolutely beautiful and fit perfectly. I wouldn't say they are *comfortable* (have you seen that heel?!), but they don't feel like they'll cause blisters or anything. Just a little high.

Best purchase. I purchased these shoes in ivory for my wedding recently and I must admit, it was not only beautiful it was very comfortable. I wore the shoes for 10 straight hours and did not suffer in any way. Apart from the many complements I received about my dress, the shoes went right along with it. I would recommend these shoes to any bride who is looking for comfort and style. The price was well worth it.

Reviewer: Satisfied B from Redlands, California

Wedding Shoe - The shoe was beautiful. I originally ordered a size 5, which turned out to be too tight across my instep. I ordered a size 5 ½ and, at the initial try on, the shoe fit perfectly. But after practicing my first dance in it over the course of a few days, the straps over the toes and instep had stretched out, causing my feet to slip down and leaving about a half inch behind my heel. I used shoe inserts to remedy it, but my heel was still slipping out of the shoe. The size 5 might have worked better after all, considering how much the straps stretched. Overall, though, I was very happy with the appearance of the shoe.

Beautiful, but uncomfortable - These shoes are absolutely gorgeous in person; I couldn't believe how perfectly the ivory matched my dress and the rhinestone buckle added just the right amount of sparkle. I got a lot of compliments on the shoes alone! However, after wearing these shoes for only two hours (during my bridal portraits), it quickly became apparent that I would need gel inserts of some kind for the wedding. There is no support whatsoever for the ball of your foot and it gets quite painful after a while. But invest in some good gel inserts and you'll be fine.

Love this shoe!! I JUST got these shoes in the mail yesterday and couldn’t wait to try them on. They are beautiful!! The heel is a little higher than I thought they would be, but they felt comfortable for not breaking them in yet. I’m very happy I found these shoes for my wedding and would recommend them wholeheartedly. The only thing I’m upset about is that I still have to wait a year to wear them ;-P

Wedding Shoes - I bought this pair for my wedding. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone that is not used to heels. They are really high...not necessarily good for grass, but I fared ok. They are very pretty and classy and I am glad I went with this pair.
