My friend and I got these shoes for our friend's wedding. They are a beautiful shoe and matched the dress perfectly but they hurt the whole time. I read all the reviews which stated they were comfortable (have no idea how) and took the advice of ordering a 1/2 size larger because they do run small. I even had "Killer Kushionz" in them and they still hurt the ball and heel of my foot. At one point during the ceremony my toes were numb! An okay shoe if you're going out and sitting for dinner; but that's it. If you're looking for comfort, keep looking! I was very disappointed for how much they cost that they hurt equally as bad.

I love this shoe! My 3A narrow feet are hard to fit, especially in an elegant shoe. The size of this shoe is true and the double heel strap fits securely at the ankle for the narrow foot. The heel height is not too high but attractive and perfect for dancing!

Let’s face it, dressy shoes like this are not made for comfort but for style, and these shoes were absolutely LOVELY with the navy blue cocktail dress I wore to a formal wedding. I was afraid I wouldn’t survive the evening without foot pain and was prepared to suffer for the sake of fashion. Surprisingly I wore them throughout the wedding and the reception and was even able to dance! BTW, they have a hard leather sole so they're great for dancing. I’m not saying they were as comfortable as house slippers, but the fact that I could wear them for six+ hours with my temperamental, problematic feet was amazing. God bless Vaneli for having them in narrow widths. And thank you Zappos! Navy blue dress shoes are non-existent in my town.

I originally ordered this shoe in the normal width and it was very narrow, so exchanged for the wide and it's perfect! Very chic looking and the heel is just high enough to give the leg a sexy curve. I should be able to wear them all day. I have a somewhat wide foot and they feel wonderful. Very well made, a bit high in price, but it's impossible to find a nice strappy navy shoe here in Europe. Zappos saved the day for me!

I was very pleased with these shoes. Very dressy and really quite comfortable. Was very elegant looking with the evening dress. Also, I received them in the mail very quickly.

I bought these shoes for my son's wedding. They are really flattering on the foot and I like that the back strap does not slide off the heel. They run a bit narrow, so the "D" width I ordered fit more like a "C" width. The shoe was sexy, yet comfortable. I would have preferred this color in leather rather than the satin fabric. The satin fabric is not forgiving in any "stretch" so the leather would be preferred. This style is awesome. Please make more colors in this style, and in leather, please.

Typically I wear a size 6.5, but required a 7 in this shoe. I purchased these to wear to a wedding and was looking for something dressy and pretty yet with a low enough heel I could wear them for hours and do a lot of dancing at the reception. These were perfect! They are beautiful, elegant and comfortable. I think I got more compliments on my shoes than I did my dress!

The Vaneli Larinda is a perfect afternoon wedding, garden party, dance 'til dark / dance-in-the dark, pretty, light, dressy sandal.I love the shoe; it is well constructed, comfortable, and the sheen of the material is nice as to be eye-catching.

These shoes look elegant and dainty. I wish they fit my foot. Yes, they are narrow. The band across the top cut my bony foot at all angles, especially the top of my big toe when walking. The non-adjustable straps complete the return of these shoes.

The shoes are simple, yet elegant. The satin bows are lovely. I bought them to wear to my nephew's wedding and wore them for the first time on the day of the wedding. I was afraid my feet might hurt, but I stood for hours and then I danced for hours. The shoes were comfortable and looked fantastic. I absolutely recommend these shoes to everyone. You won't be disappointed.

I normally wear 4B. After reading the reviews to order a half size up, I was nervous to do so. I did and was glad I heeded the reviews! My 4.5 fits perfectly. The shoe is classy and VERY comfortable. I think minus the bow, would make the style easier to 'dress up or down'.

I bought these shoes because I needed dark brown for a summer wedding. I wanted a suede finish on them because the dress I wore was chiffon. Anything shiny would not have looked good. These shoes were PERFECT. Very pretty. Nicer and more elegant than just a summer sandal. They were comfortable and the heel height was just right for walking outside on the grass. They were very appropriate for the occasion. They were well worth the price, and I can get more wear out of them by pairing with dress pants or other dresses in the summer and fall.

Great looking shoe for that special occasion, but I usually wear a narrow and it was very slim. Re-ordered in medium and it was perfect.

The shoes are beautiful and comfortable! I got the navy satin. They’re shiny. It’s difficult to find a navy shoe. I wore them with a cocktail dress and they were perfect.

I am not new to the pleasure of shopping Zappos.com. In fact, it’s my favorite shopping experience and one that I often encourage others to try. I cannot find narrow widths anywhere in this area, including many of the large department stores in Chicago. I have never been disappointed with Zappos selection, delivery, or return policy or procedure. It’s simple, stress free, and customer friendly. I purchased the Vaneli Larinda specifically to wear to an important wedding. They were both comfortable, stylish, and well constructed. For a dress sandal, the arch support was adequate, if not better than most. The heel height was reasonable without being matronly or too young. (I’m in my late 40s.) Overall, the shoe was a winner on all fronts and I received many compliments on them.

I got these for my son’s wedding and they were perfect for the day. By the end of the evening, the balls of my feet were a little sore, but basically they were quite comfortable. I needed 1/2 size larger than usual, and the narrow width was as expected. They are very pretty and I got lots of compliments on them.

I bought these to wear for my son’s wedding. They looked great, and I got many compliments. I have wide feet, so no shoes are ever truly comfortable for me, but these were as comfortable as any dress shoe. The heel was high enough to be stylish, especially under a long dress, but not so high as to be uncomfortable or difficult to walk in.

I bought these for my son’s wedding and they were perfect. I got them in wide size and I didn’t even need to break them in. Zappos was fantastic. I bought them in a 8.5, but they were too small, so I called and they shipped out a 9 right away. They were awesome!

Definitely recommend these shoes. The picture is accurate, and in person they are very pretty and appear well-made. They do run slightly small, so ordering a half-size up might be a good idea. I wore them at a wedding where I spent lots of time dancing and on my feet, and -- as evening shoes go -- they were pretty comfortable. I did realize the next day that they'd rubbed a couple blisters, but overall I think they were pretty comfortable.

Hard to find dressy Navy sandal...wore this to my daughter's wedding. Very good looking and relatively comfortable, however even my normally narrow foot was squished a bit in the front in a Medium width shoe...would recommend ordering a size wider than normal.

A very pretty, flattering dress sandal that is both modern and feminine. The heel is a great height- just high enough to be stylish, but not too high that I can't walk or dance in them! And they fit just great- very true to size and width.

Should have read the customer reviews before ordering. You should order a 1/2 size up. The shoe design is beautiful. Beware...navy is very dark. So much so, I almost thought they were black.

These shoes are surprisingly comfortable! I wouldn't try walking for exercise in them but as far as sexy, highish heels go, these are great. And this is from someone with notoriously painful feet.

 |  | Hi Zappos, I am having printer problems and payday is not until Wednesday so I will try to send back my purchase next weekend. Meanwhile, I want to compliment your company and your telephone staff. Whenever I have called Zappos I do not feel zapped or trained at the end of the conversation as with some other companies. Your telephone specialists are very knowledgeable and equally courteous to me. I have been a National Sales Manager for a telemarketing firm so I really know firsthand the importance of a capable staff. You got it Zappos! Have a merry week. |  | ~ Jan B., November 09 2009
