At first these shoes were stiff, the leather is very hard. After a week or so the shoes became comfortable. These shoes looked great and received a lot of compliments. The sole of the shoe wore fairly quickly. I liked them a lot and would have purchased another pair, but they do not have my size any more. I would recommend this style.

Gabriella Rocha's "Bess" is the most perfect fit for my foot, actually an 11N, but her 11M fits. I love the style of this princess flat with its slightly pointed toe. It gives a good amount of support, for dancing the night away. I wish it were available in more colors and materials. I especially would love black suede or navy suede and any type of plaid. Right now I only have the black patent and brown suede. It is also perfect for any occasion; work, play, night at the opera; whatever you need to do, this is the shoe to have with you!

Love this sweet little shoe. They run a bit on the small side, so keep that in mind when ordering. Also, be sure to soften the back. I sported some blisters after the first wearings. All is good now.

Generally I wear a 7, but about 20% of the time I need a 6-1/2. I ordered these in a 7. I can get them on, but walking is quite painful. I realize that leather stretches, but I feel certain they will not stretch enough. Not to mention the torture I would endure while stretching them! They are super cute, but unless my pair was wrongly sized I would recommend ordering 1/2 size larger than usual!

Once you break them in (a few times of wear), they're extremely comfortable. I liked them so much that when I wore out my first pair, I ordered another!

After reading previous reviews, I ordered a half size larger than I normally wear and the shoes fit perfectly. It is true that the top of the shoe comes down far enough to not show any toe cleavage, but they still expose almost the entire top of the foot. The top comes to just below where my toes meet my foot, and because of this, I think it makes them more comfortable. I have a large tattoo on the top of my foot and these don’t cover any of it. They are perfectly pointy, comfortable, and absolutely perfect for work! I will be ordering more in other colors!

Great shoe - This shoe arrived lickety-split. They are very comfortable and cute. I went by a previous review suggesting to order a half size larger, and they were right.

Love these shoes. The black patent leather dresses them up as flats and they go with everything. The shape of the shoe is universally flattering.

I've ordered these boots twice because I needed rubber waterproof boots for melting snow and slush. Most of the winter here it is too cold to wear these because they are not lined. I only wore them during the melting snow months. The first time I bought them, I had worn them perhaps 5 times, and rubber/plastic split from the sole causing a deluge of water to get into my feet. I returned them for another pair. Again, the same thing happened. Do not buy these boots. They may last you 6 wears if you are lucky.

Great shoe! I am loving this shoe. It's comfortable, and I can wear it with jeans or a skirt. It's perfect. Exactly what I was looking for!

I didn't find these shoes as great in person, the toe part is pretty high up on your foot, not so good if your feet are a little wider (like mine). They're cute, though it looks a little weird having the front of my foot so covered.
