Ordered these along with several other wedding shoe contenders. Pros: They are pretty comfortable, and rather lovely, even with blue jeans. The fit is true to size. I went for ivory because of my dress. I read somewhere that you can dunk a white dyeable shoe in tea for a second to make it ivory, so that's not the biggest factor, but it's nice to have a shoe that you know matches. Cons: The ankle strap is pretty high on your ankle, so it doesn't secure your heel to the back as much as you might like, and there's not much around the heel to grab you otherwise. (But it somehow stays on enough that you could dance in it with confidence.) Also, the high ankle strap I think makes my calves look wide, but that's just me and my wide calves. The other downside is lack of padding under the toe box. It FEELS like a high heel, which might be bad news for a long night of dancing. Finally, the stitching is pretty scratchy around my ankle. Not bad for walking around the office for twenty minutes, but possibly chafey for a whole wedding. Verdict: If this were the only shoe I'd ordered, I'd be very satisfied. Since it has some competition, I might go for something more comfortable/suitable for wearing in the future.

This is just the cutest and most comfortable shoe! I'm a vegetarian and am always trying to find fashionable, "cruelty free" (a.k.a., non-leather) shoes to buy, but often have the hardest time. "Lola" saved the day! I was looking for a somewhat dressy, yet still casual (if that makes any sense at all!) evening pump for a beach wedding, and this shoe totally fit the bill. I was worried that the crystal beading on the top of the shoe might look at bit tacky, but not at all - just a fun touch of understated glam. As for the fit, I have found that with Annie's shoes if your foot is the least bit wide, then most definitely go with the W width. Provides a little extra width without being at all loose or sloppy. This is an extremely comfortable and cute shoe. Can't wait to wear it at the wedding I will be attending in September. Will let you know how it holds up to dancing, but I really don't anticipate any problems. Oh, and by the way - did I mention that Zappos rocks? Amazing site, incredible selections, awesome service. Thank you so much!

Super cute shoe! I have wide toes and a narrow heel and usually have difficulty finding shoes to fit. The heel is a bit higher than what I wanted on my wedding day, but it seems pretty comfortable so far. I would recommend ordering a half size smaller than what you wear since it is wide in the toe. My only complaint would be that is does not come with a dust cover, silly I know, but most dress shoes do.

These shoes are super stylish and very comfortable. I wore them to a wedding and was able to dance all night without having to change into flip flops. :) Every time I wear them I receive compliments. They are fun and sophisticated, and they look much more expensive than they actually are. Great shoe - I've already purchased them in two colors.

With my daughters wedding coming up, I have searched for not only beautiful shoes, but comfortable ones. I have a very narrow foot. Every sandal seems to push my foot forward. Not a good thing, BUT these shoes are truly PERFECT. Really pretty, comfortable, and elegant. I am very happy with these shoes and I hope they will stand up to a lot of dancing when my daughter gets married.

I bought these to wear for my sons 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.

This was the 4th pair of shoes I ordered from Zappos in my search for wedding shoes. These are lovely--they did feel a little big at first, maybe half a size, but once I put in some heel cushions, the fit was perfect. I also think your foot swells as the day goes on, so I didn't want to get a smaller size, only to have them feel too tight at the end of the day. Heel is not too high, just right...oh, and Zappos is the best for returning and re-ordering! Yay for wedding shoes!!

I needed a pair of shoes for a summer wedding. I needed something sassy, yet comfortable to punch up the summery yellow dress I was going to wear. I ordered these ones from Me Too in purple and they were fabulous! The color was very rich, the finish was beautiful. I was very impressed. There is plenty of padding inside, and the rubber sole was a plus on the dance floor! I was amazed at how comfortable they were. Sometimes peeptoe shoes will rub against my toes up on the top and give me blisters, but not this pair. I certainly recommend this style of shoes to everyone!

My shopping experience with Zappos has been only positive. Very quick delivery. The shoes are as described and fit well. A++. The Touch Ups Erika is prettier than pictured. Just a little wide in the heel for me. This is a common problem for me as I take an AAAA heel. I have heel pads that I insert into the shoe, and these shoes are perfect. Thank you.

I am a bridesmaid in my sister's wedding, and so I ordered these shoes (and another "back-up" pair that I liked) to wear. I loved the look of these shoes and they were even prettier in person! Truly lovely, until I put them on. They felt very awkward on, like I put the wrong shoe on the wrong foot, and overall just didn't fit. It wasn't the size but more like the actual shape of the shoe. I have a wider foot, wide and short unfortunately, so that might have been the problem. It worked out for me because the back-up pair, that had a higher heel than I wanted, ended up fitting perfect, being comfortable, and were beautiful as well. However, if these shoes had fit I would have gone with them hands down. They really are so pretty! I am going to recommend these to another bridesmaid who is still looking for shoes. My loss may be her gain!

At first I was leery of purchasing these shoes because theyre satin and as we all know, satin doesnt give and can sometimes be hard. That was not the case with these. The minute I put them on, I knew they were going to be comfortable. I wore them to a wedding, received numerous compliments, and danced all night.

I ordered these shoes to wear as a bridesmaid in my sisters wedding. Wow! Not only are they really pretty and very well made, but they were far more comfortable than I would have thought. Sure, the heel is high, but the inside of the shoe is nicely padded. The heel is a tiny bit loose when I walk, however, it is also padded very well so I wont get blisters on my heel. After adding a little insert as extra padding for the balls of my feet, these will fit like a glove. I almost didnt give these a try, but I am really glad I did.

Bought these after a long search for the perfect low wedding shoe (wanted my groom to look tall compared to me). I had them dyed to the right ivory shade and the rhinestone button held up well. I stood and danced in them for 8 hours, and though I was tired, the shoes weren't the problem! Very comfortable for a pointed-toe shoe.

They are NOT like walking on a cloud...
I was thrilled with the look of these shoes, and from the reviews I read before purchasing them, I was certain they would be perfect. When I received them, they were beautiful. They had nice padding in the heel and toe areas, but there was no padding for the ball of the foot when made it like walking barefoot on that part. I wore them to my son's wedding and outdoor, on-the-grass reception where the heels were promptly stained green because of the grass. Of course, that's not the shoe's fault. Anyway, I never developed any blisters, which is a good thing, but they were not as comfortable as expected.

Wow!!! These shoes are soooo stellar! I was skeptical to buy these simply because of the price, but now that I have worn them, they are worth every penny. Not only are they eye candy, they are very comfortable to wear. The hidden platform inside the sole balances out the stiletto heel very nicely so they are easy to walk in. The leather is soft and supple and the footbed is ergonomic enough to cradle the foot. The color is an awesome cross between gold and a slight silverish so they go with everything. I would highly recommend buying this style. Some of the other Alex Mcqueens have heels too high for my comfort, but this particular is just right for a sexy look and are comfortable to walk in.

Decent, but not for long periods of time -
These shoes are adorable, but the fit is somewhat odd. They run a bit narrow, and the angle pushes my feet too far down so that the back strap is WAY too long (comes under my heel at the tightest setting) and the stiff fabric in front starts to dig into my foot. It's somewhat comfortable for a while, but my feet were hurting by the end of the wedding I wore the shoes to. They could use some breaking in.

Beautiful shoe -
This shoe looks amazing on; the only problem is it slips off the back of my foot even though it is my size. I even put the petal inserts in the shoe. It then felt more snug but still pulled off the back of my heel as I walked. I am very disappointed I really wanted to wear this beautiful shoe on my wedding day.
