Beautiful shoe! I wish I had taken them off a little sooner, though--they smooshed my toes pretty good, such that two were still numb after 48 hours. Still, the shoes look GREAT!

I love the look of this shoe and the heel height. My normal size slipped off and the half-size down cut across the instep. They are chic looking and I'm sorry I have to return them.

Overall a great shoe and very comfortable. Wore to a wedding with no issues. Color is more of a champagne than gold IMO. Had to go half size smaller - they seem to run a little large

I bought these for my wedding and wore them all day without any issue. They were very comfortable and I will definitely wear them again.

These are nice shoes. They are pretty and pretty comfortable except they do run big. I did not realize at first as the toe area fits but I found my heel slipping a lot. Luckily I had read other reviews and brought moleskin which worked well but would have been a problem. I am going to have to find a better solution for the future. The heel height is good and I could walk and dance all evening. There is no arch support for my high arches but that is not a problem - it is usual for dressy shoes.

I love these shoes and have them in many colors. The black was too small. Other colors have fit great and been so comfortable! I usually wear them without hose but I even tried this pair with sheer hose and that was too tight!

They are very very pretty. I wear an 81/2 wide in a dress shoe, and they fit almost perfect. Usually I choose a shoe with a strap around the heel because I have a narrow heel, but this shoe is snug enough there that I don't have to start with heel pads. I chose it to go with a gown for a wedding. The heel is higher than it appeared to me in the photo, but that just makes them a little sexy. Pretty comfy for the height of the heel, but I am going to have to get use to them before the event. Width is perfect, length was true. And they definitely don't look frumpy like many wide shoes. Giving them a 4 star instead of the 5 for the height of the heel and the angle it throws your foot at. To me that wasn't as comfortable, but if you are use to stilettos, you will think they are a 5.

Having tried both the Nina Forbes and Nina Elvira I think these shoes definitely run narrow. Although I have a wider foot, I usually don't need to order W sizes. However, for this shoe I definitely needed the W. It fit well and, for a high-heel, fancy party dress shoe, was quite comfortable.

I purchased these for a wedding and, while I haven't worn them enough to comment on longterm comfort, the three immediate reactions I had were: 1. Runs a little big. I ordered the 6.5 and 7 since I'm normally about 6.5 but can run somewhere in between, and the 6.5 fit just about perfectly - maybe even a little on the roomy 6.5 side. I'd be swimming in a 7. 2. Potentially rough around the edges. Consider tape or some breaking in around the toe and heel for optimal comfort. 3. Great heel height - it adds inches and lengthens the leg without feeling unnatural or uncomfortable. On the style front, I tend to think that this looks like a bridal shoe, but it's a very attractive one. I'm pleased to be wearing it in the bridal party, but don't know that I will get much use out of it beyond the wedding day. Navy satin seems to scream "bridesmaid!" One disclaimer: soles feel *very* slippery.

Beautiful shoe but their "wide" size in this particular shoe wasn't wide enough for me. Sadly, I had to return it.

Chose this pair from several I tried for my wedding. Out of the box they were the most comfortable. I must admit, I do not wear heels very often; however, I managed about 6 hours in these before they started to hurt. I did end up with two small blisters on the inside of each foot an inch down from my big toe. Hopefully they are broken in as I do plan to wear them again.

I bought these in red to wear at my wedding. I had chosen a cocktail-length white dress and wanted some fun shoes. I was very impressed when I opened the box, as these were even more beautiful than I had expected from the photos. I initially ordered in an 8, which kind of pinched my toes. I then ordered the 8.5 which was more comfortable -- although there were noticeable gaps in the heels, I wasn't walking out of them -- so I wore the 8.5 for my wedding. I would give 5 stars across the board if it hadn't been for the 8 feeling a bit too small and the 8.5 feeling a bit too large.

I really want to love this shoe because it is perfect with my mother of the groom dress. It ran a little big so I ordered it a half size down. I love the look, but it just isn't that comfortable. It cuts into my foot around the corners of the toe box, and around the peep toe. I really love the look so I'm wearing it, but I'll be bringing a back up pair of shoes to dance in later.

I typically love Nina shoes, though this particular cut felt almost a full half size too small and narrow. The shoe is well-constructed and had good support, and likely would have been a comfortable shoe I could wear at length, had it been the right size. I've chosen to return this shoe, however, as the "Gold Royal" color appears to be a rose gold (which I needed for a wedding) on Zappos, yet is a very yellow gold in reality.

The shoes are exactly as pictured. The heel height is the right balance between looking like you're making an effort and still being semi-comfortable after wearing them for a whole day. I've gotten lots of compliments on them.

I read some other reviews that said ordering a size up is a good idea. I'm a 7 and I ordered a 7.5. They were too big so returned them and ordered a 7.

I bought this in purple to go with my wedding dress. I love the little peep of color under my dress while I walk! Super cute! The shoe is surprisingly comfortable but do wear it a bit beforehand to break it in. The only thing is that the outsole of the shoe is made out of this smooth plastic material. If you're walking on a smooth surface, it can get a little slippery. I suggest buying a non-slip pad and adhere it to the shoe to prevent any slipping.

Pretty shoes - perfect for dressy occasion. However, even with padded insoles added, my feet were killing me an hour in. Granted, I was walking a lot, but I was happy to take them off. Maybe next time I wear them, they won't hurt as much.

This is a beautiful shoe, but runs small, and is too high of a heel for me. I wanted to rock this shoe, but it hurts my toes too much. Sadly, I'm returning it.

I loved the style of this shoe. The heel height looks good, and the peep toe style is cute. The lilac color is very pretty. It's bright but still subtle. My only problem is that they are uncomfortable. I wore them at my wedding and it was about 4 1/2 hours long. When I took these shoes off my feet were very sore. While wearing them I couldn't really feel too much discomfort, but it might have been that I wasn't thinking about it during the time.

Very pretty shoe. It fit well and was decently comfortable for a thin heel. I wore it around the house while vacuuming for an hour or two and my feet were only a normal amount tired. I returned the shoe because the fabric seemed too hard to care for well. I'm rough on shoes and trying to keep these clean and dry seemed unlikely. I'll continue my search for a cute heel in leather.

I love the style. The shoe is true to size, but it slips off my foot when I walk. I've noticed that with other pumps as well, not just from Zappos. Yet if you order a size smaller they are too tight and they still slip off. It isn't the most comfortable shoe, the peep toe rubs a little and not much cushion, but it looked awesome with the dress I wore to my daughter-in-law's bridal shower.

These shoes were purchased for a wedding and they were so comfortable! No blisters and I hardly had to break them in!

Love these! Ordered them for my wedding- they look perfect with my ivory dress. I love the little splash of color peeping out from beneath the dress! Color is gorgeous, very nice shoe. Peep toe is the right size (my toes actually REACH the peep!) and the shoe is very comfortable.
