I bought the polka dot version and have received a ton of compliments. They are very cute and fit well. The heel is slightly higher than I prefer, but the sacrifice is worth it for these cuties.

I am wearing these in a wedding but these were not the original shoes picked out. I have never worn wide width shoes but for some reason Nine West shoes are unusually narrow. Unfortunately, there aren't many style of Nine West offered in WW. While they fit, the are by no stretch of the imagination wide width.

Very cute shoe. A bit uncomfortable to be worn for a long period of time. I found not only the heel height to be uncomfortable, but the toe box was significantly smaller than I anticipated for a rounded toe shoe.

I really like this shoe. I showed up to a party, and another girl had the same one only in black. The color isn't what I thought it was going to look like but still a good color. I wear size 11, and they are slightly big but comfortable. I wore them all day at work and was still able to wear them by the end of the day which is huge for me. Again, the only real neg. was the color didn't match (I wanna say they are slightly darker than the picture).

I got the red/white polka dot pair to go with a retro dress I'd purchased. While the shoes are cute, they were a little too kitschy for the outfit. The heel height and fit were nice though.

Very comfortable shoe, very true to size and just the right height. The only negative thing is that they scuff easily.

The shoes are so sexy on, unfortunately I found that my left foot wanted to try to escape out the top since the sides of the shoe are more shallow than I would have liked. I just wish my left foot wasn't a tad too big for these shoes. Another size wouldn't work since they only run up to size 11. They are gorgeous on just couldn't walk in them because of the sides! The heel height is perfect. So sad about these not working for me.

I love this shoe! I had Steve Madden ones before these, and they ripped down the side. These are made great, fit great, and look great. I actually like them better than my other ones! And the color is perfect!

I love these shoes. They don't have a lot of arch support, but they're a great height and look good with everything! I've worn them with jeans, dresses, and nice slacks, and they always look fabulous.

This is an excellent shoe! It's very comfortable. I bought it for a wedding but wore it all day in Vegas.

I eyeballed these heels at every store I saw them in for months until I finally broke down and got them. They're really are gorgeous: perfect heel height, great silhouette, and a really nice shade of nude. Unfortunately, looks aren't everything and while these are not horrendously uncomfortable, and I am able to wear them during a 10 hour workday at the office, the synthetic material is pretty stiff and doesn't like to bend all that well. The left one rubs just a little and is slightly snug. The right shoe fits just like a 9.5 should on me- roomy without being too loose (my left foot is slightly wider than my right, so I always wear a 9.5 in heels instead of the 9 that I wear in everything else). If you don't have the same issue then I think these would be a great addition to anyone's shoe collection! Fabulous with jeans and perfect with dresses, skirts and trousers! I've only worn them once out of the house, so I can't testify as to how they hold up yet. I'm hoping the left loosens up just a little, so I can wear them more often. Also, as always Zappos rocks, and I almost never buy shoes anywhere else.

A cute shoe that seemed comfortable. I ordered several pair to see which one I liked best and ended up sending this one back. Not a huge fan of the patent shine.

I bought a pair of these pumps in the black leather as a basic pair of shoes for work. They look great when I'm wearing them, but they're very narrow, and when you're putting them on the first few times, you really have to struggle to get your foot in the shoe. I fixed this by wearing tights with them the first few times I wore them. They're mostly comfortable, but if you have to walk around a good bit, they're not the best shoes for that. On the other hand, this is a great price for a basic pump.

The gray suede are a nice change from the black. Usually I wear a half size smaller in Nine West shoes, but I ordered my usual size this time. I am glad I did, because they are actually a little smaller than expected. I wear these to work and they are perfect for a professional setting... conservative, but not too boring.

Zappos provided great service. I received my shoes the next day after I ordered them! I can't complain, I will be shopping with them again.

Nine West shoes seem to fit my foot well. I'm a size 7, on the narrow side and these were no exception. For a basic office pump, they are great. I am not on my feet very often, though, and I'm not sure they would be comfortable for the entire day if I were. Unlike a more expensive shoe, these don't really offer much support. For the price and the look, I am very happy.

I have two pairs now - black and natural leather; and it seems like the black ones are slightly wider in width. It's more flexible than the natural leather pair. I've measured myself to be an 8.5 in shoes (using charts and stuff), but I got these in 8 and they fit fine, if a little snug in the width. I'm not sure if I should have ordered a 8.5 instead. Don't want them flopping off my heels when I walk. Heel height didn't kill me, but left the balls of my foot sore after a whole working day. Soles could do with some padding in them. Still, a great looking pump without frills.

I bought these to wear with my longer pants for work. They are cute but cut off circulation to my toes. Not so bad after breaking them in a bit. Great shoe to wear for a little bit, but not to stand in all day.

A really cute and elegant shoe. I love the rounded toe. The toe area is just a little snug, but I think that will get better with each wearing. I'm glad I got them!

It's hard for me to find really nice heels because I have a wide foot but this shoe fits perfectly. I'm really excited to wear this for my event on the weekend.

Cute and comfortable. I get complements on them all the time. They\'re a creamy tan color, and look amazing with bright colored dresses.

Very disappointed. I ordered a pair of this same style last year and they fit perfect! I wanted more in other colors and they are too small! Both named Ambitious but it got smaller in this year's production.

So disappointed that I had to send these back. They are very stylish and the taupe color is exactly what I had in mind. However, I have wide feet and could barely fit all of my toes into these shoes. My little toes were all crunched up. I asked to be notified if Zappos gets a wide width version of these in stock. Then maybe I'll feel like Cinderella instead of her ugly stepsister! Until then, the quest for the perfect nude pump continues!

This shoe is very cute in person. However, I wore these to two weddings (as a bridesmaid) and had to add much padding in each of them to be able to wear them through all the events. I definitely had them off by the reception dance time, which I usually don't do, but I did not think they were as comfortable as others raved about in their reviews. One caveat: I almost never wear high heels--so perhaps these are manageable for practiced high heel wearers.

Very pretty and flattering, but had to return. Having a foot that is a bit triangular in shape (wide at the ball of the foot and narrow at the heel) I originally ordered an 8W after reading other reviews -- that was wide enough but nearly 2 sizes too long. Returned for a 7 1/2 W size, but that is too long and also too narrow and so had to return it too. Sigh. Zappos service rocks tho, and ordered 3 other pair of shoes that do fit.
