Very cute, very Chanel with a much more manageable price. For the first time however, these shoes are almost too narrow for my narrow foot. Because they fit my smaller foot well, I opted to have them stretched a little and now they are fine, but you might want to order a wider width If you are a borderline narrow. I am always so happy to find a cute, stylish narrow shoe and Vaneli is a tried and true company for me, but these seem to run especially narrow for their narrow fit. Perhaps the M width is normal, I don't know. Purchased both the Black and the Pudding and Black.

These are absolutely the best feeling shoes I have had in many years. The sizing is accurate, the quality is excellent, and the shoe is attractive.

Love these shoes! I purchased them In green and can't get enough of the color. Also really great arch support for flats.

First off: Vanelis fascinate me as they make feet look smaller! This particular style is a rich dark navy which doesn't gap at the sides. They look sleek and elegant for a flat. Suitable for dress or casual. The toe box is a mite snug and might need breaking in.

Elegant and comfy! Been looking for a style like this. I'm a 7 but the 7.5 felt comfortable. I'm keeping it. Thanks, Zappos!

Really cute shoe. I ordered the 8 Narrow. It was too short and too tight. I will try another size.

Cute shoe! The 2 colors make it perfect for matching with work attire.
Ordered my normal size, toe box felt a bit cramped the first few times I wore it. It stretched out and now fits fine - no problems. No blisters, pretty comfy flat.
I'd order a half-size up for optimal toe wiggle room though. :)

I absolutely love your shoes. I like the easy return policy because it's hard to know which shoes run narrow. Getting to know brands takes some time. Thank you Zappos!

A lovely, good quality flat. I read the reviews that this shoe looks like Chanel. I agree. The footbed is a little strange, kind of sloped but it takes only a few hours to get used to it. Am taking these on vacation. Super comfy - order 1/2 size up!

These shoes are very "Chanel" like. They are incredibly comfortable and versatile. I bought two more pairs, one in black and another in vanilla/black combo. I now have my go to flats that transcend every occasion and wardrobe choice.

Finally found cute flats in a narrow width. I purchased them in both navy and black and I'm hoping they will be available in summer colors. Wish there was more of a selection in the narrow width and wish there were more stores selling them.

Great looking shoes that are very comfortable--great arch support. I have wide feet and these fit perfectly. These are perfect for casual wear with jeans or dressed up with a skirt.

Great shoe, comfortable right out of the box unlike most flats but sturdy. No breaking in period is nice. Very cute, although it felt a little wide for my taste when I first put it on. I am still keeping them because they are functional and stylish. Only thing is the heel is slippery but a non-slip pad can easily fix this.

Great looking shoe, comfortable right out of the box when I was wearing stockings. The heal is a little slippery on tile/hardwood floors but the rest of the bottom is rubber so you really aren't going anywhere!

I love these shoes! I have been looking for so long for a decent looking black flat that my foot fits in and offers a bit of support. I wasn't that sure about these in the looks department, but when they arrived I fell in love! Despite being wide and actually fitting my foot, they somehow manage to appear a regular width (have a narrowing effect in my foot) that makes them look quite classy. I wore these for two days of traveling and while it wasn't like wearing tennis shoes, it wasn't painful for me to walk the next day either (which in most of today's no supportive flats is actually a problem). I had ordered 4 pairs of wide black flats from Zappos and these won by a wide margin on both looks and comfort.

Love these flats - they go with everything. You can wear them casually with leggings, or to work with slacks. I actually have gotten more compliments on these shoes than any other shoe I own (and I own a lot!). A few people have asked if they were made by that designer brand with the quilted shoes and bags. They honestly look that rich. Love them!

Love this style. Have 2 in each color in wide width because they are so comfortable. Wish they came in more colors! I'd love to see them in solids leathers too - like red, luggage, black suede, etc. I'd buy every color! My daughter (26) and I both have bunions are are very limited in finding shoes that are comfortable. We both love this style!

Love these ballet flats! They are classy and go with everything. They are super comfortable and look great on. I was not sure of the fit so I got a half size larger. I could have stayed with the smaller size. Wear them anyways.

This shoe works so well for me that I have it in two colors, the black and the "pudding." I have a difficult foot, wide across the ball and need support as well. This shoe looks fantastic and holds up under walking or long stand-up work and events -- I just took a pair on a two week swing up and down both coasts for work, came home and bought the second pair.

Love them! Have very little choice in shoes as I need at least a AAA. I wanted the ballet type and these fit the bill. I just wish they had them in other colors in my size!

Finding shoes that fit properly is a problem for me. These shoes solved all my problems - toe box that is roomy enough and heel that is narrow enough. And the navy adds just a little more "lift" to some outfits than everyday black. Like these shoes very much.

I love this shoe. First I bought it in white for an organization requirement. It was so comfortable and stylish that when I saw it in gold I snatched it up. The quilting makes it look far more expensive and the fit is amazing! Love, love, love this shoe!

I love these shoes! They are adorable, comfortable and fit me perfectly, which can be hard at size 4.5. They are also well made and are very versatile. Did I say I love these shoes!
