Love these shoes. Buying these to replace another identical pair. I wear these with black dress slacks and jacket for business and nicer occasions. They can be dressed up or down with jeans. They aren’t super high but dressy enough for suits yet still much for comfortable than higher heels. They aren’t the highest quality if you really “wear” your shoes. The toes tend to get marks on the faux leather if you hit them or drag them. I have found them perfect for what I need, thus these are an exact replacement of a pair I’ve had for a while. Also love the elastic straps that flex well over wider feet.

I didn't expect to like these as much as I do, and I'm definitely keeping them. I also purchased the Comfortiva Faye, based on the boatload of positive reviews. Bought both shoes in navy. The ornamentation on the Bella is very subtle, so if you want the jeweled look, these aren't it. It was a hard decision! The Bellas are $10 less than the Comfortivas. The final verdict is to keep the Bellas in navy and get Comfortivas in brown and black.

Nice to have a wide shoe size that doesn’t look like an orthopedic shoe. The width is comfortable. Nicely fashionable and comfortable too

Nice to find a pair of shoes in a wide size that actually doesn't look like an orthopedic show. I appreciate the reviews I read before ordering. As they stated this runs true to size and maybe a bit bigger. Genetics left me with wide feet and I usually have to order a full size up and use heel guards to get the right fit. These are Perfect!

I've never had, but wanted, pewter color shoes and these are perfect! The fit is perfect and I can't wait for warmer weather to wear them. Narrow widths are so hard to find I no longer try....I just browse Zappos to find what I need. The free shipping and returns are just a bonus!

I typically wear a 9.5-10 depending on the shoe style. I originally ordered a 10 but had to size down to a 9.5 because they were too roomie and the elastic straps didn't hold my foot in the shoe. When the 9.5 arrived, they were a perfect fit. The shoe is comfortable and the heel height is perfect. I bought the Pewter, I love this color! It's subtle yet dressy and I can wear it with gray, black or navy. I'm thinking about ordering the black as well.

The fit & size was perfect! I LOVE these Shoes- I had a day-long Convention to attend & was on my feet for long periods of time throughout the day, & they were very comfortable, even when my feet swelled from the hot weather!!! I would recommend these shoes- & I got many compliments on them, as well!

Loved this shoe, but heel too narrow for me now. Disappointed but found another pair here at Zappos that will work better for me; over 75 so need better support. Glamour is what glamour does, and now it's just as important to have good support and there are shoes that fill that bill and still look glamours. :)

Ordered an 8D. The shoes were very loose and long for my foot. I don't think these are a true wide, maybe a C. Very cute and comfortable and could have been a contender if they had fit.

I really like these shoes. They stretch and move with your foot, so they're very comfortable. The look is casually professional -- perfect for the office in summer! If you have a narrow heel, they'll probably slip a little in back. (I used a foam heel gripper to solve that problem.)

Bella Vita is one of the few brands that make a narrow shoe. I was trying to replace my BV Ravenna sandals that I bought a few years back that are supremely comfortable. I like the Paula II for style and they aren't too bad on the comfort end. I was able to walk all day and not suffer, so that's a good thing. The narrow is a little wide on my foot, but the straps are high and the heel fits well, so a little width in the foot area is not bad. I get lots of complements on them, and they do not look cheap despite their reasonable price point.
I'd also recommend:
Van Eli, Stuart Weitzman, Sesto Meucci

Very comfy sandal right out of the box. The stretchy straps make it easy to slip on and off. I wore them all day, standing and walking for most of the time and never got a single blister!

Love, love, love this sandal. Wore then the very next day after receiving and I was working a trade show most of the day and walking alot - normally I would never wear brand new shoes on a day like that but they felt so good when I first put them on, I gave it a try and never regretted it for a moment. I went back to order another pair in a different color and out of stock - so hoping they become available.

No way to tighten the straps at the top of the shoe, so it felt more like a slip on

Comfortable and fit well (9.5W navy blue), but once I saw them on I didn't like having "striped"feet. However, Bella-Vita is a brand that now has my attention for fit and quality.
I'd also recommend:
Clarks, Naturalizer, Miz Moos

I have had these shoes for several years, and I have worn them like crazy. They are very comfortable, like slippers. The stretchy straps make them easy to slip right on, but then they stay secure and don't slip.

I love these sandals! I got them in navy last year and was happy to see them again. They are very comfortable and look great on.
