Customer Reviews Bella Vita Paula II

These shoes are very attractive on and fit well. I do have to wear bandages at the Achilles heel so that I don’t get blisters, as the edges are sharp. The quality could be better. But they were too cute to return!

Beautiful shoe, just ran too wide for my narrow foot.

Loved it, but runs large!

I decided to buy these in both M and W widths because of some reviews I read. I opted to keep the W width and they are comfortable. Great buy for the price.

Love this shoe but it felt very loose and appeared to be long on my foot. ordered smaller size.

They are very cute but too wide for narrows. Ankles slip, straps are too loose and the soles of the shoes were slippery on hard surfaces.

The shoe is very comfortable, especially for a wedge heel of this height. I liked it so much I bought it in 3 colors. Beware: the heel plate wears through almost immediately, requiring repair. If you are willing to replace the heel plate with a more sturdy material, these are a good addition to the wardrobe for wearing with pants or skirts. They were true to size for my 8.5 WW foot. These are comfortable enough I don’t need my orthotic.

Wow! These are so spunky! They have just enough heel to wear to the office with skirts. They are easy to slip on and very comfortable. I bought these in the pewter color as a neutral to wear with everything.

The top of the show certainly wide enough but the footbed is exactly the same width as a medium shoe (my daughter has the same shoe), so you will love this pretty shoe if you don't mind you foot hanging over the bottom. If you have a normal arch you are probably fine. I have flat feet so I can't wear it.

the shoe was very cute but once again too wide. I wear a 9 1/2 N and am really having a problem lately with fit. Come on shoe companies, make narrow shoe narrow! They are going back.

My first pair seemed so long, that I have returned for another pair, half size smaller and a wide width

Really cute shoe ordered by other people writing about shoe. Biggest problem is got a narrow it is not narrow in the heel, foot slips toward front of shoe making your toes hangout

Still on the fence about keeping these shoes. Not narrow enough to keep foot from slipping to front of shoe then my toes fall off edge of sandal.....so tired of not finding properly fitted shoes and sandals....

So far, I absolutely love these. They were comfortable when I put them on in the morning, but more importantly, they were still comfortable after I had been wearing them all day. Because of the elastic strap design, they hug my feet beautifully. I have narrow feet, but with a bit of a bunion on my right toe, and they adapted perfectly. I am a little dubious about how well they will last, since I'm concerned that the elastic will stretch out after time. Oh, and they look so elegant!

Very cute sandal, definitely order a size smaller. I wear a 12N, very wide, all of the straps were very loose. I wish they came in a slim.

The straps are stretchy!!!! Wow this shoe is a wonder! I had always wanted a shoe with this type of "roman" look but most make my chunky feet look like a salami-- not this one! It's comfy from the get go! The stretchy straps don't bite into my skin- was able to walk and not get blisters on the first wear-- that's a big win for me-- And has a nice sexy look to it- yes: a keeper!! ð???

great looking shoe! the fit was right. I have a wide foot and and the comfort with the straps was great. the height of the straps at the ankle was a little uncomfortable when bent, like when you're driving. otherwise, it's a great shoe.

Ordered 9.5W. Way too long. Ordered 9WW. Still way too long. Love these shoes, so I'm going to try an 8.5W and an 8.5WW and see if either of them fit. But this is odd sizing. I usually wear a 10W.

So cute but very loose straps on the wide version of the shoe. And it was longer than I was expecting. I normally wear a 7.5 wide and that is what I ordered.

These are beautiful shoes but they are too and not as comfortable as they should be. The pewter color is really pretty and neutral; it is just too dark to be a nude color on caucasian skin. I really wish they made them in a nude color because the bone white version looks kind of dated. The styling is great and they should be super comfortable. Except they are not. There is very little padding in the footbed, and no arch support at all. Most importantly, the heel is rigid, not a rubbery plastic as it looks like in the photos (Zappos, please include heel material in your descriptions!). So even though it the heel is a nice height (low enough to be comfortable, but high enough to work as a dress sandal), the lack of shock absorption makes this shoe impossible to wear for long. This shoe runs half to a whole size too large, and much too wide. If you are normally an 8½B, I would order at least a half size down and/or the narrow width.

Cute shoe, seemed wide on my feet without stable support the shoe will only loosen. Must return.

Wore these right out of the box; no break-in time required. These can be casual or a little dressy. Heel height is perfect; just enough. I'm a 9 but they were too big. Sent them back (thanks to Zappos' great return policy!) and got an 8.5. Fits great!

This shoe has great style to wear with nearly anything. It has just the right amount of coverage to wear in an office too. It's true to size, straps that hug but don't pinch, good cushion and arch support.

I love the shoe but as posted by someone else the shoe is about 1/2 inch longer for a 6.5 than I expected. I am returning and trying the 6.0.

These run, as others have suggested, a bit long, but they are comfortable. However, the description is not accurate. It states: "synthetic upper", but, in fact the straps are elastic fabric & should be so described. I worry about keeping them clean, but will keep them, as it's hard to get bone color shoes.
