Customer Reviews Dolce Vita Bel

The boots fit great and I disagree that you should size up, I think they were perfect in a size 8 which is my regular size. I am disappointed in the quality of them, I live in NYC and the first time I wore them outside, the pattern on the point of the toe came off. It’s not super noticeable but it was annoying since it happened with the first 30 mins. Otherwise super cute and comfy.

So tight across ball of foot! I ordered up a size , I couldn’t even get on my foot. Look beautiful- I’m not even sure if another size up would fit ball of my foot and I do not have wide feet.

Loved these boots. I did size up a half of size and glad I did.

I can’t say enough good about these boots. They are a true red. The style is so on trend. The pointy toe and block heel make them versatile. The heel is manageable for all day wear. I was surprised at the comfort from the padding in the foot. I am on my feet most of the day and am quite comfortable in these boots. I would definitely purchase in another color. Would love them in a leopard print.

Beautiful and comfortable shoe. Color is a perfect caramel that goes with everything. However, I wore for 7 hours in the office only (no outside wear) and at the end of the day, the sole of the heel came off! So disappointed. Returning. Needs more durability for the price point.

I so wanted to love these. First off, they felt small in the toe box - a little too short and a little too squeezed. The rest of my foot felt fine. And the snakeskin print had multiple areas that were whiter and blurrier on the left boot only. The right boot had a crisp clean print. (You can see what I mean about the whiter areas in the product photo above, but mine was WAY more than that.) If it weren't for the unbalanced look to this pair, I might try in a larger size, but I'll now look at other brands for a nice snakeprint bootie instead.

If you are getting the wide shoes, go down half a size.

Very cute and nicely made. I followed the previous reviewer's suggestion and got a 1/2 size bigger and they fit perfectly. Can't wait to take them on my trip to Italy for walking.

These are beautiful boots and look exactly as pictured. I'm only returning them because I decided I want a lower heel.

I always wear an 11W in boots. The suede boot was very pretty and stylish but very narrow. It was not even a medium width. I was so disappointed.

Perfect match and fit. I love these boots

So gorgeous! The leather is so soft and the subtle snakeskin detailing on the heel is fabulous.

Very comfortable and walkable heel height, but stylish enough to wear with skirts or jeans. I have them in 2 colors and love both!

These boots are great! fit me perfectly right out of the box. I like the heel height and they are quit stylish. I've received many compliments I will wear them often

These boots are super comfortable and very chic! I would highly recommend them for fall.

The leather is buttery soft. The shoes are hard to wear all day out. They are super pointy and narrow, so they don't really work for wide feet. I was comfortable at the beginning of the day, but by the end of the day, my toes were squished. I ordered a size up from my usual size and that didn't seem to help.

That the croc pattern continues onto the heal of this boot makes them very cute. The boots are very pointy, but they aren't uncomfortable; you have to like a very pointy style, though. I wanted to wear these boots with jeans. The problem is that the shaft height doesn't work with skinny jeans (I had to roll the jeans up and that didn't look very good) and the boots didn't look good sticking out of slim jeans. So what do I wear them with? If you are envisionign wearing them with something short, that might work, but I had to return them. Cute in and of themselves, reasonably comfortable, but what do they look good with?

I need between a 10 and 11 Wide (C). These in the 10W were comfortable and cute and... almost keepers. Love the simple design. Good quality supple leather with some gentle give. Sleek pointed toe works pants suits and jeans. Heel is high enough to be fashionable but wide enough to be practical. However: The "snakeskin" feature on the heel rubbed the hem of my pants with every step. Audibly. It seems to me the bottom "flap" of each of those "scales" will catch and curl over time. I'm picky about the details and I couldn't keep them for that reason. Very comfortable and cute though - my gripe may not be an issue for everyone and if you need a wide these are flattering and may be worth a try.

There is a nice cushion to the footbed, but my toes felt squeezed, so I will be sending these back.

Really cute booties, and they fit my bunions and wide feet. My only bone to pick is that the foot bed isn't the most comfortable and there isn't any arch support. I'll probably end up getting some inserts. Can't wait to wear these!

On the generous side of sizing (true, but not snug which is good for a boot when you'll need to accommodate a sock). But the leather(?) felt plasticky. Stiff and shiny and cheap looking in person (IMO).

I think the size is fine but the style made them too tight across the ball of my foot (if that's what you call that area). I think they are rather pointed and perhaps get narrow too quickly as the approach the point. I think that is the widest part of my foot anyway, but I could tell that, although they fit, there was already discomfort on the sides near the ball of my foot. After wearing these for some time I can only imagine the ache I'd have due to the heel pressing the weight into that area. My daughter, who is a 1/2 size smaller and with a very high arch, loved the boots and said they fit her well. We have very different feet and she can often have issues with pull on shoes/boots due to her arch. These worked great for her, but I'm sending them back because I've already "donated" more than one pair that didn't work for me to her :)

The width of the Medium is so narrow. I had to buy a shoe stretcher to open up the width because these shoes hurt to wear.

As another reviewer wrote, the leather on the tip of the shoes came off the first time I wore them. It is very noticeable ony black boots and I have not worn them this entire season for this reason. I would avoid unless you don't need to walk around in them. I'll look into whether I can return and/or get a refund. Too expensive for wearing only once. ?
