Customer Reviews J. Renee Bambalina

Having had two foot surgeries, my days of high heels have passed. I needed a dress pump with a low heel to go with a royal blue dress for an upcoming wedding. I didn’t want black or anything with open toe, straps, or bling. This shoe looked perfect. It’s not old lady-ish. Ordered it in 7.5 and 8. I’m usually a 7.5 medium width. Interesting, when I placed the order Zappo came back with a message telling me that based on previous ordering history they suggested the 8 would probably be my size. They were right! The 7.5 was too tight. The shoe is lovelier than it looks online. It’s metallic without too much bling and will go with either silver or gold jewelry. The inside has some padding and enough arch support. I wouldn’t want to walk miles in them but they’re comfortable for an evening on my feet and dancing.

Narrow fit, but nice shoe

Beautiful shoe, very well made. I can't review the comfort until I get the right size. It runs small... I normally wear an 8M, I needed to go up to an 8.5W. I hope it fits when it comes!

I love this classic shoe yet was disappointed I that the fit was too narrow. I wear a size 7.5 B but I am exchanging th this pair for a 7.5C . Hopefully this will work because the shoe is great!

too big

Unlike most flats or shoes of this type, the vamp is actually cut high enough NOT to cut across my bunions--this is a rare find! And the metallic is nice--not blindingly shiny. The low stacked heel has a nice little metal detail that adds to the overall style, and the height of the heel felt very stable. Unfortunately, in the end they're going back as they're still not supportive enough. I have arthritis and painful feet, and most dressy shoes just don't lend enough support. It's definitely more comfortable and thoughtfully styled than most shoes of this type.

9.5 was not true to size (long) and I also needed a wider shoe. Lovely shoe though and I really needed a pair of white shoes!

They fit fairly well because I ordered a half-size larger than my usual size. The insole is soft but not cushiony, no arch support. They are not comfortable. They feel tight and stiff. The heal makes a plastic clicking sound when you walk. I will keep them because they look good with an outfit I am wearing to a wedding.

What a beautiful shoe. Very dressy but not at all glittery. My usual size is 7WW or 71/2WW. This was not quite wide enough for me.

This shoe was too short for my shorter foot.

Beautiful shoes! I have a narrow heel though and they flopped when I walked, so I was sorry to have to return.

These shoes are gorgeous, classy and well-mad. Sadly, they just aren't quite wide enough for my feet. I have bunions, which makes shoe fitting challenging anyway. I think they would probably fit anyone else with a wide foot, but if you have bunions they might not. I really wish I didn't have to return them!

Sloppy in the heel.

I love these shoes. I ordered a half size up, and was happy with the fit, and the cute style. The heel is just enough, not too high (2" and up hurts my knees and feet), and they don't cut into the sides of my feet. However, I am returning them because as cute as they are, I know I'm not going to wear them more than once a year, which seems silly. They are *very* sparkly, which overwhelms almost anything I would wear them with.

Many reviewers mentioned that these ran large, so I ordered one size up. They were too large and I had to return them. I may try again, however, because they are lovely. I think the quality looks great.

This is a seriously classy looking shoe. I ordered an 8, but I’m returning it for to get an 8.5 wide in black and blue. I’ll let you know how they fit.

When I first put these shoes on, I wasn't sure about the fit. I bought a narrow, and the toe box seemed a tad TOO narrow. But I needed them for an upcoming event so I wore them, with tights, and found them to be more than fairly comfortable. I wouldn't want to walk in them for hours, but for this social event (lots of standing around), they were comfortable. The shoe itself has a nice look, not too dressy but better than casual. Looks great with tights and the heel adds to the comfort as it is not too high and is wide enough to be sturdy without looking dowdy.

So pretty! So narrow. I'm exchanging for the next size up.

Cute shoes, however the reviews are true...these run really small. I ordered a 1/2 size up and they were still too short.

A beautiful shoe. The 8 was too short and the 8.5 was too long. I had to send both back.

These are beautiful shoes but the wide was a little low in the toe box maki g my big toe hit the top of the shoe. Maybe if they were a little wider it would have worked. I already ordered 1/2 size up per other reviews and that was needed but still not enough. Sadly will return but loved style.

As others have mentioned, these run small. Order a half size up. WIdest width was best for me as I have rheumatoid arthritis and don’t want my toes crowded. Feels very good. I really like the fit.

I was not able to keep them on my feet based on my foot structure. Very cute shoe though. Just not cute on me. :(

These are beautiful, but they run a half size small as was indicated by other reviews. When i walked in them, the stiching in the sole under my foot hurt a bit. If they fixed that this shoe would be much better. Had to return

This is an attractive and comfortable shoe. The detailing at the top edge of the shoe is feminine in a subdued way. The patterned surface and the gold trim on the heel make the shoe look quite elegant. However, I am returning them because the wide was not wide. I have bought several pair of wide shoes to accommodate my new orthotics, and they work fine. But this shoe fit perfectly in a wide without the orthotic, and I knew I would never get it in. So, darn it, I have to send them back.
