"I got these so they would work with outfits that could accomodate brown or black shoes. These shoes are so hawt. They looked great on me. I am 5'9, tan and have a slender build. My ankles and legs are slim and they fit nicely and were very flattering. My girlfriends at work loved them too : ) You do have to break them in and they are not the most comfortable at day 1 but that's pretty standard with most heels. I bought them because the price was right. Ive worn them a couple of times now and each time loved how i looked in them. Thanks DSW!"
