"I looked all around town for the perfect shoes for a wedding I was attending and I found these beauties in the sale rack. I was a little desperate, so I purchased the 7.5 knowing full well I wear a 7. It didn't matter, because the shoes stayed on all night. The platform gives the illusion of extra height without the knee pain. These shoes are definitely for a "sitting and standing" sort of night, especially for the over 30 crowd. :) Otherwise, they were pretty comfortable. These shoes are elegant, a versatile color and I love the red bottoms! I am very happy with my heels."
