"I ordered these shoes in an 8W. I usually wear a 7.5W but I always go up half a size when the heel height is over 3.5 inches. I'm glad I did. The shoe fits snug just like a medium, although it is wide. These shoes are so beautiful in person but not so comfortable. However, I didn't buy these for comfort. I received compliments all day on my shoes. They definitely make a statement! If you buy these shoes, my advice would be to add 'anti-slip soles' for the bottom on slippery floors. For added comfort, buy 'ball of cushion insoles'. I love my attention grabbers.. they rock!!"
