Very cute & comfy shoe
" They were a little snug when I first put them on but they stretched out within the first 30 minutes of wearing them. I've been wearing flats exclusively for a long time due to problems with my back so I was a little worried about the wedge. I have to say these are some of the most comfortable shoes I own. The foot bed is padded, almost like a pillowtop, and after wearing them all day I had no back, foot or knee pain! They're really cute and will go great with a number of my Fall & Winter outfits. Highly recommended :)

Takes wide calf to a whole other level
" I ordered these online as my local DSWs don't tend to carry many wide calf styles. I have a pair of wide calf Coconuts boots I bought a few years back and still love them so I thought it best to go with the same brand again. After trying these on I knew they were getting returned. The zipper looks cool but feels very cheap and tends to stick. Most disappointingly, the calf of the boots are HUGE! I have always worn wide calf boots, especially if they are a pair I want to wear over jeans, but I was absolutely swimming in these. I don't know if it's because of the dip in the back or what but there is way too much room in the shaft for these to look right. This is especially weird because the foot part of the boot feels a little tighter than a normal boot in this size. Major bummer.

This bag holds a lot!

" I ordered this bag in the hunter green but the actual color is more vibrant -- closer to a kelly or bottle green. The leather is textured which I really like as I think it will mask little scrapes and scuffs better than smooth leather and I love the purple liner fabric. This bag has a much smaller visual footprint than the bag I was carrying before so I thought it would hold a lot less. Boy was I wrong! The bag is very deep and the abundance of pockets offer a perfect array of spaces to stash all the things that would always find their way to the often unreachable bottom of my old bag. The only thing I would caution about is there were no pulls on either of the internal zipper pockets. It's not a huge deal for me as I always keep those open (if they had been missing from the external pocket I would have had issues) but it is something to be watchful for if you buy one for yourself. Overall, I really love this bag and am very pleased with the purchase.

Awesome shoe
" These are adorable shoes! I received them today and can hardly wait until Spring so I can wear them. The color is lovely and the bird pattern makes them fun without looking childish. The heel of the shoe looks a little cheap upon very close inspection but from a normal viewing distance they're fine. I only tried them on for a few minutes but them seem quite comfortable. Very happy with the purchase!

Great inexpensive bootie
" I haven't worn anything other than flat shoes and boots for several years after a back injury made me end my love affair with heeled pumps. I was looking for a plain black bootie to wear to work and liked the look of these but I was concerned about the comfort level. I am happy to say that I've been wearing them for the last two days and have had no pain in my feet or back. They run very true to size and look good with pants or a dress (wearing them with black tights since they cutoff right at the ankle). The only thing I'm not 100% in love with is the material (not leather) but the fabric looks like it will wear pretty well, so overall I'm very pleased.

Great look. Great feel. Great bag.
" I was very pleased with the bag when it arrived. It is on the larger side but not so big that it becomes difficult to carry. I like the feel of the bag and the stud details add just the right amount of bling without being overbearing. I love the handles but appreciate that it also has a shoulder strap. The zippered exterior & interior pockets could have been a bit bigger (esp. considering the large size of the bag) but they don't take away too much from the overall function. All in all, a great bag that will get a lot of use.

Great boots!
" I received these in the mail today and they fit like a dream. The shafts are very high (come to my knee and I'm 5'9") and also look great with the top folded down to expose more of the fur lining. Since they lace up, you can make them as tight or loose as you want. They seem very warm and cushy... I can't wait for the snowy season to start. :)

Perfect Size & Great Bag
" This bag is just the right size for the weekend... Big enough for my wallet (which is pretty long) and lots of pockets for keys, cell phone, etc. The leather is really soft and the color (I got the blue/green) totally pops. The chain is a little heavier than I was expecting but not so much as to be uncomfortable. I'm going to get a lot of use out of this one!

Awesome Bag
" I usually carry a shoulder bag so it took me a day to get used to having the satchel on my arm, but now I really like it. The construction is impeccable, with well placed pockets inside and out. It holds a lot more than I thought it would without being bulky. Overall, a winner!

My new weekend shoe
" I loved these from the moment I slipped them on. Super cute and quite comfy. Though they are a little narrower than most of my other flats, they do not rub or pinch. They look great on... the perfect summer flat!

Great spunky flat
" The flats are perfect right out of the box... no breaking in period needed. The bright colors and fun pattern can punch up even the drabest of outfits. I've received several compliments on them from co-workers and even random people on the street. A+ shoe!

Is it possible to fall in love with a boot?
" The answer is yes if you're talking about the Coconuts Becky boot! I have a very difficult time finding boots that I can even zip up all the way but these wide calf ones are perfect... the shaft is wide enough to accommodate a legging or thick tights with a little room to move but no so much that there's a noticeable gap. The leather is beautiful and the boots feel well made. I've had them on all day and they're quite comfortable... no breaking in required. All around my ideal Fall & Winter boot!
