"I am writing a review because reviews are helpful to me. I am always looking for shoes that are cute and comfortable but they are rare. (Maybe the manufacturers will listen to this request from women and they'll make much more money and women will be much happier.) As for these shoes, I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 and bought an 8 and they are perfect. My feet are on the wide side of medium. The mediums are good. I need ankle straps so the shoes don't slip when I walk. But when you wear with pants, they look just like pumps without the strap. I like the nude because your legs look longer. I wish they came in gray."
