" I am currently in the middle of a black suede obsession and this bag is just what I wanted!
Love the quality of the suede...love the size of the bag - it's on the larger size and holds more stuff than I need...love the versatility - can be carried as a satchel or with shoulder strap, can be dressed up or dressed down...absolutely perfect! "

red suede...delicious!
" Bought the red suede version of these shoes on clearance and am so happy I did. Wore them to work and received so many compliments! They are very comfortable and the heel is just the right size. It is also thee perfect shade of red - it matches my sweaters and handbags! (and you know how hard it is to match reds).

Love it!
" This wallet surpassed my expectations - it has more than enough slots for (credit or medical) cards, and a few areas to hold business cards and such! I even like the section that holds change and I've never been one for carrying change - usually it makes the wallet too bulky - but not this one!
The leather is soft and a nice quality - I have the red one - and it really can double as a clutch as suggested in the description.
I have never had a wallet I loved more; I am thinking of buying wallets for my 5 aunts and both grandmothers for Christmas!

A must have for your collection!
" I purchased this clutch in red about 4 months ago - it is a beautiful shade of red and literally called my name - I was compelled to buy it! I received quite a few compliments when I wore it to work and an also the evening I wore it out with my boyfiend. A month ago I went back to the store and was so surprised that they had a black one, so....of course I had to get it, too!
I only have one issue - the clutches I purchased in store were the same exact as these online, but I paid slightly more in the store! :( If I were you I would buy the clutch ONLINE - with the free (overnight - for us premier status customers) shipping...you will make out better!

Nothing special about this shoe...
" In my opinion, these did not look very attractive on!
They gaped around my ankle - I know some gaping is expected to allow one to walk comfortably - but this was more than necessary. And, where the shoe criss-crossed (front part of foot) was a little loose, too, they would not be suitable to wear with a skirt/dress. With pants/jeans - you don't see the ankle or front foot detail and thus they look very 'average'. Had to send them back.
If you are considering purchasing these shoes, I would suggest that you try them on in the store first - just to be sure that the cut of the shoe works for your foot. "

pleasant surprise...
" Got these online in a size "too big" just to be safe...they are slightly wider than I need them to be, but when I went to the store to try on my "usual" size the straps across the front were too tight (so I was extremely pleased I have the other to fall back on)! Got a few compliments when I wore them...they looked adorable with a work dress I wore and they were ultra comfortable.
Perhaps the width would have been "perfect" if I had not had to move to a larger size, my foot slid thru the front opening a little too much for my liking. I may take them to a shoe repair shop to have the straps pulled a little tighter or may try a shoe insert first to see if that helps.
Overall - they are more attractive on than I imagined when I ordered them and can be worn with a work outfit or with a cute pair of jeans and shirt/tank - worth the purchase either way! "

these shoes didn't do it for me...
" These shoes ran narrow and a little short (and I have a rather narrow foot), also the multiple straps across the front applied too much pressure to the front of my foot - they just weren't comfortable at all! I made an opinion of this shoe after about 4 minutes of "wearing" them. They were returned soon after.

adorable shoe
" these are adorable, it was really love at first sight. The front of the shoe is cut really narrow and is an almond shape, so my big toe hangs off to the side some. All of my other toes fit accordingly, but I feel uncomfortable keeping them under the circumstances. They are way to cute to return and I looked to see if I could find a larger size on other sites, none of them had the size I need and all of them priced the shoe higher. My BFF or my niece will likely be getting these shoes - I only wish the front was rounded (instead of almond) or that the shoe came in an 11. I usually fit a 10 with no problem.

He really likes these!
" Ordered the natural colored mocs for my better half. He really likes them - wore them the following night when we went to a show. He found them to be extremely comfortable and it appears that they would be a complement to almost any outfit - can be paired with jeans for a night on the town or casual business attire for work!

My better half loves these sneakers!
" He plays basketball and needed new sneakers...these were 1 of only 4 sneakers they had in his size on the site. When they arrived he liked them so much that he said he not only wanted them for playing basketball - he wanted a pair to wear them off the court! They didn't have anymore in his size on DSW.com, but I found another pair for him regardless. He says they are very comfortable and apparently he found them visually appealing enough to wear with his street clothes!

opened the box....
" ...and was extremely excited at the look of the shoe! Just as mentioned in a previous review the ankle strap is larger than my ankle, but it lies nicely against the front of my foot so I can't complain - I don't think it's supposed to fit snuggly around the ankle anyway. I have a narrow foot, so the fit in the toe area is not a problem for me either. But I do have a problem with how the back of the shoe fits, the zipped part of the shoe does not curve to fit the heel of a foot - it's almost straight up/down. Not sure this would be as much an issue if the shoe was leather. When I walk in the shoes it seems that my heel moves up/down too much. I put a heel insert in while trying out options in my shoe closet and that seemed to do the trick. But the shoe just doesn't seem that comfortable with or without the heel insert. I haven't decided whether I will return them, I try them on every night hoping to come to a decision - the front detail is so beautiful it almost makes the other issues nonexistent. Don't think I would recommend to a friend tho, no one should go thru this much to make a pair of shoes work – that being said…I just might.

cute, but...
" I ordered the shoe online, didn't try on in the store. I fell for them before I took them out of the box completely, until I put them on. For some reason that piece that connects the front of the shoe to the ankle strap does not sit flush against the foot...it kinda stands straight up - so it looked a little awkward to me with a knee length skirt on. Plus around the side gaped a little, not the ankle strap but the strap between it and the sole (hope I am explaining this correctly). I think it's because it's synthetic - you know it's less forgiving than leather. I kept them anyway as they look pretty awesome with a pair of pants or jeans, but the funky stuff going in around the upper part of the shoe kept it from getting a higher rating.

nice, but...
" I have been dying to find grey shoes or boots, when I found these on clearance I was so excited. Got them home to try them on for my boyfirend and the lining ripped away from the inner pleather strip that helps the slouch maintain its height/shape. I tried to exchange them at another store, but by the time I got there the pair they had in my size was sold. Not a big deal, as I have worn them twice and they are still cute, I fear that at some point the lining will loosen more and one boot will be slouchier than the other.
They are comfortable though and the suede has a nice feel and texture. My calves are really slender and they would probably still look decent with a skirt/tights, but I have only worn them with jeans so far. But, if I had it to do over again I might get another pair of grey boots that were a little better made - for longevity. "

fell in love...extremely sexy shoe
" Bought a black pair in my local store with one of the gift cards I received for Christmas. I took them home, modeled them for my boyfriend and he fell for them, too! They make me feel sexy and they make the feet and legs look very appealing. I searched for the red ones, but several stores in my area didn't have anymore in my size (everyone else must feel the same as I do about them)...anyway, thank goodness for the online store, because I found them in red, in my size and I am ordering them TODAY. Better get yours, too, before they're all gone!

Unexpectantly adorable
" I saw these shoes from one aisle over and thought, hmmmm...interesting. But, up close they are very appealing and my friend told me he really liked them on! I think they can be worn with a cute shirt and jeans or with a nice wrap dress and off to work! They are versatile...see for yourself!

Awesome shoes
" I saw them online (in red) and thought, hmmm, they are "OK". But, then obsessed about them all night into the next day and then I felt like I had to have them - NOW! Called three stores in my area, found one that still had a black pair in my size. Oh my goodness, these shoes are so hawt! I had my friend with me and we traveled thru a rain storm (as I requested that they hold them until I got there and was unable to make it to the store the following day). He said that the shoes were definitely worth all the extra effort! Now, I have to find the red ones...if I were you I would get them - NOW - don't think, don't wonder, don't look for something else! Get them before they're all sold out!!!

Absolutely Hawt!!!
" My best friend found these is chocolate brown (at another store)...she wanted black and silver...I knew DSW would have them! I found them in her size and (shhhh...don't tell her, but) I also got a pair for myself. The heel is high and the way the sole is angled you have to be used to wearing heels or they will probably be very uncomfortable. There were two guys in the store telling me how sexy I looked in them, under the circumstance - how could I NOT buy them! I think I may actually get the cognac colored ones, too! I suggest you do the same.

" Got these for a great price, but they elongated my foot. There are other oxfords out there that are just as sharp, but more flattering. Had to return them....
