Beautiful Imperfect
" I give this evening clutch a five star rating, because I am sure I just happened to get one that's clasp did not line up accurately. I already had one in silver (which was in perfect condition), but exchanged it for the black, thinking that was more practical. However, upon getting it home, I realized that it did not close properly and returned it. This is a beautiful little bag, and fits everything necessary for an evening out.

Purchased for one thing, good for more
" I purchased these shoes because they matched a red plaid jacket. But, to my surprise, I found them to be the most comfortable "all-day-long walk around Manhattan shoes"! There is NOTHING wrong with them, except the laces are made of a very slippery fabric and keep sliding open. I'll just change the laces!!

Pretty & Perfect Height
" Yes, I used to wear 4" heels, and though I still like to look stylish, I can't wear more than 2-2 1/2" heels comfortably, being in my 70's.
These shoes are both the perfect look for New Year's Eve, as well as a comfortable heel height and fit. My only problem is they run a little long, thus the 4 stars.

Adorable & Comfy
" I bought these boots in denim and thought they were adorable. Many, many years ago (I'm a grandma) I had a similar pair and wore them out. The reason for only 4 stars is that, although they are comfortable, they do seem a little long. However, that is not preventing me from ordering the same pair in brown!

Just as I Thought!!
" These shoes looked cute and comfy online, and they are! They will look stunning with my red and black dress, all black dresses, and lots of other outfits with pants and skirts. The fact that I have a red suede bag exactly the same color doesn't hurt either!!

ADORABLE ...period!
" This bag is very cute, but extremely difficult to open and all I'd be able to fit in it is a key, lipstick and comb. I need (as do many others) an evening bag that I can carry eye glasses, tissues a compact, etc.
Unfortunately, I am going to have to return it.

Cute & Comfy
" These are very comfortable shoes, but a little too tight (or too low on top) in the front.
Once I had the top front stretched by the shoemaker, I was able to walk 2 miles in one day with them!!

Mis-sized?
" These shoes are adorable, and all other reviews say how comfy they are, but I couldn't even get my feet into them!!
Since I never had this problem before, I must assume this particular pair was mis-sized and I will try to exchange them for another pair of the same. What a dissapointment!

Beautiful shoe, perfect fit!
" I ordered these shoes thinking "I don't really need them, I have nothing to go with them, but they are oh so cute". When they arrived, I tried them on and they fit perfectly and looked stunning. Now I'm raiding my closet to find clothes to go with them, and so far I found one handbag and three blouses, plus a jacket! I'm thrilled!

Hot, Hot, Hot!
" Fabulous looking shoes!! They make this 70+ granny feel like a hot chick again!
The only problem is the heels feel a little wobbly, but I don't know if it's because they are so narrow, or because I have become so used to wedges.
At any rate, the only problem I had was choosing between "Passion Fruit" (green snakeskin with purple heels and lavender flower)or "Peach Passion" (Purple skin with orange heels and peach flower). I opted for the first, but may go back for the second too!! "

Take Reviews with a Grain of Salt
" I fell in love with the looks of this shoe, read the reviews, and most said to order a size smaller, so I did. They were so small, I couldn't get my foot inside! I went to the store and exchanged for my right size, and they fit great and look fabulous! Every color that I wear is in those shoes, so they go with everything!

Necessary Luxury
" I really didn't "need" these shoes ... I already have 14 pairs of black pumps, both for dressy and business. But at this price, I couldn't resist. Once I had them home I realized I have three different outfits with which they would be perfect! They are now my favorite dress shoes.

Perfect Neutral for Spring!
" I love my cute little Winkies. They are the perfect height and very comfortable. The only reason I'm giving them a "4" is because I had to bring them to the shoemaker to punch two more holes in each strap, as they were wide aroung the ankles.

Disappointed!
" Great style and would look terrific with jeans, but very uncomfortable. I can't even put my finger on why, except that there doesn't seem to be enough distance between the sole and the upper shoe, and it runs short. These shoes are going back.

" Very pretty and comfortable "shootie", just a little too big in the heel, but it might just be my foot.

Cute & Comfy
" I have 3 pair of clumsy looking and heavy sneakers, and was going on a cruise. I wanted something practical for the decks, but cute. These Keds are the most comfortable and pretty sneakers ever. I received many compliments and wore them constantly on the cruise. One thing though ... buy 1/2 size smaller.

Pretty But ...
" I didn't realize it had a thong when I ordered it and I find that, in ANY shoe, to be irritating. I would, however, recommend it, as it was very pretty and comfortable otherwise.

Not what it seems
" Your description of a 2 1/4" multi-colored pump sounded great. However, when the shoes arrived, they were closer to 3" (which I cannot wear), predominantly orange, and the white background had a dirty look to it, like it had already been worn on a city street. I didn't even try them on, they are going back!
