"the previous reviewer got it right--these boots are beautiful, but they do indeed have a rainboot-like quality to them around the ankle."

wanted to like them but...
"...these boots are very attractive but perhaps a bit too much gold for me--it's very shiney and I could have done with only one gold accent instead of three."

cute and comfy!
"I got these in grey and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! I always get compliments on them and they are very comfy. They fit true to size but I got them a half size up because I wanted to be able to tuck jeans and thicker pants into them and I usually walk a lot so I didn't want it to be too snug. I would highly recommend these to anyone who wanted a more stylish, yet affordable alternative to UGGS"

gorgeous cosma
"The metallic sandal looks beautiful, but I already have shoes and sandals in that color so I went with the black sandal. The finish of the leather and gold metal are duller than I expected, but it gives the sandal a more natural look. I am a size 7.5 but with long toes and slightly wide feet so the 7.5 was a few cm short for me, and since there is a backing to the sandal it pushes my toes forward. I'm exchanging for an 8, which I think will be just the right fit. This has been the nicest black sandal I've found so far that wasn't overly strappy, studded, or tacky looking. Seriously, is it that hard to produce a pretty black sandal? Good thing for SM Luxe's Cosma."

mia reptile flat
"The sliding arrows aren't working for me right now, but trust the reviews that say this flat runs narrow, especially for the girls with a wider feet like myself. I am a 7.5 and I ordered a size 8 in black which is comfy when sitting but a bit snug when walking around. There's no size 8.5 left so I'll stick it out with the 8. It's very soft, simple yet the reptile pattern gives it more style. The finish is a tad shinier than I expected but it's just the right amount."

sexy/edgy/versatile/but far from perfect
"Pros: Just like my title, these boots are sexy, edgy, yet not over the top so they are pretty versatile..would look great with leggings, tights or skinny jeans (or even bare legged if you dare). They look hot, and make my thighs look slimmer, which is a plus. They are pretty comfy for such a skinny heel but I have high arches so I had to put in some arch support. I like that it's classic black and the shape is classic yet sexy but the studs add a cool touch..not too biker chick, but just edgy enough to stand out.
Cons: Now on to the last part of my title..far from perfect...These boots are a good value, but you get what you pay for (it's not worth the retail price of $120 so I'm glad it's at a DSW price and I had discount codes)..like the description says, it's synthetic, and believe me it's apparent as soon as you take them out of the box. That faux leather smell and that faux leather crinkle..not recommended for super skinny chicks because the material will crinkle in an unflattering way. Best to wear at night so the flaws won't be as noticeable."
