GET IT GET IT GET IT!!!
" so unique and sophisticated! i didn't know what the other user was talking about when they said something about an extra compartment not shown. i had thought that this thing just flaps up and it was enough for me to drool.
then... i went into my local store.
the front zipper that you see? yeah, that thing isn't a mock zipper, it's real. THAT'S the extra compartment. sooo roomy.
i had a hard time figuring out what color to get. ultimately i got black but i am definitely considering going back for two other colors. that's how much i love this thing. i never get the same item in different colors. but this... yes, this is my exception.

perfect for narrow feet!
" my feet are on the more narrow side and these babies hug them oh so well!
the lining on the inside is so soft. most boots i've tried on were leather inside and out. these provide a top cushion for your feet so it's much more comfortable to walk in. so glad i stumbled upon these.
i guess only down fall is the ankle opening isn't to my liking. i personally wouldn't wear a dress with these because i think it'd look kind of awkward with my small ankles.
nine west's 'be there' is definitely pairing up with my skinnies this fall. "

order 1/2 or full size up!
" steve madden flats usually run short so make sure to order 1/2 or full size up! once you find the right fit, his flats are comfortable. this is SO cute. oxfords are trending nowadays but i could never really pull them off. i like this oxford-esque flat because it still keeps it feminine by showing off more skin that the regular oxford. i purchased the brown and might just have to come back for the black.

not my favorite...
" i don't know, maybe my feet weren't meant for these shoes. i feel like there is a lack of ankle support. i'd wear these to a wedding... one where there is absolutely no dancing, haha. for me, these shoes are something pretty to look at - not something sexy to strut in. keeping them anyway =] hopefully it works out for everyone else!

LOVE.
" three compartments?! two zippered, one magnetic - this bag is amaaazing. it has auch a rich yet urban look. i originally purchased the blush suede and wasn't in love with it, couple months later, i spotted the black leather at my local store and had to snag it. i HOPE to stumble upon the black suede soon. you can fit nearly everythinggg in this bag and it doesn't look bulky! i place my laptop, nalgen water bottle, paperback textbook, wallet, keys, and phone in it without having to dig through to find anything. i absolutely LOVE the rolled handle, it gives a more sophisticated look compared to the braided handles of the other model. and you can wear it two ways: on your shoulder or hold it with your antecubital, he other side of your elbow. pretty sure i have no complaints regarding this bag. even the signature ab keyfob is cute.

" i bought a 6 even though i am usually a 5 1/2. i REALLY wanted these shoes, lol. i am tempted to buy the cognac color as well. i popped two heel liners in and it was fine. there is a cushion at the ball or your feet making it really comfortable. it's cute, glad i got it on sale because i don't think i would have paid the full price for these.

not the color i expected
" i love the shape of this shoe, it makes my feet so dainty like! i just thought that it was shiny all around.. it's not... it's more like a snake-like print. i wanted silver heels so these are unfortunately going back. i wish i ordered the black matte when they still had my size! "

1/2 size up!
" size - 6
color - cognac
style - CHIC!
fit - great for my slightly narrow feet!
comfort - more comfy
overall - GET THESE.
i was SO upset when 5.5 went out of stock because that is my normal size. sometimes i lie to myself and think that 6's will fit... i just HAD to have these so i ordered a size 6 in cognac anyway.
SOOOOO happy i did! they ran slightly long so it was perfect! it is also slightly narrow which were perfect for my feet as well.
the color pictured is a lot brighter than in person but i love these so much, they are not going back to dsw.

i would recommend these just because they are so cheap and ideal. i didn't like how big these made my feet look. i love the rope heel and the casual height of the heel, but i just didn't like the way it looked on my feet. these went back unfortunately =[ "

overall - GET THESE.
they are so LIIIIGHT! i could not get over how amazingly light these shoes are! my friend refers them as my "foam shoes". i wish i could get the tan color because i have no idea what i can wear with the blue ones yet. if you're getting the blue ones, just note that it isn't as vibrant as pictured. but since they are so light and comfortable, these are staying with me!

adorable!
" size - 5.5
color - yellow
style - adorrrable
fit - slightly wide at the toe area
comfort - average
overall - try them on in person first.
i was going gaga over this adorable espadrille-esque style, plus i am on the hunt for yellow shoes. i thought these were the one but sadly, when i received it, i was disappointed. it made my feet look HUGE... not so cute. these went back.
i would recommend them only because you have to at least try them on.

great =]
" size - 5.5
color - gray patent
style - adorrrable
fit - great for my slightly narrow feet!
comfort - FANTASTIC!
overall - GET THESE.
i love the shape of the shoe but i have extreme long toes so i wish the toe box was juuust a little longer so i wouldn't have toe cleavage. and i wasn't exactly in love with the gray patent. these went back because i feel as if i could fall in love with a better shoe for the price. still, though - i think they are worth 5 stars and recommending to someone who is deciding whether or not to jump the fence.

great bag!
" got the cognac and looove it! my favorite thing about this bag (besides my love for rolled handles) is that the two vertical straps on the front have buttons! i was so stoked that i didn't have to unbuckle the straps in order to open the bag.
the only complaint i have is that i wish it had outer compartments as well. if this bag had a straight zip pocket on the back to hold things i use the most (cell phone, pens, wallet, lip gloss, etc) it would be FLAWLESS!
overall, though, very efficient bag - highly recommended!

" size: 5 1/2
fit: perfect for my slightly narrow feet, a little long for me, though.
comfort: comfy, just slightly wobbly at times.
style: chunky heel for the win!
overall: love the look and shape of these beauties! so bummed that i had to return them to dsw.
ladies, if you have been eyeing these at the store and have had the chance to try them on, stop pondering and just get them!
if you have not had the chance to try them on, however, really think about it because the past reviews are true. if you have wider feet, these might not work out for you.
my experience with these shoes are somewhat... unique? i loved them SO much, but my left foot just was not having it! it kept slipping out and were wobbly at times. if only these came 1/2 size shorter, i would definitely re-order.
i have been into chunkier heels lately, i think they give a really sophisticated look. and the SUEDE! so, so, so amazing. pretty upset that these had to go back. "

" size: 5 1/2
color: yellow
fit: runs wide and long!
comfort: average
overall: i loved the color, the heel, and the espadrille platform but because they do not fit, these are unfortunately going back to DSW.
these are so so so so so so SO adorable for spring and summerrr! i twidled my thumbs the WHOLE time awaiting for the mitsu to arrive in my mailbox. i LOVE the pastel yellow color, it is exactly as pictured online and the espadrille platform is to die for. every thing was great until i put it on =[
this shoe runs wide and long. although the canvas is not made of super duper comfy material, i think it is worth the price.
don't pass these up, it will look great with a dainty skirt/dress and a sunhat!
just be sure to get a 1/2 size smaller than your normal. i don't want to advise going a whole size down because that may be too much. i'd suggest to try it on before you purchase if at all possible.

" size - 5 & 1/2
pros - cute CLOSED toe wedge
cons - stiff
when i purchased these shoes, there was a color option of yellow. it looked cute, springy, and pastel-like in the picture and i fell in looove.
when i received it, however, it turned out to be more of a mustard-yellow color. i did not mind it but i already have a mustard-yellow shoe and was really dying for a pastel yellow.
the overall shape of the shoe is cute, it makes for a perfect accessory to a dainty spring outfit. i feel the heel height is perfect and walking can be managed. i purchsed my usual 5 & 1/2 but it ran slightly short and small. i could return and exchange for a 6 and i believe it would fit perfectly butttttt there is no color that i want, so!, these went back to dsw.
if you're on the fence of purchasing this shoe, i recommend jumping over because it is such a "go-to" spring look. i love closed toe wedges, it almost brings an essence of innocence =]
from my experience, you would have to wear it in a lot to make it less stiff and order a half size up.

louboutin inspired?!
" i can't help but notice that it looks EXACTLY like the infamous Christian Louboutin caged heel... which runs farrr more expensive than these.
this is an ever growing trend and so versatile! i have seen pictures of celebrities wearing it with jeans, tights, shorts, and dresses.
the previous reviewers have stated that they are a bit uncomfortable and i can see why that would be; but at the same time, the pain of blisters for a couple of hours does not trump the heaps of compliments you'll receive with this cute bootie!

my "GO TO" shoe!
Images for this Review

" PROS_ versatile, practical, AND cute.
CONS_ no platform for support.
these are my "go to" shoes because they look great with skinnies, dress, shorts, skirts, even flares!
the straps are so dainty and cute, i love the way they hug my feet.
it's a 4 inch wedge, which is fine - but if you're thinking of walking around streets that aren't the smoothest, it may hurt after a couple of hours. the straps on the very top also get a bit uncomfortable after awhile. buuut if you can deal with a little pain, it's all good.
for the most part, the fit is perfect and if you're not planning on roaming cobble stoned streets for hours, it's comfy enough to walk around a college campus, office, mall, etc.
i get sooo many compliments with these a shoes so if you're on the fence about them because they look "different", i recommend you just hop over because they are worth it in my opinion.
as stated before, you can wear these with anything and i've had these since the winter and plan to wear them spring, summer, AND fall =] "

50/50
" i thought the straps were the cutest part of this shoe when i first saw it online. what i anticipated to be my favorite part of this beauty, however, was the most tackiest part! the material was cheap and flimsy.
i ended up taking it out... they look fine without them but i plan to look for a replacement string - perhaps a black sheer ribbon.
the rest of the material on the shoe is not up to par, either.
i am keeping these because i love the heel height and the material is durable enough for a couple more years.
i've worn this shoe to work and i will admit the see through part of it is kind of questionable... but it's definitely sexy. that is why i wore black thigh highs by day and took the tights off to show some skin by night! =]
