Annoyingly comfortable...

" From day one these shoes are comfortable. No pinching, no blisters, supported insole, looks cute with jeans, sweats, capris. I wear them in a business casual work environment with skinny jeans and they look great. I'm going to buy a second pair because I know I'll give this current pair so much wearing. The picture shown on the website is true to the shoe that I received.

Great all round workout shoe
" I got this in the basic black and white and it looks just like it does on the website, so no surprise there. It is incredibly lightweight, almost to the point that you forget you're wearing it. On me at least, it's very low on your foot but that is what I was after. If you want a workout shoe that feels as though it sits up higher around your foot, this may not be the right one for you. This would not be a good running shoe, as the name points out, it's a training shoe. So, if you're a runner, don't cheat yourself but make sure you get something with more padding/support/sole etc. Otherwise, this is a great workout shoe.

Apparently an awesome shoe
" I actually purchased these for a friend and as he wore his previous pair to the point of them falling apart, I'm guessing these will follow the same path. He wears them a lot, skates with them on and they match just about everything he wears. He's happy with them, I know this because I got a thumbs' up and a "Yeah, definitely." From a man of few words, high praise indeed.

Classy and comfortable
" I wear a 7.5 and have square feet, each time I've ordered these shoes I've gone with the 7.5, but could really go with the 7. After a couple of wears, the shoe has molded/moulded/shrunk to your foot and I could do with the smaller size. I have two pairs of these shoes (the black leather and the textured leopard print). Both are incredibly comfortable and super cute to wear with a casual look or business casual. Depending on how you dress them, you could even go to business professional. They have a very slight hidden wedge outer sole and a great padded inner sole. Both styles are true to the website photo provided.

Possibly the comfiest shoe I've ever owned...
" It really is. The sole and inner sole are padded so you get bounce with each step. The beige color goes with everything and the black does too, but I usually just wear it with black. I've just ordered my second pair of beige as I can tell I'll be wearing them all through the summer. If I HAD to find a fault, it would be that the round ballet toe doesn't make your foot look elongated, which is sort of a necessary plus when you have Hobbit feet like I do (just the shape, not the hair). However, I'll suck it up because it's a cute shoe, goes with everything (work and play) and is soooo comfy. I'm not posting a pic, it looks like it does in the site photo.

Cute, comfy flat!

" Very comfortable with a little extra bonus padding in the heel. Works great for a business casual office environment and for going out shopping, on a date etc. The only downside is that because it's a flat shoe, it won't make your legs/ankles look slimmer if you don't have naturally slim legs/ankles. However, if you're okay with that, then you'll love this shoe. I'm so okay with it, that along with the leopard print, I've also ordered the light grey snakeskin and the pale pink patent versions. This shoe will go with just about everything you own, but I'm pretty sure you didn't need me to tell you that :)

Gorgeous flat boot
" I haven't worn them yet, so I've only given them 4 stars. However, if they're as comfy to wear as they are gorgeous to look at then you can consider them at 5 stars. I got the wide calf version and they fit snugly and don't make me feel like I have tree trunks for lower legs. Definitely worth buying, I'm pretty sure that they'll look awesome with skinny jeans, leggings/jeggings and even skirts. Verdict: Very Happy.

Classy looking, day-to-night shoe...
" Square feet won't really love this shoe, but if you're willing to suffer a little then I'd say go for it. The shoe has a decent height heel and the platform sole helps to avoid the "toppling forward without alcohol" effect. The snakeskin pattern says it all as it's the go to pattern at the moment, but I have to say that this shoe will definitely make the day-to-night transition really easily. It's the type of shoe that looks great with business professional, business casual, casual and nite-out clothes. Pretty good all around - I only gave it 4 stars because it pinches some at the toes. Again, square feet won't love this shoe, but they will like it a whole bunch.

Normal feet will appreciate this sandal
" Yes, I said normal. I consider mine not normal as they are kind of square, so please don't be offended if you also have square feet. Anyway, because of my fun foot shape these sandals were not the most comfortable that I've worn; however, they certainly weren't the most uncomfortable. I wore them for a morning but ended up swapping out at lunch - mostly because I sit so much at work that my feet swell up. I know, not exactly sexy but reviews aren't really supposed to be. Anyway, my toes ended up feeling very pinched but keep in mind this is mostly due to my foot shape and not the sandal itself. If my feet were a little more narrow, I'd be waaaay happy with this sandal.
There's plenty of padding in the sole and the height of the sole platform doesn't let you slide down in the sandal because of the height of the platform on the heel. The snakeskin pattern will go with just about anything and makes this sandal look a bit more posh than casual, which is great for business casual work environments.
I'd say 7/10.

True to website description...
" You can't write much about a purse - it's true to the description that DSW provides and looks just as awesome as I thought it would.
One point might be (depending how picky you are) is that the color has more of a greenish-brown tint to it than in the photo. However, odds are is that it's to do with the lighting used in the photo and the lighting here in my office. Don't let this put you off as otherwise this is an on-trend, sweet looking bag. "

Perfect going out shoe...
" This shoe is fabulous for going out and feeling gorgeous in. The heel is pretty high, but if you're used to high heels then it shouldn't be a problem. I was definitely in a little pain after being in them all evening (walking between clubs and dancing) but go figure! Otherwise, these are a comfortable shoe and the slight platform helps to even out your foot placement so you don't feel as though you are going to topple forward. I also got them in pink, so I can't vouch for how gorgeous the black ones look. A definite buy!!!

Buy these!!!
" Definitely a great buy - heel is tall enough to give you some oomph, but not too tall to cause injury. The height of the boot itself is great and true to the advertisement and the material is slightly padded on the shaft so it's really comfy. The picture shows a slight sheen on the material around the foot but not on the shaft of the boot, but know that the sheen is all over the boot. However, it doesn't take away from the look at all as the material used is has the look and feel of animal hide (but it's not real so don't freak out). I can't wear them to stand in all day (e.g. shopping marathon), but I can definitely wear them all day at the office, evening for drinks etc.

A great work shoe for every outfit
" I got this shoe in black and it's a great choice as it goes with EVERYTHING. I gave it 4 stars as the only drawback is when you have feet that are slightly square, the pointed shoe isn't the most comfortable. However, that's something that you should think on before ordering. I just deal with it and wear it. Definitely worth the money as it looks great and seems to be a well-made shoe that will add a bit of class to your everyday work wardrobe.

Great flip flop for summer
" I like this flip flop all around. It looks good, fits well and although casual, the beading makes it look a little more special. The only drawback I found is that the beads rub a little on the tops of my feet, but I would imagine that will stop when the flip flop has been broken in more.

Cute summer purse
" Looks even better in "person" than in the picture. Extremely well-made. Has a very classy look about it, doesn't look tacky or cheap. Worth the money.

Darling shoe when you size it right...
" This shoe has Springtime written all over it. I got it in green in the 7 and the 7 1/2 as I couldn't remember which size was the right one. The 7 is definitely too small and oddly enough, the 7 1/2 is a little too big. However, I would rather the shoe be too big to start with or I'll never wear it. Am going to exchange the 7 for a 7 1/2 in another color. Looks great with capris, city shorts and skirts...break out the fake tan lotion!!!
