Very Cute!
" First I want to say I LOVE the feathers and the cute lace design on the shoe as well as the added laces in the front. It gives you a sexy shoe in stiletto form! Mine actually came with a broken shoe lace : ( DSW sent me a new pair no problems. That was an easy fix!
Even though I really like the design I gave 3 stars because that traction on the bottom is insane! With a thin 5 1/2 inch heel there is no reason to have fabric as the traction on the bottom! I wear a lot of stilettos so I am by no means a rookie stiletto wearer. How does fabric bottoms help us for traction when walking, or even needing to do a quick get up to get across the street? I never understand why most heels don't have much traction, but this one has soft slippery fabric on the bottom! They know we are walking in them right?! This one is by far the worse one for traction I have ever owned. You may not want to wear these on rainy days or in slick areas. I am adding a traction stick-on on mine just to be safe and to allow me to wear them when I want. I just hope the traction stick-on actually sticks on and don't fall off since it is fabric on the bottom. I am used to being able to move a little more than a walk if needed in my stilettos, and I don't feel confident with these ones the way they are.
I am a size 5 in stilettos. Since these only came in the smallest size a size 6 I was a little worried that they would not fit. Still I wanted them so I had to order them! Thanks to them being high up onto your leg it does hold the shoe in place so I can wear them! I do notice when I walk they there was a little extra room nothing major, but to fix that I have put a heel cushion in them so I don't get the back of my heel rubbed to death. They are fine now. The zipper is on the side so the cushion never gets messed with.
The heel itself is very thin and sexy looking, but watch out on escalators! With the thin heel I had to stand on the soles of my feet to keep the heels from getting stuck in the escalator bars. Anyway the one I went on had bars that your heel could get stuck in like that so be careful! Last thing you want is your heel stuck in the escalator and you get hurt. I do love the thin heel no complaints there just be careful with areas where your heel could get stuck. I never had to worry about that before. This is the thinnest heel I ever owned.
All in all I like the shoes I just needed to tweak them a little to make them safer for me and able to be worn comfortably. What we go through to be sexy! It's worth it though once you get it to your liking! I hope my safety report has helped someone. : )

Great Birthday Gift!
" My mother purchased these for my husband for his birthday. He tried on many many different types of shoes. Even the most expensive ones that ran over a hundred dollars. He came back to this pair every time. He said this is by far the most comfortable shoe he has ever worn. He loves them, and his feet are happy! I don't think I have ever seen him so happy, and commenting so much how comfortable a shoe is with any pair of shoes before. I hope they keep making them by the time he needs another pair. Will be back for more!

Very Cute Blue!
" I lucked out and found one last pair in a size 5 1/2 in the clearance section! It is a really pretty dark blue! I am normally a size 5 so I didn't get my hopes up. I was able to fit them! The saving grace was the strap. It keeps my foot from falling out so I am able to wear them and with the little extra room my heel does not rub on the back of the shoe amazingly! I am very lucky for that! I was pleasantly surprised, and you can't even tell they are just slightly too big for me. The ankle strap really keeps it all in place. Since then I have tried other ankle strap pumps/stilettos in size 5 1/2 up to a 6. Not all work, but some do and that has really helped me find more shoes that will fit for my small feet! Yippee! On a flat shoe I am a size 6 1/2 but for anything 4 inches or taller I am normally a size 5. Just incase anyone wants to compare feet. Wish I could buy more in more colors! These are great!

Best Knee High Boot Ever!
" I have thick calves. I have wanted a knee high boot since forever. I can never seem to find one that is wider than the average, and also in a size 6.5. When I do find knee high wide ones they are never much wider than the regular size. If I want them to be wider than the average wide they make, they normally don't make them unless you are a size 8 or up. For someone like me with small feet it is really hard to find any boot let alone a knee high that is wide enough for my calves. I was so happy when I found these! I tried them on at the DSW store. They looked so great and fit just fine! I wore them all day and they are so comfy! They have enough room to fit jeans and my leg in. If you have thicker calves then this boot is the boot for you. Even if you don't have thick calves you will still look great in them. Just for people like me that find so many nice boots but can never fit them well here is your chance, and in a knee high. It also has some nice hardware on it that makes them look even more stylish! Super happy with this purchase!

Not made to last.
" I purchased this slipper for my husband. After 1 week the sole came apart and the whole slipper started to unravel! My husband did try to glue them back together, but that only lasts a couple days. Really disappointed.
If they stayed together my husband said they were very soft and comfy. He also only walked around the house with them. Never took them outside, or did work in them.

Very Comfy!
" I was a little unsure about them since I normally like my slippers with backs. I was afraid my feet would slip out. This one however does have a little back and it keeps your foot in just fine. You can kick your foot in the air and they stay on! They are so comfortable and soft! I LOVE them so much I had to purchase two. Considering stocking up for years to come! Thanks DSW!
