Orsolo Mary Jane Flat

The pair looks cute both when put on and by themselves. But they have a strong smell from whatever chemicals are used for making the shoes, once removed from the plastic bag. (I sniffed and compared, so it wasn't from the plastic bag, but the actual shoes.) I might keep them by leaving them outside for at least a week to get rid of the smell, but the heels keep slipping away while walking a few steps just for trying the fitting. I was hoping they wouldn't do what pump shoes usually do to me. Aka, the belt does nothing. So I had to return. It's a pity. I want to love them, as they are stylish and appropriately cushioned. So I think they have the potential to be a pair of comfortable shoes for more formal occasions without sacrificing the comfort.
