Essex Platform Loafer (Women)

I bought these for the color and styling details and followed some of the reviewers advice to size down. In my case the instep was too tight and the shoe too small, so I think a size 6 (usual) would have fit perfectly. I had to return them. The shoe was wide enough but I really could not comfortably wear a half size smaller than I usually wear in Linea Paolo brand. I’m Considering ordering in my size in another color because I love this brand and have only found Sizing off one time in all my purchases (several). They seem to be TTS 9O% of the time and are a cute shoe.
