I love these shoes. The kitten heel gives them a dressy feel but since they are not too high they are very comfortable. I love these shoes so much I bought them in every color. The shoes fit true to size.

Do not buy - poor quality
I have only worn these shoes 4 times and the heel cap came off!! These are totally unwearable now. This is so upsetting because they are adorable sandals but also because they were quite expensive and I would expect the quality to be better! I am so disappointed with these shoes. Do not recommend buying them! Not worth the price.

I love the style but not comfy
I wore these sandals for a special occasion, but within an hour, they started hurting my feet, especially my pinky toes. I had to change into another pair of shoes.

Understated, Comfy, Perfect
I was worried after reading reviews that these shoes would be a tight toe box fit. They just arrived and are actually a perfect fit. For reference my foot is ~4 inches at its widest point, just over 9.75 inches length and I ordered size 9.5. Not too tight at all. The straps are thin but sturdy. The heel provides just enough lift and it is wider at base for more stability. I forsee these being a staple in my wardrobe. Quick delivery and excellent product. Thank you SE & NR!

Cute and comfy
Wanted a dressy shoe with small heel. These are so cute and comfy and great as a summer sandal.

Pretty but very narrow
I ordered this pair of heels along with the camille Kitten mule heel. while i loved the other pair, this one unfortunately didn’t fit, since it was too way too narrow. I wear a size 9 and have slightly wide feet and when i tried on these shoes, the front part was so tight that they left left marks even though i immediately took them off. the quality does seem pretty good from first impressions but unfortunately i can’t wear them at all. So unless you have very narrow feet, i would skip these.

no comfort meets style
a simple, fairly elegant and stable low heeled dressier sandal is great only for short walks and minimal standing.

Beautiful heels
These heels ran true to size. For me they were not stable enough when walking. About turned my ankle just trying them on. If you have a wider foot you would probably have no issues. Beautiful shoe

Cute
Cute candle, comfortable until I had them on longer than an hour. They are a little snug in the toes. I don’t feel like I have wide feet. Hopefully they stretch a little bit.

Beautiful Shoe but Not Comfortable
This shoe was a beautiful shoe and the color was great, but the shoe does not fit properly on my foot at all. I think it is very narrow and my heel kept slipping and making me turn my ankle. Had to return due to this.
