Beautiful shoes! Comfortable and elegant, with just enough heel to flatter the leg, but not so much as to take the spring out of your step- these are shoes that you can wear all day and into the evening. The color is versatile and just soft enough of a deeper brown to wear year round. The ballet flat look is a sweetheart classic, adding a 20th century preppy accessory to jeans or work wear. I am a size 39, and in between an 8.5 & a 9; these were big on me and a true, full 9. Shoes are like new in box but soles show some signs of being worn in the store. Classic brown leather ballet flats with a square toe. Slim bow detail at vamp. Smooth leather upper and clean lines.
