Women's Red Converse All Star Lift Platform Chucks! Size 8

So cool/ Chucks. All Star Platform Chucks in fire engine red. I love them but they're too big for me. Please read some reviews about Converse sizing. For me, they're half size too big - should have bought 7.5 instead of 8. Bummer. My loss is someone else's gain? Now, the skinny: Size: Womens Converse 8 (I have no idea what the number on the sole means but the tag inside says 8 and that's what I bought) Color: Red, White, Black detailing with white laces. If you really want to rock these, get some Tom's B&W Checkerboard laces Flaws: I have no idea how to make the white parts really white. Sorry, I did wear them a few times before finally admitting I made a sizing mistake...sad. Gotta love Chucks! Thanks so much for taking a look. Cheers!
