My wedding shoes came and they're fab! They fit, too! This is the first time I've ordered shoes online and it was worried. I found them various places but the only place that had my size was Amazon.com. I did get a discount which was then eaten up by the charge for customs and duty but never mind. It's for a good cause! The heel is not very high and the toe is pointy but they're a little wider than a normal width. I worried that they wouldn't be wide enough due to my bunion but they fit really well. The next wider width would have been too much, especially for my smaller foot.

They're a suede finish and a soft leather so they'll stretch a bit but even without that, they will be fine. I had a pair of red shoes like this many years ago, minus the strap. They were not suede but they were a soft red leather with a similar heel and the pointy toe on those had a brass cap. I loved them! You really can wear red shoes with just about anything, too. I probably paid more for them than I ever have for shoes, with the duty fees and shipping it was about $140 but after all, they're for my wedding outfit and my dress cost a third of that so really, I'm ahead of the game!

All in all, a result!
