If you are shy, don't buy these chic shoes. Yet to wear them that I am not stopped to ask where did I find them. Not only are they unique they feel great on. It feels like walking barefoot. I love being so tall when I wear these while still feeling as if I am in flats. Great shoe for us Shorties to wear with those long jeans. Love the purple so much that I came back for the black. Do not understand the negative reviews at all????????
