These shoes are really cute on. They are blue sparkley with a slight gold trim around them. I was in love out of the box. Ok the 2 stars come from the fact that they have little to no traction. I went downstairs in the morning and slipped head over heels. A sprained ankle and bruised knees gave me the idea not to wear them when going down any stairs. I think a little more structure with the bottom of the sandals is definitely needed. I like them so I'm going to keep them but I will slightly file the bottoms of the shoe with sandpaper it will give the traction I need. Please! If you purchase these beware that they are slippery and wear them with that in mind. Update 7/20/15: Okay I kept these sandals and my situation kept getting worse. I started to slip on level concrete. I hadn't done the sandpaper trick so I decided to send them back for a refund with a note about how dangerous the shoe was to me. Too bad. I liked the blue.... .
