What a disappointment!  So attractive!  I have their other shoes which have elastic in the material of the shoe.  This does not and I knew that but the material is HARD or STIFF.  No give what so ever.  Putting them on was painful.  When I had them on they are far too long and simply not wearable. A smaller size wouldn't work as they are fairly narrow.  I am just so sad because they are just so pretty.  Off they go back.  A positive note is they arrived really quickly.  That's always great!
