Bought them for my girl, and she stated that they are cute...but a little smaller than size shows and are unusually narrow for a medium.  The shoes are smaller than advertised and dig into the outside of the foot where the toe ends and make them uncomfortable.  If you are a 9 you will need a 10 if you are a 10 then you can move on to another pair of shoes.  The buckle is a unique thing in that you set the buckle where you want it then you slip the whole belt w buckle into a loop that is open at the top.
