The shoes are absolutely gorgeous when they arrive. I ignored the reviews and decided to order that shoe anyways despite the fact that they said it would fall apart. It did last longer than an hour but it totally fell apart within the first day of wearing them. I'm going to try out shoe glue to repair them if possible and will update my review based on what happens there...update: so the glue totally work for about 5 day wears, and then they broke again in a new way...
