3 stars because they're gorgeous, which is the standard for Stuart Weitzman shoes. However unlike all the other 9.5 pairs of SW that I own, these pumps run unusually small. Not a little, I mean A LOT! Very disappointed about that - super disappointed that the next 1/2 size up is almost double the price. Strange situation - I returned them and thanks to Amazons easy return process, it was a breeze.
