Beautiful shoes, but can't wear for more than an hour.  Also, just a bit too much with the platform and super high heel.  I love high heels but I think this would have been much improved if the hidden platform were half an inch, and the heel b/w 3-4 inches.  seems like the design and the print would have worked in a more classy way, with a slightly smaller height.  since these shoes are a bit aggressive, i usually pair it wiht a conservative outfit to avoid a hookerish image.  Wouldn't have purcahsed at full retail, but a good value on sale.
