Just received the shoes today, I'm disappointed. To be honest, when they called this Mini Melissa, I thought it is from the REAL Melissa brand, but apparently not, they are made by Mel, and just happen to be called  Mini Melissa and advertised as it. It make me feel like they are the counterfeit brand. Okay, because my children own real Mini Melissa shoes, so I put them side by side and compared the two. The real Melissa shoes have superior quality no doubt, and also have a very nice scent to it. Well, the real Mini Melissa shoes will cost a little more, I bought them on sale at a department store, the discounted price is the same as this Mel shoes. So these shoes have to go back.
