These shoes are super cute and actually look better in person than online. However, they fit horribly! I wear a size 7.5 and started with that size but they were way too small. So I returned them and got a 8.5, that size fit perfect in the toe section but was way to big on my heel. Hated to have to return them but they simply do not fit. I do have wide feet though so I imagine a person without that problem would be safe with just going up a half size.
