Beautiful sandals are exactly how they look in online. I love them but cannot wear them for long periods of time or I will get blisters where the straps cross going toward where they are once again sewn back into the shoe (at the platform). I get many compliments about the beautiful color and style each time I put them on. Maybe I can eventually wear them in to the point that I can comfortably have them on all day long without any repercussions (blisters) and pain. I still love them and would buy again if I had to do it all over again.
