First of all, I originally bought these boots for a trip to Europe, I wanted something versatile easy to add layers to warm up, mix and match, etc. Well I order them ahead of time, put them away and tried not to use them before my trip, oh well my trip stil hasn't come and I already wore them like five times, they are just INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL I couldn't resist. I wish I had a picture of one of the outfits I wore with them but I've been very busy. I'm probably going to add some pictures once I take pictures. I love that you can literally throw anything on you with this boots and you automatically look stylish and sophisticated. I also love the fact that is not the typical pair that everyone buys and the heel is a little bit higher than the regular ones but that is part of what makes these ones even better. I also size down, I usually buy 9 for flats and more thin shoes, for boots and sports shoes I wear a 8.5 and for this ones I decided to do 8 and it fits perfect with thick socks!
