Larra Platform Slide Sandal (Women)

I normally buy a half size larger in a sandal because I don’t want my foot hanging off. Usually wear an 8 but purchased an 8 1/2. They look like a size 10! I wish Chocolat Blu would get their sizing down. I have an 8 1/2 in another style from them that barely fits. These are too expensive to have this much variation in sizing. Just too much trouble to keep.
