Cassiasticina Ballet Flat

This shoe is absolutely stunning and very comfortable. I also love that it has the newer “everlasting red sole” so they don’t scuff immediately upon wear. As a former dancer, wearing these is so nostalgic. They pair well with both denim and work pants/skirts. It took a couple exchanges to get the right size. I went down a whole size and possibly could have sized down an additional half size. I recommend treating the delicate satin before wear with a protective spray to prevent water and stain damage.

I followed Nordstrom’s instructions to size up, which I often do for designer shoes, but for this style, that was bad advice. I ordered a half size bigger than my normal, and the shoes were huge on me.
