Scone Slingback Pointed Toe Flat (Women)

Buttery soft leather upper, enjoyed putting it on. It’s an edgy shoe. As someone pointed out, it is very pointy, but looks fine if you’re wearing it under a wide pant and need a pointy shoe to poke out under the pant leg and sharpen the outfit. My usual size is 6.5 (5’2” height) but with the postpartum weight at 136 lbs, sized up to 7M. Unfortunately have to return it though. My foot is generally too broad for Nine West shoes and kitten heel sandals, but still good in most shoes. I never have to get a broader version. But with this shoe, even the 7M felt snug around the bridge; I know that with some walking, the slight swelling of the foot would make this shoe unbearable to wear. I could size up to 7.5M but that would leave too much room in the back. Overall: Good shoe, probably size up unless you have a thin foot.

I love slingback shoes and gravitate towards shoes that have a more pointed toe because they elongate your legs. I do not like ballet flats or Mary Janes for adults at all. So, when I saw these online, they called my name. They are made of butter soft leather which makes them super comfortable and are well constructed. I deducted one star because, while I like pointy shoes, these are really, really pointed. I feel like I am wearing witches' shoes. I may still keep them, because they really are comfortable. I just don't want to look ridiculous.
