Claire Ballerina Flat (Women)

Basic size information: I am a true size 8.5 but do have some size 8s and 9s in my closet. I am a size 8.5 in Sam Edelman and Born but would size up to a 9 in whole sizes only. I ordered both the size 8.5 & 9 in the gold and am keeping the 8.5. Detailed review: I am a part time working/SAHM and like to look somewhat trendy and put together. I really debated over what color to get (black vs gold) and if TB is still trendy (according to multiple articles, it is). With that said if I cannot chase my kids in the shoes, they are not worth it particularly at the Tory Burch price point. I have been wanting a pair of TB flats for years and decided to go for it during the anniversary sale since my gold Born flats have bitten the dust and the Felicia flats are not part of the sale this year. This is a high price point for me even on sale, I typically do not spend over $100 on shoes so if these were not comfortable enough to wear right out of the box they were going back. BUT...ladies these are gorgeous!!!! They come in a cute little brightly colored box and come with a duster bag with the logo on them (I'm easily impressed, my other shoes to not have accessories...haha!). They look just as they do in the picture and are true to size, maybe would accommodate a slightly wider foot than mine (mine is fairly narrow). These are as comfortable as my Sam Edelman Felicia flats, maybe slightly less so but close to it. There is no significant arch support to speak of but they are comfortable to walk in. I would feel comfortable chasing my toddler on pavement with them, not dirt or wet grass because they could get dirty. I have already walked over a mile since I opened these 1.5 hours ago according to my fitbit if that gives you an idea of my activity level. :-) They are not as comfortable as my Born or Clarks flats...but they are so very very pretty! Now my only problem is: do I get the black too?

The combination of an almond toe, a slightly lower cut front (just a hint of toe cleavage), and a smaller medallion come together to make this a flattering and lengthening flat. Posted fit photos on my blog of this versus the TB Minnie - to me, the Claire looks a little sleeker and elegant. Fit true to size.

Just picked these up in black at the Nordstrom Early Access sale! Love them. I have been needing to replace an older pair of black Tory Flats to wear to work and this was the perfect replacement. Soft leather and don't seem as "stiff" as a few Tory flats I have tried on in the past. True to size, I went a .5 size up in the heel version of these flats which I bought in brown. Love!

Love these! Perfect flat for all occasions. I generally wear a size 10-11...in flats I always go with an 11 and these fit perfectly with no break-in time. They look narrow (which worried me because I have a wide foot) but they don't fit narrow at all. Perhaps they just make my foot look more narrow, yay!
