| Patent Mona Mary Jane in Navy here |
***Warning - Do not even look at these unless you are willing to take a lot of pain and suffering***
I love, love, love these shoes. They are just the right shade of navy. Just the right shiny patent. Just the right heel height. Just the right placement of the straps. They are now on sale ( final, you are warned again). But holy moly do they hurt like hell. I did go up a size 9 to 9 1/2. Didn't really help. I put my shoe stretchers in for two days. Helped a teeny, tiny bit. Wear them after I get out of the shower, while I put on make up, dry my hair, etc ( Hubby loves that). Done that 3-4 times and that has helped...either I am stretching them out or just getting used to the pain. But like any girl in love I am willing to overlook Mona's one downfall (I know). I am determined to make them work. Foolish, yes. But I love them!
They look so good!
They hurt so bad!
Another victim of fashion.
So would you say these run half a size too small? I'm usually a 7-7.5 in heels, what size would you suggest. I don't anticipate having stretching issues as my feet a very narrow.
ReplyDeleteThanks!

I would say they run 1/2 size too small. It's not that I need the shoes neccessarily stretched; I need the patent leather not to be sooo stiff. Since they are no longer on final sale and 30% off, give them a try. I still am afraid to wear them out :) Working on it tho.
DeleteI hear ya, I love and hate them too! So much that I bought pair number 2 in violet suede! Uhhg, beautiful, but so uncomfortable!
ReplyDeleteI have wide feet and plan to go a size up. Do they tend to fall off when you're walking in them?
ReplyDeleteI went up a 1/2 size, 9 to 9 1/2, and the fit is dead on. They do not fall off. For wider feet I would definitely consider 1 whole size bigger. The patent leather is NOT forgiving. They will take lots of break in time. They are beautiful but I wear them sparingly because I still haven't totally broken them in. We've come a long way tho.
