I have a major height complex (even though I'm 5'5 1/2...5'6 on a good day) and pretty much live in heels. I won't buy any shorter than 5 inches. And ever since
Steve Madden stopped making the Darrina shoe, I've been at a huge loss. They were perfect for work, jeans, dresses, etc. went through 3 pairs! Anyway, I thought I'd give these a shot. For starters...these
shoes are not 5 inches! They are 6! I double checked on the
Steve Madden website. These are by far the tallest heels I own and they are totally comfortable. I love that they are so tall but it does cut down the number of pants I am able to wear these with because they are too short. I wish the platform was not quite so high because sometimes it looks weird with certain pants and what not. All of that being said, I now own these
shoes in Black and Blush leather. They're definitely sexy to wear out and great if you hate getting your pants hemmed. Is my quest for the perfect black pump over? No. But I still really like these. I should also mention when I say comfortable, I live in heels and don't get pedicures because I need my calluses. I wear these to work
almost daily and they only start to bother me at the very
end of the day...so "my comfortable" may not be the everyday person's "comfortable". That being said. Buy these!
