These might be the most comfortable shoes of the year!They are also very cute. I just ordered them in black. I have a narrow foot and the medium is comfortable and my foot is not slipping out.

Beautiful color, but too tight. I usually wear a wide width or sometimes, a normal (B) width, depending on shoe. This shoe was tight and even after wearing for several days, did not get wider. The leather did not stretch much at all and I tried to get it to do this. The Wide was not wide enough! So, sadly, I returned. (Have purchased others by this brand and the leather was more stretchy.)

These are a very comfy, stylish slip-on, great for when I'm in a hurry. And the metallic copper color is really fun!

These sandals are very comfortable and true to size. The elastic section of the cross straps is flexible and adjusts to your foot. They look good on the the foot. There is not much padding in the foot bed, but I've worn them all and had no problems. I bought them in all colors. All in all a great shoe.

This is a very comfortable and good looking shoe on the foot. I've had compliments and have been asked the brand, etc. I also ordered it in black. The elastic band allows for flexibility and movement, but it isn't binding. There is not much padding, but I've worn them all day and they were comfortable. They fit true to size according to my feet, which is narrow. All in all a great shoe!

I loved the way these looked but the leather is very stiff and uncomfortable for my foot - which is kind of wide. Also, for me, the strap doesn't come up high enough and my foot slides out. They are totally cute and since I did wear them once...they're mine - and I'll keep trying them.

I usually wear a 11-11.5 narrow in shoes. I ordered a 11 medium and the width and length were perfect for my narrow feet. The straps were not quite tight enough around my foot so my big toes slid forward over the edge of the shoe when I walked which is the main reason I'm returning the shoes. Other reviewers mentioned the stiffness of the straps and I would agree. Perhaps they would stretch and loosen during wear. I was surprised to find a very small amount of traction on the heel...no grooves on the foot bed of the shoe.

This picture is deceiving. Though it looks like the strap is half elastic, underneath that elastic is normal leather -- so the strap doesn't really stretch. They're just too difficult to slide on. They're also far less cute in person than online.

These shoes do not look good on my feet. However, I still kept them because I needed some casual black flats. They look prettier in the picture than on my feet.

This suit is great! The style is adorable and it is very comfortable. But I almost did not receive it! I first ordered a 10 and a 12 and when they came, I tried the 10 on first and it was too large (strange because I have been wearing a 10 suit for all of my adult life). So then I called and ordered an 8 and when that came, it was very small! I decided to look inside the size 10 suit (hang ticket said size 10) and I saw that it was really a 12! So now I had two 12s and an 8 and no suit to take with on vacation! By this time it was Saturday afternoon and the earliest I could get it was on Tuesday because all shipping was done until Monday morning! Zappos was so apologetic about it that it almost made me feel better but I still had the problem of leaving for the airport on Monday night for a flight to Jamaica on Tuesday morning! Oh well! On Sunday I had to order another item (that I did not need for my trip) but while on the phone with the sales person, she told me that my bathing suit delivery that was scheduled for a Tuesday was changed to a Monday! How in the world did Zappos pull that off? The bathing suit just arrived and it fits so I threw it in my suitcase and I am on my way to the airport hotel! I still cannot believe that they got this to me nor how they got it to UPS for Monday! I never saw such service from any store anywhere! Everyone will hear about this from me!

Great suit: comfortable, doesn't ride up or pull down. I am long-waisted, so I love that the straps are adjustable. It was true to my usual size, too. First time I've ordered a bathing suit online, and I was very pleased.

I don't usually take the time to write about a product or a company, but I feel that Zappos has earned that distinction. I have ordered and returned multiple items. My returns were because I ordered the wrong size. I have never dealt with a company that has made ordering and returning so effortless. I will certainly use this site again. As for the suit. I love it!

I just bought this suit at Ross...love it! I am usually a 14 but got a 16. Fits nice.

Order a size up! This has a very tight control material and a I could barely squeeze into my size (10). Pros: Very form flattering, shows off curves, makes your boobs look full, rouching and control tummy hid the lumps. Cons: Not great for the full-assed. The "panty-line" is quite tight and cuts into the meaty part (not in a flattering way).

Great suit. Love it. I do wish I had ordered a size 6 instead of an 8 as I think the suit runs a bit large.

Chest a little larger than expected. Ordered based on manufacturers size chart. Happy with level of spandex and control, however the side seams don't stay on the side, the creap toward the front and the look is unflattering. I will keep, but consider a smaller size if your smaller than a c cup.

This suit was so cute on the models and I thought I would give it a try. I have a 34DD chest so this made me look like a lady of the night. Which isnt good on jet ski's. If you are smaller than a D, I bet this would look really cute on. Anyways, I found a Spanx one that looked and felt better.

I really liked the style of this bathing suit. I bought the size I usually wear and it was tight (as expected though). I had to return this suit because it did not fit in the body (way too short). If you have a long torso, I would pass on this suit.
