Promising Review: "I love the trend of ballet-inspired flats but I was skeptical to spend this much on a pair somewhat similar to what I have. However...I absolutely LOVE these shoes! The leather is so soft and I already know these shoes won't go through that uncomfortable breaking-in stage. They're like wearing fashionable slippers. I'd recommend ordering 1/2 size up." —Trendychik1
Get them at Nordstrom for $670. (Available in a variety of different colors and in sizes 4-12.)
Promising Review: "I went to Nordstrom to try them on because they suggested ordering a whole size up. This was not the case for me. I am a 6/36, and I fit perfectly in a 6/36 in these. These are my first Valentino shoes, and they are not my last. I picked up Rockstud strap sandals while I was there too because I loved these so much. I was also impressed with how comfortable they were. They look great with a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans rolled up, and that is how I will probably wear them most of the time. That's what attracted me to them; the fact that you can wear them with just jeans and a T-shirt. I was hesitant to purchase them, but I'm so glad I did!" —sab5

Promising Review: "I ordered these shoes for my sister's wedding in black -- they are far more beautiful than the website picture! Most beautiful shoes I have ever owned! I haven't worn heels in a few years and went through an entire evening dancing like I never missed a day in heels! Husband loved them, many compliments, stunning shoe. I highly recommend this shoe and can't wait to buy more in the beautiful new colors!" —lovemymanolos

Promising Review: "Order a whole size up from your normal size. I am usually an 8 but ordered a 39. Pigalle Follies are my fave style because of the heel height and they're comfy to wear all day. The color is mind blowing, so if you're debating, def buy them while you see your size." —Simple781

Promising Review: "I'm in love with these. I was concerned these might be too tall for me, but they are perfect! They hit a couple inches above the knee, just like in all the pics I've seen on blogs. They tie in the back. Also, I found them to be true to size for a boot." —Emily C

Promising Review: "Worth the BIG bucks! I have a narrow heel and a wide toe area, which makes finding a flat super difficult. I usually wind up with a shoe that's tight in the front and loose on the back. I was first attracted to these because of the smaller opening, (meaning less likely to fall off the heel). The super supple leather meant it will not be tight in the toe area. Sure enough, the design kept it comfortably on my foot. I also love the simple design. I don't want metals, buttons, bows, and all the other stuff." —railqueen

Promising Review: "After buying these shoes I didn't have enough money for rent, food, or bills. However, I look FABULOUS!!!!! People can't help but stare at me as I walk by and I'm sure it's the shoes and not the fact that I haven't showered in eight days. These shoes are my ticket to the big time I can feel it!" —lj
