“Bali D’Orsey Pumps” by Maiden Lane available in three wonderful colors of snake embossed leather.
These are truly beautiful shoes but a bit tricky. The ultra-slim stilettos make them a somewhat difficult to walk in on anything other than a soft surface (and cobblestone is definitely a challenge!) The fit is true to size so if you’re on the upper side of your number you might order up a half size. For D’Orseys though, they fit rather well; the ankle straps are comfortable and there is little slippage while walking. The insole also has quite a bit of padding to cushion the walk. Overall I like these a lot but I don’t recommend them for lots of walking or walking around the town.
I don’t have a lot of snake skin shoes but have had problems in the past snagging my stockings; like when I put one foot behind and around the back of the other ankle – like I often do while sitting at my desk, or when crossing my legs. Poor quality shoes tend to cause this. These however, don’t seem to be a problem here which is fortunate because snagged stockings make me want to drive off a bridge!…
