These are MARIKO in black neoprene with 9cm block heel. They were way way way comfy. 

Did you get a pair?  Real shame if you didn't.

I'm still trying to get my head around how I was able to fit these booties!!! They are Nine West ankle boots and I know that this brand is very generous when it comes to sizing! This particular pair is a size 8 and usually anything no matter what brand in a size 8, I don't even look at it twice because that's ridiculous to try and even imagine fitting a size 8 shoe on a size 10 foot.  Still I was able to fit them on.  Much to say they fit pretty well,  still snug because the last person who wore them didn't break in them. I'm speechless.  I did try on a different pair of Nine West shoes in a size 8 and my foot couldn't even get in halfway.

Interesting to hear you say that. My experience has been just the opposite. I have found Nine West to be uncomfortably small on me. I have tried several styles of their heeled loafers in US women's size 12, which is normally quite ample in other brands, and have found Nine West short and unwearable. 

Perhaps they've changed their sizing a bit in the last couple of years and it's now more generous. I will have to consider giving them another try.

I expectthey were simply mislabeled.

[Sydheel]

just spent an hour at the Brisbane DFO. Nice place but could have blown my expense account wide open.

tried on a bunch of shoes and boots in WITTNER store and also in WINDSOR SMITH and TONY BIANCO

In the end so many choices. I have 3 on hold, while I make a decision, as I can only afford 1 at present.

O the dilemas we face !!

Great look!  I hope you had fun showing those boots off and that they were appreciated by the folks around you.

[pebblesf]

Boy o boy, those booties and boots look great!  You must have gotten some positive feedback for sure...

The booties were probably just mislabeled...

[Sydheel]

[Sydheel]

[Sydheel]

Lastly breakky in the mall

Jeggings and old fave wittner MIllionaire suede ankle boots in sand colour

thats all

[Thighbootguy]

The gray OTK boots and the Tammy thigh boots would have been a nice addition to your collection.

The suede ankle boots do look good though.

Sounds like you had a busy trip but still managed to have fun.

 They feel like they haven't been broken in unless the leather is really hard.  Or the last owner had them stretched to fit a larger foot and somehow managed to keep the leather taut.

Thank you

yes I generally wear hose.

I know I shouldn't in strappy sandals but for try on its easier and some shops prefer it. Though the girls serving me at WITTNER outlet did say i should take the stockings off and show off my red nails. LOL

[Logjam]

I think the ladies were right! By the way, I like the strappy sandals - did they follow you home?

I Agree with you, must make trying on heels a breeze. Must feel great wearing hose all the time - and nice and snug under those jeggings!
