Circus by Sam Edelman Canyon Bright White Patent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Depending on the brand, I'm either a 7 1/2 or 8 but with this brand I'm a solid 8 with my heel right on the edge. So if you're in between sizes, I would defiantly recommend sizing up. There was concern that the decorative design would rub the tender skin on the top of my foot raw but luckily the leather is pretty soft and didn't do that. The design has these little spikes all around it though and that did cause some irritation, because...yeah...they poke you every time you take a step. The spikes on the design are absolutely pointless. All in all these are really cute, fairly comfortable shoes. I appreciate them having a little more pizazz than just a regular sandal and I think these will work better as a dress sandal than a sporty “walking around all day outside when it's hot” shoe. I'm worried when it gets hot that the leather design will cause more irritation due to sweat.
