Customer Reviews J. Renee Bambalina

These are really lovely shoes, they seem very well made and the rubber sole make them very safe. And they are a perfect match to my mother-of-the-groom dress. But they are just too big, a little wide, and a bit too long. I'd imagine that an 11.5 would fit very well, but that isn't available in this shoe. Too bad and I'm very thankful Zappos is so easy to work with as I go through shoe after shoe trying to find the right one.

Beautiful shoe. Attractive style and finish. Too tight in toes despite size wide.

Lovely shoe but runs small. I ordered a 10 but could have worn a 10.5.

Beautiful, white, dress shoe by J Renee. I am only returning it because I already have a pair just like it in navy, taupe, and black. I decided to get the peekaboo-toe dress shoe in white by J Renee instead!

36 yo female size 9-9.5 with moderate bunions. I ordered 9.5 wide width. Overall fit was perfect. Wore once so far, with very light walking and had heal rubbing causing break in skin. Otherwise very comfortable! Simple and attractive. Flattering on foot with complete toe and toe cleavage coverage. I wore with a knee length dress, but would look great with slacks too.

I bought these for a pop of color, and a low stylish heal. I was happy to find they are cushioned inside and have a grippy rubber sole. These will be perfect for a convention day.

I bought these shoes for my daughter's upcoming wedding and they were perfect with my dress. However they were on the small side especially in the toes so will be ordering next size up.

I am extremely challenged in the shoe department. I can't wear flats because my toes cramp and I can't wear heels because of neck & back issues. I need a 1" heel. Flexibility of the soul is important to me and I like some cushion or the pounding on hard surfaces creates another problem. While these shoes aren't sexy cute, they aren't frumpy looking either. They have a nice sheen that dresses them up and the silver trim on the heel adds some style as well. I'm planning to wear them to a dinner party. I wore them around the house for a few hours and I thought they were the most comfortable closed-toes shoe (other than low heel boots) that I've ever had. I think for comfort and fashion, this is as good as it gets.

Cute shoe but it didn't fit my foot well. I need a bit more structure in the instep area.

this is a beautiful shoe, but it is very narrow across the vamp. I have two other pairs of this brand in a B width and they are fine. I ordered this in a wide and thought it would be fine, but Sorry it is not

This shoe is beautiful for special occasions - obviously a bit much for everyday wear (gold) but really very pretty and it is very comfortable, fits well, nice heel. And of course, as always, ZAPPOS is the bomb for shoe delivery!! Thank you Zappos for always bringing a smile!

Feels good and I like that the heel isn't too high, but who wants a gold accent? I think it limits the shoe too much. It is going back.

LOVE these shoes! Bought the blue and gold sparkle. The heel was the perfect height. Fit great. Absolutely gorgeous! Many compliments were received. Would definately buy in another color.

Love these shoes as they fit well. They are dressy yet the heel is low enough for comfort with my injured ankle. It's hard to find shoes that meet my requirements and these shoes are great.

Great shoe feels good on and can keep them on all day. This brand runs small so order half size up. Looks great on a very smart looking shoe.

I lied the shoes. They are very dressy yet comfortable. Good to wear at a wedding!

A dressy shoe without a high heel! What a winner! These are comfortable, true to size shoe with style in their sweetheart vamp.

Beautiful Shoe. Received a couple of days after order. Love Zappos!!

Keep in mind that I do not normally wear ladies dress shoes. I get that the style is a little pointier at the toes due to fashion, but they need to then measure the proper length of the shoe stopping short of the total length of the shoe, if that makes sense. I normally wear an 11.5 narrow, and sometimes an 11. I ordered a 12 medium (not narrow!) and this shoe fits like a size 10, maybe 10.5, and it's narrow. So if you are reading this and think "of course it's too small, of course it's too narrow, that's just the way dress shoes fit," then ignore this review. But if you are like me and expect dress shoes to fit like other shoes fit (I'm not talking about sneakers here; I'm talking about leather booties or regular leather shoes), then heed my advice and order two pairs: one a full size larger than normal (and if you are a narrow, forget ordering that) and one two full sizes larger than normal. And good luck. Oh, and I ordered "dove gray" but there is nothing gray about this shoe. It's ivory with gold trim - which is fine because it looks exactly how it looks online.

too wide otherwise okay.

The shoes are very cute but they were too tight/too small on my feet.

Nice classic shoe & great quality for the price. The WW width fit more like tight W. I would order again if they offered a wider toe box. I have ordered shoes of the same brand that do run true to width. Keep trying!!

The size and fit are amazing. The material is stylish and classy.
