I've come to a recent realization that after two kids​,​ my days of 4" stilettos are over. However​,​ I still love beautiful shoes and wanted something professional and versatile that I could wear for multiple hours at a time. I figured I would give these block heels a try. Plus​,​ I saw Kate Middleton wear them for some event where she was probably standing around for hours.

I LOVE them. There's obviously a slight break in period but honestly it wasn't that bad at all. After a few days of wearing them for a couple of hours where they pinched at the toe box a bit​,​ I was able to wear it for the entire work day with zero discomfort. They obviously go with everything so incredibly versatile. These will be a wardrobe staple.

Note on sizing - I usually do 7.5​/​8; I figured for an Italian designer​,​ I should size up which was the right move. Highly highly recommend.
