CHÉRIE SANDAL 115

The ankle strap is surprisingly comfortable for a thin design, and the chunky heel gives me the height without feeling wobbly. I got so many compliments on the patent leather finish at a wedding last weekend.

The ankle strap is a bit fiddly to buckle one-handed, but once it's on, the fit feels secure and the chunky heel makes walking surprisingly steady. The gold buckle adds just the right touch of polish.

The platform gives just enough height without being uncomfortable. The patent leather really makes these sandals look dressed up, though I wish the buckle was a bit easier to adjust for a perfect fit.
