So I was wanting the pair without the buckle - but couldn't find them. So I searched for these and still had no luck. We walked in Dillards Friday evening and he said - look at these shoes, there very pretty. This shocked me because usually he doesn't say anything about shoes unless I ask for an opinion. I turned around to see him holding this shoe in black! I tried them on, a little scared of the height of the heel and fell in love. Needless to say I know what one of my gifts will be!!!
