I Like It & Men Like It You look very sexy in those shoes (that was I was told by several men) and fits true to size and I stand at least 2 to 3 hours and I have no complains. Thanks.
LOVE! wish I could afford 3 pair! I ordered the nude patent and the mink suede and I really wish I could afford to keep both. I was expecting the mink to be a very light beige but it was actually a very light gray that is absolutely beautiful. And the nude patent is the PERFECT nude color (in my opinion). These shoes are the perfect height, great fit, and really quite comfortable. At least as comfortable as you could expect from a pointy toe 4 inch heel with no cushion. I LOVE these shoes.
A sexy, classic shoe These are really the PERFECT pump. They are comfortable enough for everyday wear but they are also just a tiny bit sexy - they instantly glam up an outfit, even though they are simple. I also like their similiarity to the Manolo BBs. I was gifted a pair of the black patents and loved them so much I also bought a pair of the brown suedes. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another color if they went on sale, either. And contrary to the misguided and irrelevant commentary of the previous poster (have you even bought the shoes? why review shoes you have not purchased?), they ARE made in Italy.
Love these shoes! I own 3 pairs of the Licorice now in black suede, black patent and camel patent and I plan to buy more too! I love these shoes, they are so classic, feminine and the heel height is perfect for me. They look very Manolo BB pump like but at half the price. Who does not love that! The camel is perfect for spring dresses to work, church, etc.
VaVaVoom The previous reviewers were correct, these shoes are GORG IE! I love them. In a previous pre kid kinda life, I lived in heels. Post kiddo, I live in flats and Converse and have a tough time finding great heels that fit well and are comfortable to wear for a night. I bought both 7, my "true size", and a 7 1/2 just to see what worked and the 7 1/2 was the right one. The mink color is more light gray than beige, but they are a great neutral and add a kick to the traditional nude heels. What mom wouldn't look great running after her crazy kid in a parking lot wearing these?
Nice color, a little tight in the toes These are nice work shoes, good neutral color. kate spade isn't what it used to be - the quality/price ratio is out of whack but sale prices might make more sense. These won't last very long most likely - especially if worn every day.
Beautiful shoes but not for me These were the first Kate Spade pair I've ordered and I was pleasantly surprised. The shoes are very well made and they're overall beautiful ... classic heel with sexy pointy toes and a nice camel color. I was looking all over for a classic nude heel and based on other reviews, I thought these would be perfect. Unfortunately, they were a bit tight on me in the toe area (and I have narrow feet), but more than that, the color wasn't right for me. I have pale skin and these shoes would be great for someone who is more tan. Otherwise, would have considered exchanging them for a half size larger.
Nice Shoes ---but too tight. Nice stiletto shoes, but run a little bit small. The leather may stretch as you wear these shoes, but I did not want to risk it, so I will send them back. Overall, these are nice shoes to wear for a couple of hours; not for 9-5 work + evening out.
Ehhhh... I've had these shoes for a while now, about a year. I wear them often. I got them for a really good price, definitely not worth more than two hundred. I love the style and the color of the shoe (I have it in linen). Could not be more perfect. But I keep finding myself disappointed with the quality of Kate Spade... The patent leather on the outside is starting to wrinkle a little; the back of the shoe was a little wrinkled when it was brand new. The leather inside the shoe in the front molds to your toes, and not in a good way. Very strange. Other friends have bought shoes from KS and had them fall apart. I probably won't ever buy a pair of KS again, unfortunately. Not worth the money.
Pretty shoe no doubt, but not worth the price tag These shoes are gorgeous and look great on your feet, but they are simply not worth it at this price, They're pretty flimsy, with no attempt at comfort whatsoever in the sole or with the way the leather cups your foot.
I love shoes and I don't discriminate: my buys range from ridiculous to good deals, and let me tell you that you can walk into any mall and find the same shoe of equal quality for less than half the price, which I plan on doing. Try again Kate Spade.
Perfect wedding shoes These are the most beautiful shoes I've ever owned. They are clearly well made, and the color is just stunning. These are going to be my "something blue" when I get married (they're probably more green than blue, but who cares!) I've walked around in them a bit, and they seem quite comfortable (and I am not a stiletto person). I cannot wait to wear them.
Beautiful The shoes are gorgeous and not to mention easy going. I only wore them twice before the wedding to break them in, and on the day of the wedding they were great. I did change into slippers around midnight, but I had been wearing them all day. So I recommend these shoes completely.
Love these shoes!! I recently purchased these to wear as my wedding shoes, and I LOVE them! The heel height is perfect, not too high. They are so comfortable. I ordered an 8.5 and they fit perfect. I usually wear between an 8-9. Highly reccommend!
perfect! these shoes will be great for my wedding, just what i was looking for! The heel height is not to high and not too short. Runs a half size larger. I normally wear a 6.5, but went with a size 6 and they fit perfectly!
Beautiful! These are beautuful shoes! I bought them for my wedding and I'm using them as my "something blue". I have slightly wide feet and usually wear a 91/2-10, and the 10 fit fine. The lower heel will make wearing them all day and night a lot easier!
Beautiful shoes! I bought the pewter shoes for my wedding in May. They are so beautiful! I did order a half size larger than I normally wear and they fit perfectly! I highly recommend these shoes! I love them!
Something blue These are gorgeous shoes and I can't wait to wear them for my wedding. I also ordered the gold color and returned those right away... nothing compares to this luxurious satin ... two thumbs up. based on others' comments I also ordered a 1/2 size up. I am an 8, ordered 8.5 fits great.
gorgeous, comfortable ... I thought the leather version ran true to size..I also ordered the satins (black and bronze) since I wasn't sure of the dress I was going to wear. The satins were a bit larger, so you might have to size down on those. They were all beautifully made for the $, stylish and comfortable. The rhinestone embellishment looked like an antiqued brooch, just the right amount of design. Highly recommend!!!
even more beautiful in person Can't wait to wear these shoes on my wedding day in 2012. Very hard to find wedding shoes that look great and are not too high. I purchased them in pewter grey which is the same color as the bridesmaid dresses. They seem like they will be comfortable so we'll see what happens on the big day. Either way, these shoes are too beautiful to say no to on your wedding day. Beautiful rhinestone embellishment will give my wedding dress that added sparkle and wow factor. Also, glad I listened to previous reviews about the ... running a half size small. I normally wear an 8.5 and I ordered 9 which fit perfectly. Can't wait to wear them!
Perfect wedding shoes Love. These. Shoes. I ordered several colors and eventually settled on the Cream for my wedding, but I cannot say enough great things about these. COMFORTABLE (forgot I had them on!), pretty, classy, and noticeable without being over the top. I received a ton of compliments, and they were my favorite item of the day. My tailor even took down the name of them to recommend them to other brides/maids. I would normally wear a slightly taller heel for an evening look, but these ended up to be perfect as they were comfortable, a breeze to walk in, but still gave my leg and bum some lift and shape for my fitted dress. The only watch out is that the crystal brooch detail may catch on the hem of your dress if it is long and more fitted/sheath. My dress did catch on them at times, but never enough to pull out the hem nor bother me all that much.
"PURFECT" - just what I WANTED!! First time I ever ordered shoes online and expensive ones to boot! The pewter colored ones arrived last night, [...] and when I opened the box my heart skippped a beat. Visually very beautiful and the embleshment on the toes is sparkly and just "PERFECT". I ordered a Size 6 which I do normally and found the length fit great, not tight or snug but the width to me especially across the knuckle of the big toe was tight on both shoes. I am afraid to order a half size up so I will have the top of the ... stretched. I will report back in a few days but I think that will do the trick. The heel height for me is "PERFECT" as I am first wearing these shoes for my daughter's wedding. I know I will be able to wear these shoes again to add that little special something to any outfit. Glad I spent the money!!
These shoes are great. They are very comfortable, the heel is not too short, you can still get some height and wear with dresses. I love the color and style and most of all they are good quality and don't look cheap.
Great shoes Great shoes. Pretty comfortable (I wear them at work all day) and look great. The black patent is gorgeous and I've gotten several compliments on them. The peep toe is perfect, without pinching or making your toes look weird. A bit of toe cleavage, if you care about that, but I think it looks fine. Love these shoes!
Classic ... Everyday I love these shoes! They are surprisingly comfortable and perfect for work, plus they are a pretty tall heel. I typically wear a 7 in heels and 7 1/2 in flats and I bought the 7 and it fit like a dream.
Finally! I have been hunting for the perfect closed toed ... wear with business attire. I am a mom of 2, working part time, so I really do not have tons of free time to go ... shopping! While these classic, beautifully crafted shoes are pricey, I am so pleased. They are tall for me (over 3"), but they are so lovely. I find that after a day of wear, they have stretched just enough to feel good. They do show the base of your toes (some others have noted that as a problem). I bought the powder patent color which works great with my fair skin and wears nicely with some of the reds in my wardrobe. Happy ... hunting!
TRUE to SIZE!!!! Beautiful! Based on a few reviews that said that the shoes run small, I got these in half size up in size 9, even though I usually wear size 8.5. However, they were too big! I am exchanging these with my true size 8.5. Otherwise, they are perfect and beautiful.
Long time fane of Kate Spade Karolina shoes This is my 4th pair of Kate Spade Karolina (I have a pair in yellow and in black and neutral ostrich print) - but my first purchase of them through Piperlime. I bought these in the Hot Coral Patent color. They are STUNNING!!! They are so neon and bright! Today is my first day wearing them and I have received so many compliments from people i work with and complete strangers. They are obnoxious for work without being unprofessional. Please note that the pictures of the shoes online don't show their real color. They are NEON glow in the dark bright coral orange kind of like that neon orange blacklight glow paint. However, I'm normally an 8.5 - but in all the Kate Spade Karolina shoes I have I'm an 8. Because 2 of my 3 are an 8, and the Ostrich is an 8.5 i knew to order half a size down. I will be back to order the black and nude ones when they go on sale!
Love! I had been searching for a pair of snakeskin shoes and found these. They are prettier in person! I've received many compliments and they are surprisingly comfortable.
Awesome Pumps! I absolutely love these pumps! I do agree that they run a half size small, so I prepared for that and bought the 9 in rasperry patent instead of my usual 8.5. These shoes fit perfectly. The are slightly on the wide side, but that only adds to the overall comfort. I wore these all work day and never had issue with comfort. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking for great, classic work pumps.
Great ... This is a perfect neutral high heeled ... camel color is not yellowish, which was my concern. While high, you can walk around in this ... round toe accommodates my wide foot. the patent leather work for both day and evening. I also have a pair in black satin. They are my go to shoes for evening and cover all the bases. Just love Kate Spade!
Just beautiful I LOVE these shoes. They look expensive because the leather quality is top notch. True to the Kate Spade aesthetic, they are classics, so you can expect to wear them for a long time. And best of all, they are very comfortable. The first day I wore them to work was great--no break in period needed. Now I've got to save up for more colors because I love these so much.
Great pump These shoes are great! Classic, well made, and surprisingly comfortable. Well worth the splurge as this ... never go out of style.
Mm...ok I do a lot of background searches before I buy any shoes online; lots of forums, reviews, etc. I heard great things about this ... saw these I fell madly in love immediately but was a tad bit let down. I found these shoes to be a little snug in the toe box and very "hard" walking (not much padding). Also the sides of the ... fell a bit lower than my other pumps which at first tended to cut into my foot especially close to the big toe :/ The color is amazing, a very spring season type of ... just something to add a little pop of color. There is quite a bit of toe cleavage but I think this also might depend on your toes. Overall, definitely an eye catcher but will need lots of breaking in.
Why does Piperlime not carry wides? Great ... but I cannot wear these because they are too narrow. I found them in wide elsewhere. No idea why they cannot carry wides--I mean it is not as if they are keeping the shoes in prime retail space. They're coming from some warehouse right?
