Review: Glossy ankles

What: Glossy leather ankle strap pumps by J.Crew

When: Winter 2016

How (Material): Leather upper and lining, man-made sole

Why (Pros):

1. Look: Clean ankle straps with rounded toes. Very classic!
2. Comfort: Very comfortable.
3. Quality: Good quality leather upper and lining.
4. Sizing: True to size, with a little room but not enough to size up in my opinion.
