For the back of the heel, you could try the product, Friction, that Septembersiren recommended to see of that relieved the slipping and rubbing. I have not worn my sandals enough for the backs to loosen, and I do not believe that they were stretched by my shoemaker. I, too, hope that the sandals will eventually conform to my foot, but if not, I will be giving them away rather than ruin my feet. Too bad, because they are such beautiful sandals.
So sad they are uncomfortable, they are so hot. I have big, wide feet and could never buy most designer shoes so I settle for the bags.

Hi..back to the ferro karung clutch..it is divine..and try holding it from the top, over the flap, thumb on backside and 4 fingers in front , at at an end, flap facing out..far less width to hold, and I noticed that on the BV website, the models wear this style that way..IMHO, of course

Thanks for you answer silvercloud!
I ended not buying them, as I was not very sure and I couldn try them on, so I spent the money in tons of Nars make up.

I hope next moth I will be able to be near a BV, and I will try some heels and flats so I can know my BV size.

But BV shoes sure are gorgeous :)

Thank you, ReRe and bunny

newbaglover: Oooh...Nars makeup is always worth it! I love the eyeshadows and blushers. So nice. If you are near a BV store, do try all the shoes available as I realize the sizing for me changes for different styles. True to size for the flats sandals and ballerinas, and 1/2 size up for the heels. Then again, if the cut changes, the size will change too.

prestwick: Thank you for the tip. I will try that next time. I have taken to just tucking it under the arm or elbow, instead of holding it in the hands.
