I've been admiring all your cool Gucci shoes so I decided to buy a pair. I've been so confused because I like so many! I finally narrowed it down to these two. I love flowers and I love anything sparkly!! Big decision!

After much contemplation I bought the flower princetowns! I love them! Can't wait to wear them. They feel so fresh and different from my normal ballet flats and boots.

I went into gucci today and I tried on the ghost princetowns in a 40. I'm a 39.5 but I have really wide feet and they fit although I had too much room at the front like my foot could have been more towards the front of the shoe if that makes sense. I'm glad I tried them though because they are not for me. I'll wait for the sling backs though as I think they will fit my foot better! I'm also now looking at the Brixton loafers as well and was wondering if they are the same fit as the princetowns? As in did you guys get the same size in both shoes?

The Brixton loafers fit the same way as the Princetowns, BUT it is worth noting that the Brixton is made with lambskin, a much softer, more forgiving leather, than the calfskin on the Princetown and Jordaan. I heard that the slingbacks are lambskin as well, btw.

They do look softer! I was comparing the photos on the gucci website back and forth between the jordaan and the brixton and the brixton looked softer. It's so hard when you aren't able to try on the shoe so it makes ordering these online more tricky.

I have the Jordaan embroidered mules/slippers and love them. It took a little while for me to break them in, but now they're quite comfortable and have become my go-to dressy summer flat. I've ordered the Jordaan loafers in the same pattern and am curious to see how they fit given the posts above. I also have the Gucci "frame" loafers -- so comfortable. Gucci makes fantastic loafers, I plan on buying at least two more pairs this season.

Do you wear the same size in slipers and loafers? Which one do you think more comfortable?

Yes, 39.5 in both. I also wear the same size in their slip-on sneakers. I almost bought a pair of the Gucci Ghost slip-on sneakers but decided to think a bit. I wish they had done them with black or blue material around the sides of the shoe instead of white. I don't like to wear sneakers with white trim in fall/winter.

Totally agree with the color choice
With some other items like dress,skirt,accessories etc they use red and beige color as well but not so many
I wish they made more shoes in this combination
Thanks for answering my question

I still don't know what to do about sizing! I've read TTS, size up AND size down???
I'm considering leather, no fur.
Also, does anyone wish these were less popular? I see them so much on blogs etc-even though I've only seen them once or twice where I live.

I'd suggest going true to IT size for leather no fur.
I have several pairs in furless calf leather and although I thought the half size up was slightly better for me when I first got them, I've let go of the pair that were half size up because they looked wide and sloppy after a couple of wears. If your foot is really narrow you may be able to go half size down but I wouldn't recommend it. The feeling on the foot is a bit strange at first, I think that gets many of us confused.
