So I recently purchased two pairs of TB patent Caroline flats (a long with some sandals) from their website. I had tried them on in the store several times, so I already knew that they run true to size in my case. The weird thing is that, before purchasing them, I was crazy about the Camellia Pink color and didn't care much for the black ones, but since I wanted to take advantage of the sale, I thought it wouldn't hurt to get both. However, after careful consideration I feel like the elastic part on the CP ones makes it look like I'm wearing those no-show socks with my flats. Does anyone one else agree with me?

Also, the back portion of the left shoe is much thicker than it's supposed to, so it hurts the back of my heel. I just know that this is recipe for blister disaster! This is so annoying because, should I decide to keep them, my size is no longer available on the TB website and I'd really like to do an even exchange since I got them on sale.

Otherwise, they're very comfortable right out of the box.

I guess my question is, if you had to choose one pair, which one would you keep? The black ones or the CP?

Believe it or not, I only have two pairs of black flats (three if you count the Caroline flats). And you're right, it's like day and night. Decisions, decisions.

I love both. They're so comfortable right out of the shoebox and they run true to size, probably because it's patent leather. They look so elegant and can dress up any outfit. The camellia pink is especially stunning but the black one is a staple. I've had so many compliments on both.

If I didn't already have 3 black pairs I would say black for sure. But since I do have 3 black pairs I'd have to say CP. Sorry, not much of a help.
