Brian Atwood Black Flame Cutout Suede Stiletto Pumps, 40.5, EUC

Seldom in life does a shoe come along that hits you like a bolt of lightning. This, for me, is that elusive twin flame of a shoe. It literally looks like black flames coming up from under your perfectly poised feet. If you require a secret weapon to draw attention to your legs while you're cloning your mark's phone, these are the shoes. These Brian Atwood black suede and clear pvc, very pointy stiletto pumps, are sporting a 3.75" heel and a clever upper design; one that creates the gorgeous illusion that slender black flames are barely clinging to your feet. Absolutely stunning on the foot. The size marked is 40 1/2, which I would normally expect to fit me, mostly. Not this time - my size 9.5 feet can barely fit, so walking in them was a nope. The footbed measures 11" but don't be fooled - this pair measures only 3" across the widest point, and they fit narrow. I believe these could work for a size 9.5, but only for those with narrow feet. Otherwise, size 9 or even a wider 8.5 should fit.
