René Caovilla silver swarowski crystal embellished cage pumps, EU41

Do you like sparkly things? René Caovilla is well known for their sparkly and bling-embellished shoes, but this pair of caged pumps might just be the sparkliest. Cage strapped uppers alternate metallic silver satin with Swarovski crystal encrusted suede for a shoe that is literally dazzling to behold. In combination with the signature silver glitter soles, these shoes are not for the shy. These are the shoes you wear to a red-carpet event, or a fancy wedding (possibly as the bride) or just about anywhere super posh and black tie. This is a James Bond movie casino date type of shoe. This is the ultimate fairycore mithril, I am Galadriel, the dark queen, ALL SHALL LOVE ME AND DESPAIR type of shoe. They are a work of fine art and craftsmanship, and I don't believe they've been worn more than a couple of times at most. Minimal scuffing on the soles, a couple of barely visible scuffs on the satin, and slight marking of the insoles at the toe area. There are a couple of tiny crystals missing - mostly at the ends of straps where it's not noticeable, and there's just so much sparkling already. They are size 41, and they're just a smidge loose on me, so they should be fine for sizes 9.5 to 10. Heels measure 4.75", offset by a .75" platform, making this pair more comfortable for walking around than the average red carpet shoe.
