"I have these in the natural color, size 9. The color is the perfect neutral shade and the shoes are very comfortable. I'm between an 8.5 and 9. Even though many of the reviews said they're TTS, I decided to go with a 9. All of my Dolce Vita shoes are a 9 because they tend to run a half size small, but this is the first pair of DV by Dolce Vita that I've owned. They actually do run TTS. I should have gotten an 8.5. I don't feel like messing with the exchange process, so I'm going to just keep the 9's. There is a slight smell to them, but I think it's just because they're wrapped in plastic. I expect the smell to go away after they've been sitting out for a while. That's what I'm hoping anyway. Overall, I love these shoes and I highly recommend them!"
