I love this brand!
This review is for the C.Paravano Women's Mary Jane Flats | Almond Toe Flats for Women | Leather Ballet Flats with Strap | Fashion Comfortable Work & Casual Shoes for Daily Wear,Walking.So I LOVE this brand and have several pairs in diff dtyles at this point! I'll grab them every chance I get. These are really cute mary jane style little flats with the single strap. They come in several color choices, I got them in the coffee brown. This particular shoe/color has a shiny patent leather finish and a rounded toe point box. For my feet they're very comfortable and a great fashion choice whether casual or dressy. These are very well made frooom the materials, to the hardware, stitching is perfect throughout, nice soft insoles, these are narrow shoes. I have small narrow flat feet, if you have wide feet, need padding/arch supports the may not be the best choice or try sizing up 1/2 a size? Regular price $ 138.00 per the listing, on sale $ 124.20 right now and there's also a 10% off coupon!

Perfect stylish flat Mary Jane footwear.
This brand shoe really pays attention to detail, fashion, style and oh my goodness comfort. Love that I can wear them anywhere, anytime, anyplace. I’m comfortable, I can wear them without socks. They go with every outfit. They are the greeting to a letter. The opening walking in and they make such a nice statement, completing each look. They do get more comfortable over time and wearing them. It’s like they capture the mood of your foot and say gotcha. I get compliments form these all the time. Better touch of classy meeting chic. Staying with the fashion while looking polished and refined. So refreshing to have a trusty footwear that you know always produced excellent footwear that gives off style and comfort. Definitely worth the value.

They're.... fine.
Let's do a little math so you know how I got to these 3.5-ish stars:> 5 stars for style. I love the silver! Love the patent color. Absolutely LOVE the rhinestone buckle. Love that the mary jane style is middle-aged appropriate (cool without being too cool, you know?)> 3 stars for comfort. They're narrow, they're stiff, I'm still wearing the bandaids from the bilsters I got wearing these to work.> 3 stars for value. They're plastic? They're hard. They're pleather. They're not worth the $120+ price tag.I want to love these shoes. Just look at them. They're stylish and adorable. Classic and modern. They're old money, quiet luxury.BUT. There are two big sticking points - 1) they're not real leather. They're a weirdly stiff but also flexible plastic. You can smell the plastic when you take them out of the box. If you're old enough to remember a Payless Shoe store, the smell of these shoes will take you back there. 2) I wasn't going to let some pleather stop me from wearing them. I just said how much I love the look.... but they're so uncomfortable. They're narrow, The "leather" is weird, they've rubbed the skin off the back of my heels. The inside has rubbed my little toes the wrong way (literally).Listen, they're cute, but they're not really worth the price. You can do better.

Perfect, comfortable silver flats! Dress them up or down.
I was hoping for the price of these shoes the quality wouldn't disappoint...and they sure didn't! From the soles to the straps, the materials and assembly was top notch. The style is modern and the shoe has a nice point to them. These are something you could use to dress up or dress down. The silver has a chic look, not too shiny or tacky looking. The one issue I personally have with the shoe is the small buckle to secure the strap. I'm not into very flashy things like bejeweled items — ironic as I'm reviewing an all silver Mary Jane. I didn't realize the buckle was a bit "blingy" and alongside the silver it was a bit much. I think because I wanted to be a casual shoe the combo was too much for me. However, it's a little detail and I'll still love to wear them. If someone likes shiny details, this is a great choice. The shoe seems to be durable due to the high quality, and they fit my feet just right — there is no chafing on the heel which is a plus. The company supplies some padding for the heel if this does become a problem for you which is a nice addition. Overall, I think these were a great find. While the price is a bit steep I found the quality made up for it.

Elegant, Effortless, and Worth Every Cent — The Perfect Leather Ballet Flat
These Mary Jane flats are the perfect polished touch for just about any outfit. The almond toe shape adds a subtle elegance, and the adjustable ankle strap makes it easy to get a secure, comfortable fit. I’m usually between a size 10 and 11, and since 10.5 is hard to come by in most flats, I took a chance on the size 41—and they fit just right.The quality is impressive. The leather feels supple and well-made, and the overall design looks far more expensive than the actual price. At around $140, these are a fantastic value. It's rare to find a flat that delivers on comfort, style, and fit—and I somehow managed to find all three on the first try. These are an easy favorite in my wardrobe already.
