As mentioned previously, I wasn't looking for something in nude or black. I wanted something different but still suitable for everyday wear. Ron Ron is the perfect classic style that can be worn day and night. Tan is a great neutral and goes with most of everything in my closet.
Height: The height of these shoes (90mm - 3.5 inches) is just a bit taller than the Ann Taylor perfect leather pumps (3 1/4 inches) which I wear almost everyday. Compared to the New Simple 120, they are much more comfortable and manageable.

Texture: What attracted me to these shoes was the fun texture. At first I wasn't sure what "watersnake" means. I asked a sales associate at Saks and he said it just meant leather stamped in snake texture. It certainly gives this beautiful pair a very interesting look.
Sizing: According to the description, this particular style runs a half size smaller. After my first experience with Christian Louboutin, I knew I would need a 37. I went with a 37.5 this time and they fit me perfectly.
At last, my search has ended! I am head over heels in love with these shoes. They are practically as well as fun. I can't wait to pair them with my future outfits =)
Have a great week!

Gorgeous Sydney! So happy for u! I agree about making sure these are practical for everyday wear otherwise they will just sit in the box:)
Congrats! They are so pretty! Classics with a lovely twist. :)
those are really interesting, with the raised up 3D scales. i think i would personally opt for a boring pair of nude CLs but you found a very unique pair!
These are gorgeous Sydney! Enjoy your first pair of CLs and I love that you got an exotic skin pair :)
Gorgeous shoes!
Yay! Congrats on your first pair (again), Sydney! The texture definitely sets it apart from the popular black and nude pairs we always see. : )
Much better! Im glad you found a pair that fit better! All his styles fit differently. These are absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations!

@Elaine A (TOBeautyReviews) Elaine, I actually thought about you when I wrote this post. I totally understand why you liked the first pair better =)
you got a gorgeous pair. the "watersnake" is unique indeed.
awesome choice!
wow love it Sydney! I bought my first Loubies last year but had to return it because I didnt love it ! So glad to see you found the "right" pair for you!
Gorgeous, I really love the texture of it. I am always drawn to CL due to their unique red soles but have not pulled the plug yet. Maybe one day =)
I may be incorrect, but my understanding of watersnake is that is actually a very inexpensive snake that is often used to make "exotic" skin products that are more affordable than, say, python or anaconda. I do have a python bag and the scales on your shoes look authentic to me, but I only have one pair of snakeskin shoes and I'm no expert. If I were you, I'd double check, because if they are snakeskin they need to be treated differently to avoid curling and flaking. They're gorgeous, congrats!
Lovely shoes.
@Anonymous Thank you for taking the time and explaining. This is my first pair of snakeskin shoes so I am not 100% sure. I will have to do some research on that and see what I come up with. Thanks again =)
Oh I LOVE these! They are gorgeous, great buy. I can't believe I'm saying this but the price isn't "too" bad for exotics either - I love my python Loubs, they are by far my most special pair and your nude color makes them so versatile. Enjoy!
