Customer Reviews Dolce Vita Kara

Ilove these shoes...however, they do run small. I am normally a 7 or a 7.5. I ordered the 7.5 and my toes were at the very end!! Plus the toe box was tight too. I am ordering the 8 to see if it works better.

These boots are exactly what I expected. My troubling narrow heels makes the back of the shoe lift a bit as I walk, but that is a fixable problem. I also have enough room to wear an ankle sock once the weather cools here. For you're debating whether to buy these bad boys, let me be the voice that votes yes!

LOVE these! Super comfy and practical- but very stylish. Fit true to size. A tad narrow.

A friend had these on and they were so cute. So I asked her if they were true to size and comfy. I trusted her and ordered them and absolutely am thrilled with them. Adorable and I get lots of compliments!

I absolutely love these booties! They are right on trend with the perforated leather. I bought the taupe which will be a perfect neutral for early spring when I am tired of my dark toned booties and looking to lighten up my look. They look best with no socks due to the design element on the side. Even peds show through.

I just got these as a gift and love them! I was originally searching for a grey version of this bootie, but the Taupe Netback actually has a slightly grey hue to it - it definitely doesn't look as tan as in the video. I love the detail and design on these. The shoes are comfortable, but I did have to order a size 7 after the 7½ (my usual shoe size) slipped off the back of my heel, even with the buckle tightened. The size 7 slips just barely, but I think that it is the style of the casual bootie. I am wondering if the Anthracite is more black or purple hued in person since the Taupe was a bit grey. That may be a reason to get both! Overall a cute and versatile shoe that is stunning!

Super cute and stylish. Only negative, they're long and the back lifts up when you are walking.

Loved the style but the toe box was too narrow

These shoes were comfortable out of the box. They are on trend for spring and go with virtually everything. However I am giving them a 4 star rating because you have to undo the buckles to get them on or the straps start to tear. Thankfully I have a mother who is good at sewing and was able to fix the one stitch which had undone.

These are super cute boots. I thought I should have ordered a half size smaller, but I am not sure how the length would have worked out. Even though they were a little big, I did not have a problem walking around town and on cobble streets.

Cute bootie. Neutral color that goes with everything. Very comfortable.

I loved this bootie!! I am normally a 10, sometimes a 10.5. And this 10 was just too small. Super sad! I contemplated ways to try to make them work, but I knew my toes would never forgive me. Sad they don't make a 10.5 or even an 11 (at least I could stuff insoles in shoes that were too bid, but can't get around being too small!!)

Adorable, sexy bootie/shoe! love these - pretty comfortable, too. The perforated flat leather is on trend - they are very small perfs, no skin showing through. Feels more like a shoe. This bootie doesn't take a sock - no socks - because of the low cut out part with the buckle. I tried the no show minimal sock liner - but that too showed on the sides - which ruins the cute look. So if you love your socks - maybe not for you. The buckle lands a just at/slightly below ankle bone. To reduce a bit of heel slip I tried tightening the buckle to the max - but this made the metal part hit my ankle bone - so that wouldn't work - it would give a blister or a scrape. That being said - this is a really pretty bootie for spring/summer. I purchased the taupe for that reason - but think the saddle leather would be great.

Stunning, comfortable boots! Beautiful, rich color on this shoe too. My only concern is that my heel slips out of the back of this shoe. I ordered one size down to try and fix this problem but the shoe was too tight and my heel continued to slip. Went back to my size 8 and placed a heel grip in back to solve the problem. Thanks for carrying Dolce Vita's shoes Zappos. YOU rock! :)

Really cute shoe -loved the styling but the toe box was way too tight and the heel slipped up and down when walking. I had to return them.

I can only say that i usually wear a 9 or 9.5 and the 9.5 was too small, so I had to return them. I am disappointed they don't have a 10, because otherwise I thought the shoes were great.

I have a narrow foot, and my heel pulls up when I walk.

I wear dolce vita shoes often and love them. I agree with other reviwers that although these boots are very on-trend and cute, their fit is off. I got the same size I usually do and they don't fit because they are long in the heel, making it impossible to keep them on my feet. I am certain if I get a smaller size, they will be too small in the front part of the boot.

Pretty shoe, i wear a solid 7.5 and 8 was too big, so don't go bigger like other reviews suggested. Wasn't anticipating the intentional smudge marks on the leather, didn't love that look.

These are very cute but not very comfortable. The toe box is narrow and the heal is loose. Sending them back.

To be honest, this shoe was frustrating for me. I bought my normal size 9 (i also tried an 8.5 which was too narrow and small) but with in a few wears the shoe is basically unwearable as it has stretched so much, also VERY wide in the heel. Too bad because its cute. Also I found the color to be off. I thought it would be great neutral but there is a strong blush tone to it and its just not proven to be as versatile as I had hoped. even after adding an orthotic and a cushion on the front of the shoe to take up room but sadly this was not my best purchase.
