Crap. I want these shoes on zulily and there's no half sizes. I am an 8/ 8.5 now (a solid 8 pre preg)...
Do I order the 8 or the 9? I am small...5'4 and 125, I feel like 9s will look like boats!

I don't think I'd order non-returnable shoes online, unless it was a brand I've worn a LOT and familiar with their sizing.
But typically, my 7.5 skews to a 7 before an 8.

can you google and see how their sizing is?? maybe if they fit a bit big an 8 would work

For those shoes, a down since they have a sling back. Usually, I don't order shoes unless they are a perfect fit though. I don't think uncomfortable shoes are worth it at any cost and no matter how cute... they're useless if I can't walk around all day in them.

i think i'd go with 8 for those shoes -- there's a bit of give with the sling back hopefully it works out!!!

have you ordered them yet?!?! I love me some nude heels of all sorts....I wear a 6 usually but often go down to 5.5 for heels since your foot likes to sort of slip down to the front of the toe if it can in a high heel, so in your case I would order the 8's!

I'm going to go against the grain here and say I would size up. There is nothing sillier looking than a heel hanging off the end of a too small shoe, or toes that are so crammed into the end of open toes shoes, that you can see the circulation being cut off. As these have a strap that you can tighten, I'd go larger as you won't be walking out of them if you have the strap tight enough. Also, bear in mind that most women's feet get a bit wider following pregnancy (courtesy of the ligament loosening and feet spreading), so your toes might not be able to slide as far down into the shoe as they might have pre-preg.
Also, fwiw, I don't think your size will make a size 9 shoe look ridiculous. I know several people who are your size and wear size 9 shoes and look perfectly proportional!

I'd say 8.
I am also a 8/8.5 & am also 5'4" 126lbs and I could never do a 9. I've tried. At Steve madden's clearance, boy did I try...

I'm a 6.5 with wide feet. I can go up to a 7, but sometimes its not worth it because the back of my heel slips out.

I hate when people post stuff and are like, " OMG! Help me help me help me!" And then later they're like, "Oh yeah, I didn't end up doing that thing after all..."
But that's what I did here, lol. I saw that zulily doesn't even ship them for like eleventy billion weeks, and we move in 3 weeks so that won't work.
I am a member of JustFab and I ordered these in a good ol 8.5 instead!

@PrincessBaby: haha-- I didn't even notice the screen shot outing you until you said it! I'm always scared I'll do that at work! I always make sure to crop out hellobee and facebook
Oh and my feet are a 9 but can be slightly larger, so I would err on the side of bigger, but I also won't order non-returnable shoes, ever.

@PrincessBaby: Ohhhh I like both pairs but I'm glad you were able to get some in your solid size. And LOL to your screen shot
