text: When I was looking to buy these from Burju I had planned to order the 2.5'' heels but I had trouble checking out on that website so I found the same shoes and ordered them on amazon without checking the heel hight.  The heels are just too high on these shoes and it made for a painful evening.  They are beautiful and perfectly matched the dress I was planning to wear to a friends wedding so I wore them and now I can't return them.  Also, the hight squishes my toes so that I lose a whole shoes size.  I am normally a size 8 but I ordered a 7.5 because I generally go down half a size for heels but I am still swimming in the 7.5!  Its too bad its so hard to find these in a local store because I really need to try them on to figure out the right size.
