text: Loved my first pair of these slippers, but this pair has much wider straps that make it less flattering than my first pair, which must be a discontinued style. I purchased &#34;brown&#34;, and it's so dark, I thought they mistakenly sent me &#34;black&#34; and wanted to return them, but they are brown...like coffee. Also, the straps have unsightly stitching that make the straps sit flatter, in addition to being wide - not feminine. Its saving grace is the foot bed - still dreamily soft and cushy so I won't return them but will be careful about ordering my third pair when the time comes and pay attention to the strap details..
