This is the Exude from Carlos by Carlos Santana. It is a beautiful shoe. Per the manufacturer website it is a 3.75" stiletto heel (though some retailers are mislabeling it as 3.5") available in half a dozen colors.
This shoe is definitely pretty... but when I received it I was disappointed to have to return it. The retailer I purchased it from listed the shoe as a 3.5" heel, but of course... it is not. The heel ended up being too high for me even though I am quite used to wearing heels everyday, and the toe was too narrow. Had the heels indeed been 3.5” I probably would have kept the shoe and waited for the toe to stretch out… but alas, it wasn’t meant to be.
If you have narrower feet this may be a perfect shoe for you, and extremely stylish. If you purchase these I recommend also purchasing some no-slip pads to go on bottom of the shoe.
PS- As I was putting these back in the box to ship back to the retailer, I noticed one of the heels was missing a piece... turns out it fell out while I trying on the shoes and it was lying on the carpet in my dining room. Just one more sign that these weren't meant to be.
