Well, the pewter brulees arrived, and I'm afraid that they may not work for me. The toe area is a bit narrow, and one of the straps hits right across the bunion on my right foot - not comfortable. I'm going to wear them around the house a bit and see if they stretch out at all. If not, I'm going to be disappointed, as they are really cute.
This is the same reason that I can't wear most ballet flats. I guess it's time to look at having that surgery, but I never can seem to find a "good" time to do it. When I had it on my other foot, it was quite a long recovery period.
