I'm looking at these gorgeous Cayannes, but the heel height has me concerned.&nbsp; How low would you estimate the heel could be taken? <a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/paul-green-cayanne-leather-peep-toe-sandal-women/3908783">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/pa.....en/3908783</a></p> <p>Thanks for your thoughts!&nbsp; xo </p>
