				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks y'all! I think I like the smaller size better. Once my foot gets back to normal I'll trod around the house in both pair so I can compare.&#060;br /&#062;
Thanks Kate. I was pretty miserable, but that nail polish color always makes me smile. It's Sephora by OPI's &#034;Lost Without My GPS&#034; which is more perfect than you'll ever know. O:)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;They look pretty much the same to me.  I would wear them around the house for a while and see which feels better.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I'm glad you're feeling better after the ant attack!  That picture is priceless - it makes me want to give you a hug, and I get a kick out of how your happy nail polish color contrasts with the not so happy look on your face.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I vote the smaller size as well.  Have you been able to walk around in them to get an idea of slippage?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I vote smaller shoe, but one caveat, do your feet puff up in the summer?  I find my feet swell by the end of the day, so the sandals I try on in cooler weather usually are too tight/small fit wise when actually used during our hot summers. (If it's already hot there then this point is mute).  What a reaction, goodness!  Glad you are ok though!  Pesky ant!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sarah, I often find that my toes don't reach the tip in sandals, especially when my foot is relaxed (not engaged while standing or walking, but just kind of dangling there or resting while I sit). I don't think it's something most people notice though. Some people just have shorter or straighter toes than others. Better than the alternative, I guess (toe overhang, yuck!).&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;To me both pairs look fine. The smaller pair are only marginally better. I'd let comfort be the guide.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Hope you are feeling better!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I prefer the slightly smaller shoe I think; just a matter of whether your toes feel happy in the caged part up front.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;The one on the right looks like a slightly better fit, but what really matters is which is more comfortable? I really think you cant go wrong either way....but my preference is the one on the right. Glad to hear you recovered from that trauma!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Okay, ladies, here are the 6.5's and 7s side by side. I can only tell a very subtle difference. So which &#034;foot&#034; do you prefer?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I agree, Janet. Heels hanging off the back or toes off the front is not a look I'm going for. O:)

&#060;p&#062;It looks like you have room in the toe area, but I don't think that's a deal breaker if the shoe feels fine on your foot. I find that I can sometimes wear a slightly smaller than usual size in sandals, but I watch to make sure my toes don't hang off if my foot slides forward. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I just cringe when I see women walking around with their heels spilling out of the back of a sandal.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have encountered them before, Cilleena, which is why I was shocked I had this extent of a reaction. My first encounter I was watering the lawn and realized too late I was STANDING on a mound.&#060;br /&#062;
I think I&#034;ll see if I can find these down a size and compare. I'm happy with the size 7s, but I want to know 100% they're the right size.  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-biggrin icon-emoticon-biggrin "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think the shoes look great.&#060;br /&#062;
Sarah did the Dr prescribe something for you to use immediately if you get bit again. If not please ask. I've had some nasty reactions to those little things.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Poor foot!  I remember those nasty, little fire ants from when I lived in SC.  Burning and itching like crazy.  I didn't have the other allergic reactions you had.  Is this your first encounter with fire ants?&#060;br /&#062;
Back to the sandals,  they look great to me.  Do they feel ok?  You've definitely got half a size of length left in the toe, but if they are a little narrower in the toe area, it will just fit that way.  10 pairs of sandals?  Wow.  I got by on 2 pairs last summer, too.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;No input, but watching with interest. I have the opposite issue, though: long toes. Keeping an eye on the thread to see how sandals are supposed to fit.  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'm the same way, Mo! Same sizes even. But occasionally I need to go down to 6.5 on sandals...

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sarah, you may have a similar foot as mine - I have shorter toes.  So in closed shoes I wear a 7 1/2 but in open sandals I'm often a 7.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Angie, I did order the other DVs! They're quite lovely, but I'm hoping they'll stretch a little around the ankle. I'll take photos of those once my foot shrinks back down. I need input on them as well.&#060;br /&#062;
They are very different for me than these DV's for Target. I consider these a casual shoe and the other one is more dressy. I went last summer with only two pair of sandals, and I'm not making that mistake this time around!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Cute sandals! Do you think the angle of the heel will cause your foot to slide forward? If so, I think they are probably fine. I prefer a bit of room over seeing toes hang off the edge. Just my 2 cents. I'll, of course, defer to the experts : )

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'm starting to stock up on sandals and I would love some input on how these sandals fit.&#060;br /&#062;
In the first two photos, I don't have my weight on the shoe, in the third, I do. Do I need to try one size smaller or is this how the toe is supposed to fit? IE: Is the shoe too long in the toe area?&#060;br /&#062;
Thanks!&#060;br /&#062;
PS: I'm sorry the photos aren't the best. In photo three you can see my rather red and swollen foot due to an unfortunate encounter with a fire ant yesterday. I found out I'm highly allergic. Within ten minutes I was suffering an allergic reaction that included heart burn, sneezing, swollen red eyes, among other not so pleasant things. I'm better today after a visit to the doctor and other than puffy eyes and an itching/burning foot I'm back to normal.
&#060;/p&#062;
