So many times I like to tell you all about things I find, but never actually give you a review of the product. This time I decided to actually review the patent pump above from Forever 21 for all of you.

For anyone that knows me or has seen my closet, you know that I am definitely a shoe connoisseur.  I typically don’t buy “cheap” shoes, however, Forever 21 has been the exception.  This is now my 3rd Forever 21 shoe that I have purchase and could not be any more happy.  You would think finding a simple round toed pump with a platform and ankle strap would be easy, but it isn’t.  Well, unless you wanted to drop a half grand for a pair, which I was not willing to do for such a simple shoe.  I stumbled upon these on Forever 21’s website and was shocked to see it say 5″ heel.  I thought for sure it was a typo, but sure if enough after receiving them in the mail, I was amazed that they truly were 5 ” heels!  Not only was the heel height amazing, but the quality in general was pretty nice. The patent leather makes it easier to play off leather better than the matte faux leather.  The shoe fits perfectly and with the platform, it makes it very comfortable to walk in.  The only part of the shoe I don’t like is the lack of cushion, but then again what do you expect in a $22 heel?  Anywho, I definitely love this shoe and the best news is, it looks like most Forever 21 shoes are now 5″ high.
