It's not easy to make this color of green lovely and sexy but they've managed it. I love the twist over the toes. The asymetrical sides give great arch cleavage. And the heel is a simple tall peg. But mostly the the amazing green apple color--I can almost taste the sour sweetness. I'd wear these with a dress just the right shade of pink if I was feeling bold or a linen dress if I wasn't.

Alyssa,
You are really getting into the heels lately!
Love these, they would be really awesome with a lime green suit, pencil skirt, and of course, very sheer or white sheer to the waist hose, or if you were being frisky, a twelve tab garter belt and nylons. Or better yet, the nylons over the STW pantyhose.
Don't forget the ankle bracelet!

I'm not sure if the previous comment is just trying to be sarcastic or if she's serious, but hose should NEVER be worn with open toed shoes. NEVER. No excuses. Also, the nylons with garter belt over the STW pantyhose is just wrong and ankle bracelets should be outlawed - at least with people who have good taste...
Just my opinion...other than that, these shoes are cute!

nothing beats a great pair of hose on legs. The hose blends out the imperfections. Plus, and more importantly, different types of hose have dramatic impacts on the tone of the outfit. From demure pastels to the darker tones, textures, seams or fishnets. They all add that special something.
Hose on top of hose adds a certain depth to the look also. Not to mention that there is something about the veiled look of the toes in the hose-provided that the toe seam is straight and slightly below the tips of the hose. Something that a fashionable woman needs to pay attention to when she dresses, no different than putting on her makeup.
As for ankle bracelets, you love 'em or you don't. Why overlook an opportunity to wear more precious metal and draw attention to the feet and shoes.
Nice series of shoes anyway. I'm just plain tired of nicely dressed wome wearing shower thongs on their nicely groomed feet.
