1st purchase success

They finally came! I have been waiting anxiously for my purchase to come and they arrived after one day of shipment. That is only because the shoes shipped out from LA and I am in orange county, which is only 45 minutes away. The costumer service was really slow to notify me that the shoes were shipped, which was a bummer. On my account online, the shoes were still "processing." I wasn't able to see them right away because I got it sent to my parent's house, but when I came home for winter break today, I was beyond ecstatic. Ofcourse my mother would open the box already, so I did not have the joy of opening the package but I was still excited. There was a little ruined spot on the front of the suede, but I will not complain to costumer service because those shoes are "sold out."

On December 5th at around 1 am, I received a notification that the shoes I wanted, Jolly in Taupe, were back in stock. I did not hesitate and ordered my half a size bigger immediately. I woke my boyfriend up to give me the coupon code for $30 off my first purchase from jewelmint, and finished my purchase by 1:15 am. I do not know if I would have ordered the shoes as quickly as I did without the coupon code, because I was not sure about the quality of the shoes. I have been doing my research and looking at blogs for reviews but since the website is fairly new, only since Black Friday, there were not a lot of reviews online. Now that I have received my first pair, I will do a quick review on them.

The quality of the shoes is great. The suede feels like suede, and looks like suede. There is however a scratch on the front of the shoe, which is not so great. I am sure it was just my shoes, however. I looked inside the shoes to see the detailing and I could see little pieces of paper stuck into the soles, which was weird, but I am sure that is just my pair, hopefully. I listened to the website and ordered half a size bigger than my original size, which is a 6, and the shoes were a bit loose - not too loose, but not snug. I would have liked a more snug fitting because shoes stretch overtime. Overall, I am very pleased with my new purchase, and I cannot wait to see their January collection!
