Dolce Vita has become one of my favorite shoe brands because they have extended sizing in shoes and boots. As a size 12 - it's so helpful! I also love that they're great quality and made to last. Both shoes are true to size for me. I did measure my calves for the boots and ended up going with the regular calf boots. Lots of great shoes to choose from, though. I also have the mules and they're so comfortable LTKCyberWeek LTKShoeCrush
