I got the pink shoes in the mail yesterday!!! I love them! They're totally cute.  The 8.5 definitely fit better.  The 8s fit, but the back of the heel rub my ankles a bit. Even though they feel ok, I think they may bother me after a bit of time, so I'm going to stick with the 8.5s.  The only bummer is that there's a little spot on one of the 8.5s where the leather was nicked and you can see the material underneath.  It's very small though.  I might try to cover it up somehow.  I doubt anyone will get close enough to see it though.  Thanks for your help and for sharing your shoes with me! lol.

That's great that you love them! Are you sure the little nick won't bother you? It probably wouldn't bother me in the grand scheme of things, but if I paid $40 for them then I'd want them in perfect condition. It might be worth it for you to return both and get another 8.5, but that's totally up to you! I'm glad that you were able to find shoes that you love - they are great shoes!

The nick is on the edge of the bow right next to the knot.  It's really small and in an inconspicuous, so I think it'll be okay.  It's tiny.  I only paid $25 actually! It was $50 for both pairs, and it'll cost me $8.50 to send the one pair back.

Oh, wow! You got a great deal. Mine were $39 + shipping, so it came to about $45 for 1 pair!

Yea... all around I got lucky!  I'm surprised I was still even able to find them in the first place!
