I'm 5'2 and usually a size 6 US shoe. I bought 6.5 here due to the measurements/size guide provided. They are a bit roomy, though, that's how I like it as I always wear insoles (which I would recommend for these shoes as there isn't padding on the sole) or if I wore thicker socks. I really enjoy how these look and believe they are a wonderful alternative to Demonias (which are a few hundred dollars. I got these on sale for about $50 and I love them. The buckles are adjustable, there are four notches on each buckle (on each side as well). Was a but tricky to tighten them down to the smallest one but didn't take too long once I got used to it. Had no issues with anything, honestly. No funky smell when taken out of the box, nothing broken or torn, the sewing looks nice, material looks great. After being worn the shoes will stand up on their own as well.This will be updated if I encounter any issues. But so far, they are awesome. Platform is also 2 and 1/4th inch, and heel is about 4.5 inches, and they come up to an inch/inch and a half below my knees.
