Wedges... a summer staple and a summer statement if you pick the right one. I clearly have not stopped thinking about these. Not only are there hundreds of different styles everytime I pass a shoe store (and I have one two blocks from my house- so give or take, twice a day), but my boss seems to have a different pair for every day of the week and then some. So despite the fact I've accumuluated a couple throught the last two summers, I still have a lot of catching up to do. And this summer, I think this is a necessity-- and you know how needy I can be. So I've been tiredlessly searching for my pair of wedges and fallen in love with a few as well as purchased a couple already (I can't help mysefl) and a lesson I learned is to have in mind what you wish to achieve from these shoes in correlation to your summer wardrobe. What do I mean? What colors will you be wearing the most and how will you like to match your shoes to them. I believe a nude pair is extremely necessary. If you are bold, go for a double/triple colored wedged and if not, just go for a bold bright color that still turns some heads. And if you are like me, a person that might be spending 45 minutes walking to and from work, consider height. A comfy wedge can go a long, long way... or so I've heard (still searching for mine).
In any case, here are some great ideas that might rock your boat and, as a special treat, guess which pair I just purchased and you will be entered in a raffle to win a $30 gift card so you can get yourself your summer staple or at least quasi get yourelf one-- courtesy of me, myself and I! (Just comment with your guess and leave your email or best way to contact you. Ends Friday, June 8th)
