Do You Have Any Wedges for Spring/Summer?

Wedges Are Great Summer Shoes

I don't know what it is about wedges, but they say it's summertime to me or summer is almost here at least. They go really well with summer fashions especially the Boho styles which are looking to be extremely popular this year. There are lots of different wedges available though so where to start?

Here are a few wedges I think will look great this summer -

Black and White Alexander Wang Open Toe Suede Paneled Leather Wedge Bootie with Bright Blue Accent
Alexander Wang Alla Open-Toe Suede-Paneled Leather Wedge Booties

These wedge booties by Alexander Wang are very on-trend this year as this summer looks set to be over-run with open toe booties!

I love the cutout wedge heel and the pop of bright blue suede at the back of the otherwise black and which neutral bootie.

I can see these being worn at the office as well as in the evening, not really a beach shoe though or even one to wear to a garden party, but still a useful addition to your shoe arsenal.

Alice + Olivia Jenna Pinstriped Leather Wedge Sandals

These Alice + Olivia wedge sandals are on my must have for summer list.   The monochrome pinstripes add an element of graphic cool to the classic wedge sandals.   Stripes are still in this season so these sandals will go beautiful with a range of interesting outfits.

If you're not a fan of the striped dresses or tops that seem to be everywhere at the moment you can use these sandals to add stripes to an otherwise 'plain' outfit and still seem on-trend.

These sandals work beautifully with a pair of cropped jeans as well as denim shorts and let's face it denim is always a safe bet to wear!   

Jimmy Choo Papyrus Patent Leather & Cork Wedge Sandals

These Jimmy Choo wedge sandals are available in the white seen here along with black or nude, so basically all of the neutrals and they are perfect for wearing day or night with dresses or pants.

These are a platform wedge in a natural cork which always looks good in the summer.   The ankle strap is adjustable and they add a little something to the shoe which lifts it above cork wedged sandals of previous years that have had nothing at the ankle and have just been slip on sandals.

I think Jimmy Choo has provided the perfect summer wedge here, but if you don't agree then you'll be happy to know he also has a range of other wedges and you can see some of them when you click on the shoe above.

Of course if you're after something with a bit of fun you can't go past these festival wedges -



I've featured these shoes on my Pinterest feed as I think they are simply gorgeous!   They certainly fit with this post as they are wedges, perfect for spring or summer and they are full of fun with the multi-colored fringe.

Let's Talk Shoes!

I don't think there's ever a bad time to talk about shoes, do you? So today I'm going to look at some gorgeous high heeled sandals for this spring and summer season.

INC International Concept Women's Sharee Platform Dress Sandals

Walk tall in the Sharee Platform Sandal with strappy caged front, functional back zip and sky-high heel. Perfect for special occasions or anytime you're looking to step-up your style status.

Caparros Maddy Evening Sandals


Sparkle the night away. The rhinestone-accented Maddy evening sandals will show you how.

Thalia Sodi Women's Lichi Fringe Platform Sandals
Dance the night away in these sexy pumps. With swishy fringe along the ankle strap, you won't ever want to sit down!   I think the way the long fringe hangs down and the color it adds some old time Hollywood glamour to your feet.

E! Live From The Red Carpet Platform Evening Sandals

Cascading straps give the caged vamp of E! Live From the Red Carpet's E0046 platform evening sandals such a luxurious look.

Chelsea & Zoe Pansy Sandals
Turn some heads with this unique, colorblocked silhouette. The Pansy sandals by Chelsea & Zoe.   I must admit that these are my favorite from today's selection.   They're like a cross between a simple strappy black sandal and a pair of on-trend summer caged booties.   The color combination is also very eye catching and I could see these looking great with either a dress or trousers.
