Shoes are like comfort food to me. If I’m feeling fat, I go shoe shopping. It doesn’t matter how much weight I gain, I can count on wearing a size 7 & don’t have to wonder if my shoes from last year will still fit. They always stick with me, no matter how much me there is.
Boots are probably my number one shoe love, but wedges come in a close second. I’m LOVING that platforms have become a wedge staple, but the downside is that the average heel height is now coming in at 5 inches. 4 inches I can do; 5 is a bit daunting. I am very clumsy & I really don’t want to break my face anytime soon.
Here are the wedges that currently have me salivating. It’s my hope that I’ll own all of these by summer. Although, this list will likely become obsolete by tomorrow…
Dolce Vita Jade
It’s not a matter of if I will own these, it’s when will I own these. I think they’re just different enough from Pela that I can justify having both.
Love this color! So far I’ve only been able to find it at Bloomingdale’s & of course they’re already sold out of 6.5 & 7. Sigh.
I’m thinking I finally need to own a pair of espadrilles. This green color is to die for!

I’m pretty sure I need these in my life. Also, I think the 2 inch platform might greatly reduce the risk of face breakage.
At $240 these babies are a bit out of my price range, but they’re soooo beautiful… I just had to include them.
I did purchase one pair of wedges over the weekend: the Lovely People Bonnie wedge in cognac. I don’t know if I’m in love with them by picture alone. I was drawn to the color & the pebbling of the leather, but the price is what made them impossible to pass up. They retailed for $139.95 & I snagged them on Amazon for $41.99. They’re due to arrive today, so I shall soon know if they were truly a good deal.
Love the MICHAEL Michael Kors Nora wedges! I'm going to have to own them in black and cognac. Great find!
