Hi Glee!
I’m more a fan of platform high heels rather than wedges…but I do have a few pairs of wedges in my closet and I do like them especially for something casual 🙂 I’m eyeing a pair of wedges at Charlotte Russe that have a red gingham pattern on them – they sold out of my size online when I checked so hopefully I’ll be able to grab them in my size when I visit the States next week 🙂 Great post on the outfits!
Hi Karen! Like you, I adore more platform high heels but I´ve also some wedges – boots and sandals – in my closet because I love their casual chic and youthful appeal. Glad to see you back.
I love wedges. Very sleek, streamlined styles in peep or closed-toed with a cork platform are my must-haves this season!
I have a pair of dark denim wedges that have a striped multicolored wedge. NO IDEA what to wear them with!…HELP!!
Hi Sade´, you can create a colorblock look using the different colors from your wedge, or you can wear the denim wedges with a mini skirt and white linen shirt for a casual, comfy look.
