Perfect shoes for summer

May 12, 2011 |  by

The wedge is way in this summer but do not be alarmed. I have been doing some research of my own by making several shoe purchases (you can thank me later) (hubs, I hope you aren’t reading this) and I’d like to share with you my findings.

Aldo’s Dwelle wedge is up there in height but it also covers the other hot fashion trend this year: the camel colored shoe. (Apparently it is very important that you  have at least one pair of nude/camel heels in your closet.) They are also instant leg lengtheners for people like me, with super short legs. Hubba hubba!

How long you can walk in them: these are best worn where there will be no walking and lots of sitting. Just be sure to cross your legs and show off your gams in these fab shoes.

The Maryann by Lucky Brand is a dream- great price, it’s stacked just right, and actually quite comfortable. They made my cankles feel like ankles again. Also? Check out the color.

How long you can walk in them: light walking is okay, just don’t go for seven miles on Las Vegas Blvd like I did or you’ll end up with a laceration from that ankle strap.

Truth be told, you can get away with flip flops all summer if need be. Gap’s Metallic flip flops are well worth $15 and then some. Cute colors and super comfy. Discovering these gems might have been the result of me stumbling into Gap, saving my right foot after a laceration scare. (See above.)

How long you can walk in them: you can walk all the way into fall with these.

What shoes are you wearing this summer?
