One to watch in 2011...the wedge

20 January 2011

So if you're looking for the perfect summer shoe for the season then these are bound to wet your appetite...It doesn't matter if you're looking for your jollies or simply eating a lolly in the back garden, it is important to feel good about yourself and these wedges offer us all a helping hand.

These white lace up wedged booties are pretty little things. They are not your traditional wedge but they are perfect for an outfit with cropped trousers.

They will not only add height to you, but lengthen your legs and improve body posture, giving you that catwalk strut we're all after. These are also available in a pale grey, equally as fashionable and scream River Island. And they're all yours for £84.99.

So these aren't techniqually wedges but aren't they pretty? These cork style platformed shoes are perfect for either the office, casual day wear, a lunch time appointment or drinks with the girls. They offer you versatility as well as style. For £59.99 at River Island they are well worth a little look, who knows what else you may find to buy at the same time.

These smart wedged court shoes are very stylish and will be perfect for the office. They come in black too and so there is no excuse for not giving them a little try this season. They are a breath of fresh air from the usual, dare-we-say-it court shoe, and the rounded toe and wedge finish are sexy, but professional enough to wear at work. Available from New Look for £14.99 - BARGAIN ALERT (psst...why not buy both colours for under £30?)

This flower designed wedge is a cutie for the summer and will look great with a light weight material skirt or cropped cotton trousers. Their casual enough for the day time, but have a little extra something if you're planning an evening out with the girls. Available for £24.99 from New Look.

Classy, classy, classy. We're loving these navy inspired wedges from Dune online. They're cute and trendy but keep a little vintage style in there as well - what more could you want. They go great with whites and pale shades and even would fit in with any left over sailor attire from last years spring/summer wardrobe if you're feeling the VAT squeeze. Available for £70.

Purple is the colour to watch this year and so these mauve wedges will be the perfect footwear this season. The crossed pattern will mean they're as comfortable as they are stylish and not too high making them perfect for walking around the shops or even a little holiday stroll. Available from Dune from £75.
