Spring Shoes — It’s all about the Wedge

by Tracey

While most of us are still trudging through snow, rain, sleet and generally inclement weather, fashion magazines and major stores are deluging us with the new shoe for spring — the wedge. So who has time to be concerned about spring shoes when it’s time for non-skid weather friendly boots? I do! Every self absorbed shoe loving girl has to be on top of her fashion game, and getting prepared for the next season is just one step in process.

Well, it’s not really new, the wedge was one of the trends for fall, and it has endured for spring as well. The espadrille is one form of the wedge that’s especially hot for spring. Now, the espadrille isn’t new, I’ve worn these shoes off and on for years. They were never particularly chic in the US, but I always loved them for their European flavor. Now they are available in every style, texture and color imaginable. Piperlime has a bevy of espadrilles in dots, leather, ankle strap, lace up, patent, fabric and more.

A more reasonably priced wedge that’s perfect for a “trend” buy for the season is the patent cork wedge from the B.P. Collection at Nordstrom. At only $59.95 it’s the perfect accessory for a spring wardrobe. bp-belize.jpg

One more wedge that is dainty and just soooo cute, is also by one of my favorite shoe designers. Stylish, fashionable and always comfortable, Linea Paolo makes the most adorable shoes that are an affordable outlet for shoe freaks like me. This perfect pink wedge is a must have accessory for spring. linea-paolo-sling-back-pump.jpg
