~ Ok, so I realize that these AH. MAAAZING. heels are actually more of a “block heeled sandal”…but to me, they feel more like a wedge! Why do I say this? Well, if you live in Milan (or actually any Italian city with lots of stone roads), you will pretty much face plant in anything but a wedge or a big block heel. How do I know? Because I have done this many a time. You would think that going to college in a cobblestone village like Chestertown, MD, would have taught me a lesson about stilettos and stones…
I’m pushing 5’2, but I really LOVE to feel tall! I hate wearing heels but LOVE wearing wedges and espadrilles. After 2 knee surgeries, I’ve learned that heels are just not worth the pain the next day. But wedges and espadrilles are a totally different story. Every spring, I cannot WAIT to get out the wedges and espadrilles for going out. They make dressing up that much more fun for me with minimal risk of falling or having to ice my knees the next day.
I think I’ve found the BEST espadrilles and wedges of the season (below)! Make sure to click over to the blog if you are in your e-mail inbox to see the round-up!
Gratefully with love,
