I don't mean to make this a wedge issue, but...
I wear wedges a lot. Like, a lot of lot. Like, so much that I get teased for it.
But I can't help it. Those of you ladies out there -- especially my fellow vertically challenged sistas -- know the comfort a wedge can offer. No lie. It's all the benefits of a high heel without the sometimes-pain that comes along with those.
But, everything has its time right?
Which is why when I slipped on a pair of my go-to wedges earlier this week, I just KNEW.
The grip was off, the heel long chipped and grinded down to something totally unrecognizable from its former self. Discolored. Not even worth the cobbler's time.
They were done. Finished. At the end of their life.
Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah.
I should have taken a picture, but they're THAT embarrassing.
*Sigh*
There must be something in the water. First Deal Diva Katie's jellies, now my wedges...be careful out there people. The grim reaper of footwear is on the prowl!
So, I'm in the market for some replacements, and I'm hoping you guys will help.
These black low wedges with the bow detail are $22.99 at Payless.
These, on sale for $24 at Target, seem nice and summery.
Kohl's has these for $39.99. Would probably look good with a casual dress...
Thoughts?
