I've been eyeing fit flops but have no idea whether or not they work, or - an even greater dilemma - what to wear them with! ;)
Please let us know if they work for you :)
Love Gossip Girl! And that La Petite Salope dress is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
xx
I think I'll choose the...Frye June Sling-Back Ring Wedge. I can never get enough of Frye. Second? Those Miss Sixty's - the color is just perfect for the warmer months!
Love the questionnaire, by the way - j'adore learning all about you! :)
i love every pair but i would have to say the dolce & gabbana's are my favorite! very 70's disco!
Incredible shoes! I see them all around and feel SO short!
Mmmmh! i love this kind of sandals!!
Hi Sweetie Darling,
The La Petite Salope dress is Très Chic! The women wearing high heels at Jack's (boring) polo matches are my little guilty pleasure, always fun to see them sink deep into the grass ;)
Yes I am evil i know!
Next week i am doing a little "Fashion illustration" post especially for you!!!
xoxo
So many gorgeous wedges! I love the Diane von Furstenberg and the Chloé!
Great post!
love the shoes, and the gossip girl pic is fabulous!!

I am not a huge fan of Wedge, but I really LOVE the black one by Sigerson Morrison and that blue Joie wedge. And, that Elle Macpherson Intimates bustier is gorgeous! Fantastic post!
Have a great weekend, darling!

The wedge is the optimal heel, IMO. Walkable and sexy. And I love your answers. You did so many fun things yesterday it blows my mind!
SHOE PORNNNNNNNNNN! Omgosh. I opened your webpage and stareeddd! That was a fun tag and I love Gossip Girl too!
I'm all about NCIS--I watch it all the time...craziness!! Loving those wedges as well; I have a huge weakness for nude wedges for some reason :-)
I love the yellow ones from miss sixty :)
Pilates sounds awesome! I can imagine it requires a lot of energy and patience!
Hi Carrie. I'm on the hunt for some amazing wedges to wear this summer, too. I like the Bottega and Terry de Haviland ones. I love how they give you the extra height and are cushy.
LOVE your blog!! 30 Rock and the Office are my faves.
Have a great weekend :)
i have a pair of wedges that are very similar to the first brown ones! great choices
and opening a yoga studio? sweet idea
this entry was so fun to read, like all of your other entries. i love the roberto cavalli embroidered wedges.
i'm a total sucker for sigerson morrisons.
Oh, wedges...the most comfy kind of height for me. ;)
And yes, I am also addicted to Ab Fab reruns. One of the Best Shows Ever.
Ahhhh, wedges...how I've come to appreciate you. I used to be iffy about them, but since I indulged in a few pairs and most recently in the Tristan Blair pair...I'm a convert!
Love them!
And I love the tag :)
p.s. do the fitflops actually work? I'm too put off by their look to actually consider them. Do let us know if they're worth it :)
have a lovely weekend bella
Those Cavallis are calling my name!
You teach yoga?! How fun! I just started and it's making me feel so much better!
Have a great Sunday CC! xoxo
wedges are the only way to go in the summer for me! easy to walk in & extends my short legs by another 3 inches :)
