7 FABULOUS WEDGES FOR SUMMER 2012 …

If you don’t have your wedges for summer 2012 yet, my darling, what are you waiting for? All of the designers have them ready to wear, and they look fantastic with everything from wide-leg jeans to flirty skirts and midi-dresses. Not sure which wedges to want? I can help. I’ve scoured the web and found these, 7 fabulous wedges for summer 2012. Where to start? How about here…?

1. MULBERRY PATENT LEATHER WEDGE SANDALS

Try these lemon-zest patent leather wedges for summer 2012 with a floral-print top and a pair of natural linen shorts… so pretty! Or be daring and wear them with something pure white, with bright gold accessories to match the buckles at your ankles.

2. MICHAEL KORS ARIANA OSTRICH-EFFECT LEATHER WEDGE SANDALS

Be taller instantly with these 5 inch heels with another inch-and-a-half platform. The ostrich-inspired texture adds interest, and the color is so sweet! I love how these wedges for summer 2012 look with black or white… or, as the designer suggests, black and white polka dots.

3. PROENZA SCHOULER LEATHER AND CORK WEDGE SANDALS

Part wedge, part gladiator, all chic! Wear these with a crisp white blouse and a pair of denim shorts, or with a maxi dress and wood bead necklace. I love the earth tones… gorgeous!

4. JIMMY CHOO PEARL STRIPED LEATHER AND SUEDE PLATFORM WEDGES

I have so many fond childhood memories of Fruit Stripe Gum and of rainbow sherbet, and these wonderful wedges for summer 2012 take me back. Choose one of the brilliant hues, and play it up with a pair of shorts to match and a plain white top.

5. MISSONI LEATHER AND CROCHET-KNIT PLATFORM SANDALS

These cleverly detailed Boho-inspired sandals are the wedges for summer 2012! I love the blues and greens, all embroidered on the wedges… they’ll look great with everything from a linen shirt-dress to a pair of jeans to a white top and linen shorts.

6. CHARLOTTE OLYMPIA MEREDITH STRIPED CANVAS WEDGE SANDALS

How do I love these? Let me count the ways — the black and white contrast with the red detail at the bottom? The sweet bow at the toe? The towering but totally walkable wedge? Or the dainty ankle strap?

7. YVES SAINT LAURENT SAINT MALO PATENT-LEATHER WEDGE SANDALS

Ideal for dressing up or down, these wedges for summer 2012 may be my must-have favorites. The scalloped shape, the rich reddish color, the shiny patent leather… I love how these look with just about everything, especially shorts and blouses, or midi-length dresses.
