A couple of weeks ago I had to attend a cocktail party at 6pm and had a major shoe dilemma. I would have to ditch my very comfortable sandals (it was also a very steamy day!) for something more night time appropriate, but nothing too uncomfortable as there would be a lot of standing and mingling. I looked in my closet and only saw chunky winter platforms, fancy evening shoes and flats. I was missing a very important heel: the summertime day to night shoe. So the hunt began (and it has not been easy I must say!).
When it comes to heels and warm weather I am a sucker for a wedge. I find them way more comfortable and they are a great heel to transition from day to night. I hate feeling like I am way overdressed when I leave the apartment for an early evening party - wedges keep it simple, but still chic.
Love this Donna Karan platform wedge, so sleek and chic...
This J.Crew wedge is a great height for trekking around the city and gives you a little bit of preppy sass!

Great color options for this wooden wedge!
The perfect espadrille for a warm summer night!
Sometimes though a wedge just doesn't work with the dress code and a cute pump is necessary. A lot of classic pumps are either boring or have way too high of a heel (like the Louboutins I wish my feet could stomach for more than a cab ride). I am really loving Kate Spade's Karolina heel: comfort - 3" heel - plus style.
I love this minty blue color, perfect for a fun summer "classy" heel
A nude shoe is something I am seriously in need of and I love the fun stripe detailing on the heel.
Gotta love a little faux ostrich...
Are you a classic heel or a wedge kind of girl?
Love the Donna Karan platform wedges - think I just may have to purchase :)
