Low wedges, yay or nay?

I have been wanting some wedges because they are easier on the tootsies than just a regular heel. Plus they have some that are so cute! But, they are always too high for me-- I'm a wimp when it comes to heels!

I was flipping through my free sub of Lucky mag and I came across some of these wedges and wanted y'alls opinion!

Warmly,

Re: Low wedges, yay or nay?

mm, I prefer the bottom 2 pairs, but I'm not a massive fan, The straps on the first pair are too thick. I don't mind the wedge height, but I prefer a more dainty strap, lol

Re: Low wedges, yay or nay?

I agree about the first ones, Rosie!

Ok, y'all... help me find some low-heeled wedges that I can rock Ok, I'm almost 36 and I used the word "rock" and I wasn't referring to music :P

Warmly,

Brandi

I imagined something like these. I just randomly googled these images. I reckon you'd look nice in something similar to these styles

Re: Low wedges, yay or nay?

Thanks, Rosie Those are cute! Thing is, based on my past experience, I think that style would kill my toes! I am sooo weird about my shoes!

I am really liking this one, CDIH:

Sofft Women's Adara Sandal

And I love the picnic ones too! Maybe brown in the picnic and black in the adara's?

I welcome any other pictures too! I love to see y'alls recommendations!

Hugs,

Brandi

Re: Low wedges, yay or nay?

I really like the third pair of the first group, and Cold Day's Sarto Comedy Pair, they are really something that I would wanna have.

I quite like these that Cold Day posted if you can't wear thin straps.

Re: Low wedges, yay or nay?

i like the idea.
the wedges i have actually are a little bit taller than that but not by much.
which is why i can wear them all day and not have my feet be bothered by them.
