Lol - I was thinking about you today, arivecchi. DS1&2 and I went to the library for storytime this morning. The library hours were cut back so that they opened an hour later on Th-Sa. We had 15 min. to wait (next to the parking lot) and a couple frisky boys w/o a stroller....so we went hiking on one of 4-5 nature trails from our library. I was wearing http://www.onlineshoes.com/womens-merrell-sundial-cross-pf_id28058 and although I love them, they were just not the right thing to be wearing on the side of a hill. I thought, "Now what would arivecchi do if she found herself with her 2 boys in the woods on a random Thurs. morning. Would she just wear her cute shoes and deal with it, or would she know that on days she may end up in the woods, different footwear might be required?"

Well, after the whole library visit, we hopped over to look at these. They didn't have them in the blue I really want, but boy I do like and covet them... http://www.theshoeplanet.com/p-9496-birkenstock-sydney-blue-moon-ladies.aspx Can anyone find them in blue moon in a size 40?

It only shows the 40 Narrow :( Those didn't work for my foot at the store today (I tried because I'm desperate.)
The 2nd website was offered up to me earlier. When you click on "about us" or whatever, it says Shanghai. I'm not too comfortable ordering from an unknown website based in China. DH would not be happy with me.

What a timely thread, Arivecchi! I was planning to review these wedges that I recently purchased after someone else posted a picture of them here!

http://www.amazon.com/Clarks-Womens-Harwich-Metallic-Leather/dp/B00451XXO0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&qid=1305857018&sr=8-2

IIRC someone posted these here but was looking for another shoe in the same color b/c they thought this one was too high. These are the most awesome, comfortable high-ish wedge out of my now 3 pairs! The base of the wedge is a bit wider than most, plus the sole is super padded, and I think both factor into the comfort. I wore them walking all over to my visit to Atlanta last weekend, and they were super comfy. I think I am going to buy them in a second color! :D

LOL That was me! I posted about them awhile back and was looking for something similar that wasn't as high. I never found anything though so I bought these because I couldn't stop thinking about them. They are a little high for me, but I just love how they look. Glad you got them and love them too!

Well obviously Mackmama you have awesome taste! ;)

I have some more Amazon credit to spend and I'm eying these as I really have few shoes w/ bright color. Any recs on what to wear with them, from you fashionistas on this thread?

So far this year my only new sandals are a pair of Keen Newports I ordered today. Not exactly fashionable, but hopefully good for walking the dog while pushing the stroller on packed dirt!

Super cute! I think you could wear those with most anything. Jeans, shorts, dresses. Are you looking for a particular outfit to wear with them or just general guidelines for a red shoe? In terms of general guidelines, I think you could wear them with any neutral outfit, as the red (or really any bright color) shoe would make the outfit pop. I tend to wear bright shoes when they don't really match anything else in my outfit. For example, if I'm wearing a red top with jeans, I wouldn't wear red shoes but I might wear orange, brown, black, or green shoes. If I'm wearing a black, silver, orange, green, or blue top with jeans, I might wear red shoes.

In the last thread on shoes, someone posted some Stuart Weitzman espadrilles that were really pretty. Well, I didn't buy them because I'm too cheap, but I did buy these, which look pretty similar: http://www.dsw.com/shoe/n.y.l.a.+colbie+wedge+sandal?prodId=225119&category=dsw11cat260004

and while I was at it, I bought these in red: http://www.dsw.com/shoe/nine+west+peggfo+wedge+pump?prodId=226858&brand=dsw11brand2800016

Thanks! I've just never felt confident with colored-shoe pairings - hence I guess why I have some cute shoes but they are nearly all neutral!

i want these so, but cannot find in my size! (7.5 or 8). I tend to like more $$ shoes usually but the shape of these really caught my eye and for the first time im like hmmm cheaper shoes=more shoes! Must look for fun, inexpensive shoes this summer!

http://www.amazon.com/Rosegold-MELLY-Womens-Melly-Bootie/dp/B003JQLL6Y

ps i know i sound like a shoe snob but really im not (ETA: wait, i just re-read my post and ha! i AM a shoe snob! ooooops). i just like well made designer shoes and they are $$ (Zanotti and Miu Miu are some of my favoirtes). so because of that i have a lot less shoes than most women i know. I have maybe four nice pairs of shoes, and then two pairs of sneakers, one pair of uggs, and two pairs of flip flops.

They don't have them :( and the ordering person wasn't there to check and see if they can get them. I'm guessing they can't since the color seems to be discontinued. Thanks for trying, though!
If anyone else wants to try their skills, here they are http://birkenstocksandalssale.com/birkenstock-blue-moon-birkoflor-sydney-p-159.html but I only want to buy them from a legitimate us-based company.

I do wear boots in the summer sometimes..not like knee high black boots with black jeans tucked in but more like a suede ankle bootie with a pair of dressy silk shorts:loveeyes: But that doesn't happen too often..most days you can find me rocking my old navy flip flops.

I like these a lot: http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shoes/espadrilles/PRDOVR~26446/26446.jsp and the modern red color is hot!, but that's a heck of a lot for an espadrille. Especially when I have a very similar pair that I got at Pied Ã* Terre about 15 years ago. Sometimes hanging onto things pays off! I'm mostly on the lookout for some gladiator-style sandals that aren't over $100.

HA! I was just going to post these. I so, so want some espadrilles this summer!

these (http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374306 418101&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446400826&R=828833451543&P_name=Bottega+Veneta&N=306418101&bmUID=j0F1023)

I bought these this week. They are cuter in person! They are a good 1", 11/2" shorter than most of the wedges I kept liking. Since I'm already 5'9" I don't need more height.http://www.dillards.com/product/Antonio-Melani-Monte-Wedge-Sandals_301_-1_301_502671062?splashlink=s_vab And no, the jute stuff isn't scratchy ;)

I also bought these this summer. They are really tall! But for $30, I figured it was an affordable way to wear the trend.

In the last thread on shoes, someone posted some Stuart Weitzman espadrilles that were really pretty. Well, I didn't buy them because I'm too cheap, but I did buy these, which look pretty similar: http://www.dsw.com/shoe/n.y.l.a.+colbie+wedge+sandal?prodId=225119&category=dsw11cat260004

and while I was at it, I bought these in red: http://www.dsw.com/shoe/nine+west+peggfo+wedge+pump?prodId=226858&brand=dsw11brand2800016


Sadly, the espadrilles I ordered were way too high. They're going back. I like the red wedge heels though. Wearing them today.

Bummer. I jumped on the Stuart Weitzman knock-off bandwagon too and am going to try these. They do look slightly lower than the DSW ones to me, but it could be wishful thinking. ;)

Wow. I feel like my feet are so boring compared to some of you :)

I just took advantage of the 3.95 shipping at 6pm a few weeks ago and got all three of these for $80 shipped!

http://www.6pm.com/b-o-c-bettie-black

http://www.6pm.com/romantic-soles-gianna-pink

http://www.6pm.com/natural-soul-rolanda-sunflower-leather

I was leary about the natural soles with the thong but I wore them on a girls night out from about 4pm -midnight that included about 2 hours of walking and they held up great! My only complaint is that it has been relatively cool here in upstate NY so I am still wearing jeans/pants a lot more than usual this time of year, but most of the leg lengths are too long bc I usually wear heels with pants.

Well, I just made a special trip to Target and bought the ones I linked to. I noticed that they are basically OOS online and my closest Target had one pair left, so of course that made me feel like I shouldn't sit and contemplate. I went back to the Target by DS's preschool where I saw them in my size and bought them for $20 (after $5 off Merona coupon from a magazine). Love the color, and the wedge is "moderate" and pretty stable.

DSW has recently cut prices on a bunch of Sergio Rossi shoes. And I got $5 DSW rewards certificate for my upcoming birthday. I have no sandals for the summer other than a pair of gladiators and flip flops, so ssed all of these reasons as an excuse to buy these (http://www.dsw.com/shoe/sergio+rossi+x-band+buckle+sandal?prodId=222882) sandals in cognac. They were the most practical SRs available in my size and a practical color.

I also cover a pair of nude patent pump with a platform like these (http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/jimmy-choo-cosmic-platform-pump/3135493?origin=category&resultback=1367) JCs but maybe a slightly smaller platform. Girl can dream :)

I think they are, although I haven't worn them walking around quite a bit yet. I saw a pair of Born's? that were almost *exactly* the same. http://www.dsw.com/shoe/b.o.c.+by+born+women%27s+jamaica+wedge+sandal?prod Id=218418&productRef=CROSS:
I swear that Target does a lot of shoe knock-offs (esp. Aerosoles). As for comfort, I think it really depends on the style at Target. These are real leather and are $25, which is on the higher end of Target pricepoints for shoes.
