Trend Spotlight: Wedge Sneakers

I don't normally wear sneakers/trainers as I am quite small and therefore prefer to be teetering on heels as often as possible! So unless am off to the gym, sneakers do not figure into my wardrobe.

A while back I started to see celebrities in Hollywood running around with these wedge sneakers by Isabel Marant and ever so often I would think "hmmm maybe, but am not convinced they looked a bit too clunky for me"  Well, it seems the trend has caught on as many a brand are making the wedge sneaker and I figured it was time to jump on this bandwagon and get a pair! I bought the 'Thelma' by Ash (see below) and completely love it!

Below are my picks for the best non-clunky looking wedge sneakers out there.

Enjoy!

Love Affair...With Valentino

I seriously cannot get enough of this collection. Last night I was doing a bit of internet "window shopping" which is basically where I shop my brains out online by placing items into a shopping cart but then I don't actually buy anything.  This is what I do when I am low on funds but still need a shopping fix. Pathetic I know, but at least it helps quell the urge in the moment and helps me relax.

Anyway, I came across the ankle boot (shown below) and literally fell in love! I cannot stop thinking about these shoes so I decided to do a post on Valentino.

Here are the shoes from the "Rock Stud" collection.  I plan on putting some funds aside to buy these lovely boots and if I could would buy every single one of these lovelies.

Enjoy!,

Yummy! I can imagine a million outfits for these.


oh! it is so hard to choose, what a beautiful tone of Nude.

This combination of Red and Nude with the studs is just too AMAZING

I mean really, am at a loss, just too too lovely!


I would wear these everywhere, The perfect flat!
