Brands and Styles of the Womens Wedge Shoes

Wedge shoes are all about glamor and style. Find brand name wedges and designer wedges in various colors and styles. From casual to formal, there is the perfect wedge for every occasion.

As I mention on my home page, Ferragamo studied anatomy so he could design a the perfect shoe. The wedge shoe came out of that research. So when you slip on those slinky wedge sandals, your foot is cradled beautifully.

I'm a gal that loves glamor. Considering what the wedge shoe represent, I think they are the perfect shoe for my closet. Ferragamo had it right when he built his empire on Hollywood shoes. When you think Ferragamo you think of his invention: the wedge shoe. And you cant think of Ferragamo without glamor. After all he's the designer that hand made shoes for the starts of the 30s, 40s and 50s. He's also the only shoe maker to have an entire museum dedicated to his shoes. There are other shoe museums, of course, but they all feature numerous designers. Mr. Ferragamo has one all to his self. There is a reason for that, his shoes are amazing, and his invention is astounding.

Womens Wedge Shoe Styles

If you're really looking for glamor, there are some wicked sandal wedges with rhinestones along the bands that can really make your feet feel sexy and sassy. Contrary to what some people think, a beaded shoe isn't necessarily an evening only shoe. It is possible to wear a great set of beaded or rhinestone shoes with a pair of jeans. Mostly it's a sandal with split toe style, however, occasionally you can wear a peep toe wedge designed with rhinestones or other embellishments, with casual slacks or jeans. It really all depends on the shoe.

More interested in a basic casual wedge? I would choose a closed toe wedge for a universal style. A closed toe means height and style, but also it means year round usability. Most of the closed toe wedges are going to be casual, but, thank goodness for the Internet, you can find styles of formal close toe styles too. A classy closed toe wedge goes with work and play. There are some formal shoes I've included a link or two here, that really look nice with party dresses or cocktail dresses.

If you're looking for funk and style, go for a platform wedge. Perfect with jeans, or skirt, a platform heel can really spice up your outfit. Most platform shoes don't go well with formal dresses, especially wedge styles, but the new Gucci and Dior ones are oo la la pretty and belong with a sexy cocktail dress.

Peep toe wedges are come in a mix of casual and dressy. While they're generally conservative, we have the Internet to thank (once again) for a selection of cute and quirky wedge shoes.

Price Ranges

For great wedge heels that don't cost an arm and a leg, and are casual, brands like Crocs, Steve Madden and Clarks are the way to go. Steve Madden has some awesome shoes for women that are really pretty. I found this one pair that reminded me of the frilly number that Carrie bought when she went “hello lover” to the shoes in the window. They aren't pink, but they are that same ruffled look (only taller and multicolored, or black).
