finally! my perfect pair of daytime wedges.

As other small girls will be able to sympathise, it can be hard trying to fashion flats when all you want to do is be nice and tall. I'm a mere 5ft nothing, and most of the time my height does not bother me at all, in the day I usually wear flats, but I rarely wear flats on a night out. All of a sudden my height insecurities surface, all these tall girls with even taller heels are around me. Heels are my friend. But weirdly enough, during the day I think i'd feel rather awkward, and not to mention in a lot of pain, in heels. I'm used to flats. However, I do have a pair of boots with little wedges perfect for a bit of daytime height in the winter, and when I wear them, it makes me feel so much more gorgeous and confident, yet it doesn't leave me toppling over and trying to regain my balance either. But now summer is (somewhat slowly) approaching, and my suade boots with a faux fur lining will no longer do, so I got the perfect pair of daytime summer wedges!! And my god they are the comfiest shoes I've ever worn, I genuinely think they are more comfortable than my worn out leopard-print dolly shoes!! 









These bad boys were just £20.00 as well! From New Look! and with my student discount I got them even cheaper which is always a bonus. As you can see from the photos the platform isn't major. I adore big heels more than anyone, but the fact its small means not only is it really comfortable but it gets rid of my fear of wearing major heels in the day. Honestly these are the comfiest shoes i've ever owned. I don't know what it is, possibly the material? Also I love that the wedge looks a little like the sole of an espadrille, without me having to actually buy 'toms' (sorry to any TOM owners but the look has really been done to death. plus these shoes are much more ladylike). 
Also for colour lovers, these shoes don't just come in black but come in a variety of colours, I however went for black for simplicity and the fact it will go with anything. If you get one pair of shoes this summer get these.
