Topshop Aerobic Wedge Heel Trainers

These Topshop Aerobic Wedge Heel Trainers are sick. sick. sick. sick. sick. sick. sick.

 

They have just the *slightest* wedge, so they aren't hard to walk in... but that does make them a little clunky (at first wear at least... maybe they need breaking in?). They pinched/rubbed on my left pinky toe just the slightest (probably due to the downward angle of the wedge), but that went away after a while (once again, breakin' em in). I fit just fine into a 7.5 even though I am normally a size 7. I, like many, have the joys of having 2 different sized feet -- for heels, etc... I can either have a shoe too tight on one foot, if I take a 7, or too loose on other if I size up to 7.5. Are you confused? I am too. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that they appear true to size or maybe they run a tiny bit small? To see me wearing them in an outfit video, click here.

They even won boyfriend approval! Ryan saw me putting these on and was like, "Wow, those are cool. They look just like my old rollerblades!" That happens to be an incredibly uncool statement, so I'm not sure where to go with that. I mean, uh... just kidding Ry, Brink-style bladin' is totally going to have a comeback... totally....







I also saw these ones from River Island, which are incredibly similar in black, and was gutted (take a load of that lingo, Brits) to see the red was sold out... I wanted those ones soOooOooo bad!!!

Review: Senso Agnes

I had previously blogged about the Senso Agnes wedges and fell in love. When Solestruck had a 15% off sale, I decided to get em. I opted for both colors because I wanted to try them on and decide in person what color I loved and return the unwanted pair. It still is a tough decision, but part of me thinks I like the INSANE neon yellow/green the best. The neon yellow is smooth and the blue has more texture (as you can tell in the pictures). What color do you like best?
Unfortunately, they were uncomfortable and I decided to return them both. The blue felt like it fit better than the yellow pair, but both were loose around the sides and my foot felt like it was going pop right out of them even though they fit well and were tight when standing (look how scrunched my toes are!). The blue pair came with an ink smudge on it, so it made it pretty easy for me to decide to send the blue pair back. It's hard to let go of the other pair, but I just can't even fathom spending an hour in these wedges without being in serious pain! Beauty is pain, I guess. Goodbye gorgeous shoes, goodbye!
 Sniffle, sniffle. Bye Bye Senso Agnes! Writing this post only made it a little bit harder to let them go.

Madewell Smokeswirl Espadrille

I wore these shoes on my graduation day (as well as many days since then) and I just absolutely love them. They are really comfortable and I feel very secure in them (no wobbly ankles). With graduation cash burning a hole in my pocket, I'm trying realllllly hard to convince myself not to get them in the denim style (excuse me, "bengali indigo") as well.

WANT: Deena & Ozzy Wedge Boots

I am in l-o-v-e with these wedge boots (suede and leather) from Deena & Ozzy I found on Urban Outfitters' site. I'm notorious for buying the same item in multiple colors if I love em to death, and I feel I would do the same with these wedge boots... I can't decide which I like more!!
