Wedge sneakers have been popping up more and more. In fact at the time of writing this post, THIS POST is one of my most popular by way of Senior Google.
The whole thing originated with the super cool Isabel Marant versions but at over $600 a pop & the fact that they are perpetually sold out, most of us are looking for a good knockoff version.
My favourite wedge sneaker versions are from Schutz (seen in the photos here via eluxe) and Serafini. I think both of them look cool, with out over emphasizing the wedge heel.
The best part about the whole sneaker saga happened the first day back making the preschool run; one of the other mom’s telling me they looked fun and that I totally pulled them off (Thanks Cathy!!!!).
This made my day as to be truthful I took me a long time to commit to this trend. I always thought they looked cool but what doesn’t look cool when it comes to models off duty and celebs?
Oh and PS the ones I am sporting are super comfy too!
Outfit details: Beanie Hat Attack via Mendocino (last year similar here luxe version here), Brown Sweater c/o Fredas, Scarf (gift), jeans Gap, Sneaker Wedge Schutz.
Would you rock the wedge sneaker? Or would you stick with Chucks?

I have been eying these wedge sneaks for months now. They look great on you! I can't justify the Isabel Marant price tag but I can definitely get behind an under $200 deal!
You just gave me the push I needed to rock these awesome sneaks!

Thanks Lauren. I too have been lusting after the Isabel Marant sneakers but like you the high price for sneakers is a bit more than I can swallow. These are really cute and so comfy!
