nautical-inspired wedges from derek lam

Derek Lam goes nautical bohemian with his Spring/Summer shoe collection and shoedish couldn’t be more thrilled. These casual and flirty wedges bring the best of the best of summer sandals into one neatly packaged wedge. Comfortable enough to explore the path less travelled, yet chic enough to schmooze with the big boys. These Derek Lam Marika Lace Up Wedge Sandals are complete with a sea blue rope lace-up and antiqued brass rivets perfect for a cocktail party on the private yacht, while these Derek Lam Dylan Gathered Wedge Sandals, featured a gathered keyhole vamp and canvas lace-up, might be better suited for a beach-side bonfire. Available at shopbop.com.

trend watch: the summer wedge

It has been the season of the wedge. A shoe feature most commonly reserved for sandals and warm-weather shoes, the wedge took center stage this past season, appearing on everything from OTK boots to classic round-toe pump designs. And as the Spring shoe collections begin to hit stores, it promises to be an even longer wedge-friendly year. The wedge, in all its glory, is here to stay…at least for now. From natural woven materials to shiny patents and bold patterns, this season and the following will bring you even more of what you know and love about the wedge. Here are just a few of our favorites:

wedge sandals from easy spirit

Originally uploaded by shoedish

Shoe love is definitely a girl thing, but true devotion - the kind of shoe love that is a crippling disease - is most definitely genetic. Our affliction was passed onto us from our mother, shoe-Zeus bless her, and it is a disorder we will suffer from until the end of our days. Momma Shoedish is shoe obsessed and while she’d happily wear flip flops 365 days a year, we still give her props for wearing 3-inch stilettos every now and again, even if it’s only for an hour. Recently she’s found that her shoes fit into the “mature” category, which seems to be the more polite way of saying “matronly” or “old”. “Mature” shoes, however, have stepped up there game in the last few years, with companies like Aerosoles, Born, and Easy Spirit adding fashionable designs to there comfort collections. These wedge sandals from easyspirit.com are not only sensible and wise, but trendy and cute! All hail the modern mature and the sophisticated women who wear them!

*Shop Easy Spirit SALE up to 70% off! Valid through 2/27/10

toms shoes for valentine’s day

We read this super cute love story on the TOMS Shoes website the other day and we thought, in honor of the month of Love, that we should share it with our friendly shoe lovers: “When we were in Virginia on vacation this past summer (from our home in CA) our delightful, 22 year old bearded, tattooed web designer son and our family were eating burgers at little retro diner in Williamsburg. We were approached by a (brave!) girl “My friend wanted me to give you her number” is what she told our son.   Yes, this cute and stylish 20 year old thought our son was cute… but what clinched it was that he was wearing TOMS!  Because he was fashionable AND socially conscious she could NOT let this opportunity pass by! He called her.  They dated cross-country (interrupted briefly by his 6 week trip to help orphans in Kenya).  They are now planning their Virginia wedding and they want everyone in the wedding party (bride, groom, attendants, flower girls – parents???) to wear TOMS!”

*Pick up your pair of Valentine’s - and LOVE - inspired espadrilles from TOMS Shoes. Here are a few of our favorites:

toms shoes go glitter happy

TOMS Shoes goes glitter happy and why the hell not, when the final product looks like this. Besides the fact that this is one of the greatest shoe brands on the planet for its mission alone, the shoes are starting to move into the trendabulous market as well, which is exactly where they belong. We receive a lot of emails regarding TOMS, from those that despise the casual design to those who have fallen head-over-heels in love, but one thing remains true throughout, they’ve certainly been getting noticed. With a slew of colorways, fabrics, and new styles - including the new line of kid’s shoes - TOMS Shoes is certainly rockin’ our boat. We’ll be buying these Gold Glitter TOMS classic espadrilles immediately…and we may toss the silver ones in the shopping cart, as well.
