Happy Tuesday after Memorial Weekend.  I hope you all a fabulous time and enjoyed much better weather than I.  Actually, yesterday the sun finally poked it’s head out of the clouds but just as I was really enjoying the warmth, the gray clouds took over and the rain poured down.  I’m trying to be optimistic for warmer weather.  I really am.

Another subject matter than tends to ruffle my feathers is that of heels and anything adding height to shoes.  You see, I’m quite lengthy in stature and so I fear in adding anything else to draw attention to the distance between my head and toes.  Don’t get me wrong, I love being 5′10″ and there are some definite perks but passing a little boy while walking down the hall in church and have him stare at me with ginormous eyes while matter-of-factly stating, “You’re rrrreally tall,” is not one of them!

What really stinks is that I tend to miss out on the best and most  stylish shoes that exist, namely the wedge sandal.  And before I hear anyone say that height doesn’t matter and that “a tree is a tree,” just stand next to me in a pair of towering wedges and you will take back whatever wisdom was about to spew from your mouth.

Here’s the deal, if I was able to sport the height on my feet, I would definitely choose the wedge over any other shoe for several reasons:

• The Wedge Shoe never completely goes out of style.
• There’s much more stability with a wedge over a heel.  Me trying to walk in heels is a sad sight for the eyes so I would surely go for the additional balance.
• With more stability, I’m less likely to twist an ankle or fall flat on my face.
• Wedges are more comfortable and I, being a practical person, will opt for comfort 8 out 10 times.
• The Wedge is considered more casual and that means they are more versatile.
• Last but not least – they HOT!  And really make every leg look sexy.

A few of my favorite looks….

I’m 100% positive that I would never wear these.
