Summer 2011 Trend: Wedge, Espadrille and Cork Sandals

by Kirsten on June 23, 2011

In honor of my recent search for new sandals, I figured it was a perfect time to highlight one of my favorite summer trends – wedge sandals! I always like to have about two pairs on hand, at minimum. My last pairs headed into retirement, and again I was on a quest for the perfect wedge.

What does the perfect wedge consist of? Well, for me, a few things: comfort, a cork or braided base, and simple colors that can mix and go with just about any color palette. Your list may be different, but if you follow my advice, you’ll be sure to have a couple pairs of shoes that are in regular rotation!

Let’s start out with a few pairs seen on various celebs. The first – my absolute FAVORITE. Sigh. The Stuart Weitzman Alex.

Buy the Stuart Weitzman Alex at Endless.com – $365

Want Jennifer Aniston and Eva Mendes’s look for less? Can’t quite afford the Stuart Weitzman Alex? How about splurging for the N.Y.L.A equivalent?! I love mine!


Buy the N.Y.L.A. Women’s Colbie Wedge Espadrille at Endless.com – $49

Looking for something a bit different? I also love these styles:

Kim Kardashian in Christian Louboutin Super Dombasle Sandals

Get the Christian Louboutin Super Dombasle Patent Sandals from MyTheresa.com

Want Kim Kardashian’s look for less? These Christian Louboutin Super Dombasle Sandals in black patent leather will run you between $500-$600 bucks. These babies are a fraction of the price, and a great find!


Chinese Laundry Women’s Go For It Wedge Sandal – $79

I absolutely LOVE this look on Audrina Partridge:

Purchase the Chloe Cork Wedge Slingback at Bloomingdales

Want Audrina Partridge’s look for less? Get these shoes from Zodiac American for a fraction of the price. They are  slightly different, but definitely get the same look:

Zodiac American Vinnie

Zodiac American Original Women’s Vinnie – $59.95

Are there any other wedges, espadrilles or cork sandals you adore? Share your faves by leaving a comment below!

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries @ LAX on 4/27/11

Many of you may not be a fan of Kim Kardashian, but there is something about her I love. Aside from the obvious – she’s beautiful, her style unrivaled, and she dates some pretty hot men – she also has a very sweet side to her that I do take notice of. This outfit is a bit of a deviation from her norm, and I love it. In fact, I have an almost identical dress and absolutely love it. Maxi dresses are a favorite of mine during the warmer months, and Kim goes to show that you don’t have to be tall to rock a long dress!

Kim Kardashian @ JFK Airport

Who really isn’t a fan of Kim Kardashian’s style?  Her stylist Monica Rose is one amazingly talented lady. It’s rare that I see Kim in something I hate, and even with these bright skinnies on, I still am digging her look. Simply put, she looks amazing! Oh, and she is wearing my Rick Owens jacket. I think because I share the same last name as Rick, that he should hand over this exact jacket. I would be indebted to him FOREVER. Sigh.
