My Guardian (Velvet) Angels...

I love shoes. I believe that I should have as many shoes as I do dresses. And halter tops. And necklaces. Okay, maybe not necklaces.

I especially love wedges and have accumulated quite the collection of them in the past several years. From sandals to winter boots, wedges are ideal if you love having the height but don't want to sacrifice the comfort of flats (YUCK- one trend that I have never accepted or bought into). However, I have grown a bit bored with the design of the typical wedge- which is why I adore these SICK cut-out wedges from my favorite shoe designer of-the-moment, Velvet Angels. They are modern, unique, yet simplified in design without having any complicated features. The slingback wedge is 5 inches in height with both smooth and snake-embossed leather. Just under $300, these are stylish without being overly trendy and to be honest, I think the price is quite fair.

Check them out at www.velvetangels.com. I swear, I'm in love with every shoe on their website! Props to the lovely Julia of Song of the Exile (read her blog NOW) for turning me on to this lovely luxury shoe brand.
