All labels have their moments (and non-moments) and DKNY is a name whose star seems to be in ascendant at the moment. We're certainly seeing some great things on the footwear front, with these super chic colour block wedges taking on where this season's much coveted two-tone pumps left off.
Very versatile with their black panelling and neutral patent leather, these would blend in seamlessly with a transitional or spring summer outfit. They're the sort of shoes you just won't want to take off...

I just spotted these super chic wedge ankle boots over at Yoox, where they've made the interesting decision to slash the price of these Pompili boots from £89 to £59, which seems odd considering how hot the look is right now.
They're available in three different colours: deep jade (pictured), brown and military green and I am seriously tempted. I can see these working with any casual item, whether a skirt or trousers combo, and lifting you off the ground in comfort and style.

Perhaps it's my hormones playing up again, but some shoes just make me want to go 'awwww!' and these wedge booties, with their cute little tassels and subtle brogue detailing are definitely in that category.
These boots would lift your feet high above any snowdrifts we might hope to experience this winter, and will really add style to a casual outfit. The styling is just shoe-like enough to wear with a skirt too, making them a highly versatile choice that makes them well worth the high-end high street price tag. Tempted? You bet I am!
£110 in natural leather at Topshop
I'm seeing a lot of neutral leather straps on things at the moment, a style that creates a lovely two-tone look without too much sharp contrast. It's just the thing to make you feel summery too, as these easy-matching shades will go with pretty much everything in your spring wardrobe - from floaty floral dresses to smart, khaki shorts.
The cut-out areas at the sides of these shoes will give plenty of room for the breeze to cool your feet as you stroll around on holiday or around town.

The name of this shoe is 'What's Going Down?' and I'm happy to report that the one thing I can see going down here is the price!
It'll set you back a mere tenner, which I certainly thing is a bargain when I consider their likeness to the brand's 'Wafa' sandal; a shoe that saw me happily through two summers and I'd have happily replaced had they not withdrawn it this year! These too are meant for summer but will look great with thick tights in the autumn.
£10 (while stocks last) at Office

Being a shorty I am always plagued by the flats or heels dilemma when I'm on holiday. Actually, now that I think of it -pretty much any social situation! I don't want to wear flats and feel like a child if I end up in a bar yet I don't want to wear heels and look over-dressed. Alas, I would love to be one of those tall girls who get away with wearing flats to nightclubs! Plus, I'm much more of a laid-back dresser so I don't always feel comfortable in prim heels.
But now I know why Faith have their moniker because they have just answered my prayers! These wedges have enough heel (3.3") to add a few much-needed inches to my stature yet the simple thong detail gives it that laid-back feel. They strike just the right balance! Hurrah! Plus, the silver and bronze leather will go with pretty much anything in the Summer wardrobe and unlike all the clunky wedges out there these are really flattering on feet.
True, they aren't the most fashion-forward sandals but they are a real god-send for any mini-me!
They are £50 at Faith. You can buy them at Debenhams.

If ever a shoe lived up to its name, it's these 'Astound' wedges at £140 from Carvela, because I am astounded anyone could actually walk in them.
That is a 5.9 inch heel people. Almost 6 inches. If I feared of death by shoe, you would not see these on my feet.
A drastic spin on the classic mary jane, these are more 'back to my job as a stripper' then 'back to school'. With three patent leather straps and a peep toe, these are definitely shoes for wanting to be seen in. If you want to make sure everyones eyes are on you, they come in red too!
