Snake print isn't my favourite print for shoes, but I have to admit that Miu Miu have used it quite skilfully in these wedge sandals, which give you just a touch of the exotic. These have a narrow slingback and pointed toe, and although the base colour is black, they have a very summery look about them which will make them perfect for these semi-formal occasions during the warmer months. They're £385 from Net-a-Porter.

I know they're just a pair of grey wedges and, on paper at least, that makes them sound pretty boring, but aren't these AlainQ wedges lovely? The faceted heel makes all the difference, and while I'm still not completely sold on the colour, think it's a great way to make a practical wedge more interesting. If you think so too, these are 273 euros, and you can buy them here.

I think 'Astound' is the right name for these Carvela wedges, don't you?
The Kurt Geiger website doesn't actually say how high that platform is, but I think it's safe to say you won't be running any marathons in them - or even running for the bus, come to think of it. If the height doesn't bother you, these are £140 and available at Kurt Geiger.

I'm starting to think the whole "hearts on shoes" thing is more than just a Valentine's Day fancy... Here's yet another pair, this time from Marc Jacobs, who's added the heart into the wedge heel. This could have all gone terribly wrong, and ended up looking like some kind of stripper shoe, but actually, my first instincts tell me I quite like these, hearts and all. I think "subtle" is probably the wrong word for them, but the heart detailing is something people would probably only notice if they decided to take a closer look, so it's less obtrusive than you might think.
If you like them too, they're £377 at Net-a-Porter.

I love Kenzo fragrance but Kenzo footwear is almost a new thing for me. They're not overexposed online or offline but there is always something chic about the brand that keeps me checking out what they have to offer every season. I must admit I am intrigued by these Kenzo cherry print wedge sandals, the combination of the cherry print with the red and white check works out well and together it softens the chunkiness of the 13.5 wedge sandal with a 4.5cm platform. These are definitely a fun spring shoe for a girl who needs a little more fun and height in her life.

Valentine's Day. Been and gone, I know, but who doesn't want that loved up feeling all the time? These heels by Marc Jacobs look like your ordinary sandal when viewed from the front (although the nude leather and gold trim do make them that little bit more special).
However, it is when you turn side on and view the profile of these wedges, that you'll see the exciting part - a heart-shaped cutout wedge in a metallic gold. Altogether now: awwww. If you've fallen head over heels for these, you can find them at Net-a-Porter for £377.

Spring: it's the season of the wedge-soled shoe, and it doesn't really get more Spring-like than these Braccialini flower fronted numbers, does it? With their bright, primary colours and simple flower, they have an almost childlike feel about them, although the high heel helps make them a little more adult. There's another flower - this time in orange - on the other side of the toe, and I think they're one of the cutest styles I've seen in a long time. They're £88 at Yoox.com.
