Six of the best... Wedges

So many wedges so few summer days. We've distilled the vast array available on the market to six of the very best. In the mood for perspex? We suggest Russell & Bromley's silver metallic shoe to get the party started. While if you're more of a traditional girl, why not try Office's espadrille for size. Of course, a wedge special wouldn't be complete without a piece from Salvatore Ferragamo – the legendary cobbler who pioneered the cork wedge by sewing together corks from wine bottles and lining them with leather as a result of war shortages. (Who said fashion wasn't born out of necessity?) Today, the Ferragamo wedge is slightly more sophisticated, in sumptuous red suede no less. And if that doesn't satisfy your summer shoe cravings, there's always that old faithful, Chanel. Now all that's left for you to do is tidy up those toes with the summer's sexiest nail shades and you'll be walking tall.
