Wedge Sneakers: FUN Trend or FUNny looking?

My first thought when I saw that  Wedge Sneakers were making a comeback:  How could anyone think that putting a platform inside of a shoe that is used for active wear could be “cute” or stylish at all!

Am I the only one who instantly thinks of the Spice Girl shoes that were  SO IN during the 90’s?

After I got over my initial ill-favored reaction (which I want to note took many months) I actually started to see some cute ones and now I’m torn on how I feel about them. I have yet to purchase a pair though, I think they would just go unused and this year I plan to not purchase things that are going to just sit in the closet.

Here are some of my finds:

Forever 21 – Floral Wedge Sneaker $38

Forever 21 – Black Faux Suede Wedge Sneaker $40

Jeffrey Campbell – ‘Teramo’ Sneaker $240

Ash – Colorblock Lace Up Wedge Sneaker $250

Go Jane – Leopard Wedge Sneaker $32

How do you feel about Wedge Sneakers?

If you own a pair – what is your favorite type of outfit to pair them with?
