Day 674 - But She Ain't Messin' With No Broke

Shoes:  Pink jelly wedges 'Kyle' Harajuku Lovers

I thought I'd worn these wedges on the blog before, but a quick check reveals I haven't!  They are yet another pair that I've had for years and unearthed from the bottom of the shoe-box pile so I could wear them during summer.  The fit is a little strange, usually in American sized shoes I need an 8 or at least a 7.5, but these are only a 7.  I can remember ordering the larger size and although they were tight across the foot, there was masses extra in length, so I ordered the size down.  Again, they are tight across the foot (but no more than the larger size) and you can see they fit better at the front.  The ankle strap is also super-long with me wearing it in the last hole (unheard of for me) and it was still gaping, so smaller ankles may need to pierce another hole or two.  They are almost like flatforms, so I felt a little flat-footed and strange in them, but they are a fun shoe for summer.

Wearing: Parrot print maxi-dress G21 at Asda, bow cardigan New Look.
Fit:  See above, run large in length but narrow, adjustable buckle fastening.  4" wedge heel, 1 1/2" platform.
Comfort:  Because they're tight they might bug you after a while.
