Spring 2012 Trend: Fun Wedge Heels - Charlotte Olympia Meredith Striped Wedge & more shopping the trend!

If you purchased fabulous wedge heels last summer, we're pleased to tell you they will hold up very well this season as wedge heels continue to be an important trend for Spring/Summer 2012 - the heels are just as high, but the trend has also evolved into something more colourful and unique.

Many spring & summer wedge heels have a natural look to them - whether it's a cork heel, rope-like raffia, or canvas fabric... and these natural tones definitely suit a wedge heel. You can wear them with a sassy little summer dress, your favourite shorts, or even chic capri pants. But many of the new wedges are also city-bound..  with bold colours and sharp prints, they could just as easily be paired with a little black dress, or black leather pants and a white tee. Carrie Bradshaw in 2012 would love these..

Charlotte Olympia continues to be a celebrity fav (no one wears more than Kelly Ripa!), and the new black & white striped canvas wedge is the perfect way to kick off your spring wardrobe. But don't forget the important of colour this season - blue wedges are seamless with skinny jeans, red and orange make a strong statement, and all the unusual colourful combinations below look terrific with white and shades of neutral. Last but not least, anything by Christian Louboutin tells the world you know what fashion is all about....
