Rafia wedge’s are trending this season.  Check out a few of the really cute pairs I’ve found:

First, we have the uber unique look of the Arcoa by Robert Clergerie.  The Arcoa sports a braided natural rafia upper and also covers the espadrille platform wedge.   Available in both natural rafia & red.   $295@zappos.

Swap your heels for this beachy-chic espadrille, and you’ll be every bit as elegant but with a summery, casual vibe. Crafted with a metallic synthetic upper, the shimmery Palm Beach from Michael Kors features a strappy braided design with a side buckle closure and leather lining for comfort. The logoed, rope-wrapped wedge heel completes this breezy look and makes it a stylish pairing for everything from designer skinnies to a slinky halter dress.  $98@jildorshoes.

Similar to the Michael Kors Palm Beach, shown above, but just a bit lighter on the wallet – the Jessica Simpson Coronia wedge is the strappy, flirty spice every wardrobe needs. The braided leather upper and espadrille style are must-haves for warm-weather wardrobes. Pair with a maxi dress for youthful, fun flair.  $79@endless.

It has been extremely cold and snowy here in Virginia this year, making it difficult to even think of leaving the house in a pair of sexy sandals like the fabulous ‘Calico’ shown above from Carlos by Carlos Santana – but since tomorrow is Valentines Day, who says I have to leave my house!  I may just slip these babies on and nothing else all day long!!

These dreamy pink crisscross sandals will make you feel hot and sexy, no matter the temperature outside gals.  Grab yourselves a pair… or two, available in twelve beautiful colors.   $78.95 over at Zappos.

The Nine West shoe ‘Heathers’ first made its appearance last Spring, but has just been released in three new colors to take you into Fall – bronze, gold, and white patent.

Yellow became the “It” color this summer, and these heels are TDF in the bright yellow – It is a super sexy burst of fun! The bronze, in contrast, takes this shoe from flirty & fun to just downright SEXY, it is simply a “Must have” for late summer evenings! $76.46 @ endless or $93 @ zappos.

Here is an interesting pair of heel strap sandals to take you into the Fall. The ‘Ivy’ strappy pseudo-slide by Glory Chen is just downright interesting, no matter how you look at them! From the multi color stripe wooden cone heels to the adorable button detailing, they are simply a lovely departure from the ordinary. $288 @ edgeofurge.

I really like this sandal from CK! It is just a flat out great summer slip on. You can dress it up or down. It works with shorts, capri’s, sun dress or even with a cute summer mini. The silver is my favorite but it’s also available in black. $70 @ zappos.

If you’re looking for a classic formal sandal with out-of-this-world sex appeal, the ‘Comma’ from Martinez Valero is a sure bet.   This strappy number is ultra chic with hook button accents that create a very traditional & feminine look.  The ankle straps are elasticized for added comfort.  Available in Gold, Black, and Red.  $144.95 @ endless.

One thing is certain regarding Spring Shoe Fashion Trends, and that is bold colors are back. Everywhere I look I am seeing unhindered use of beautiful color, it’s everywhere and in every type & price of shoe.

Gone are the watered down Easter-Egged hues that usually dominate Spring collections and in are the bright & bold colors that SCREAM out to be seen. You’ll see Greens ranging from “tropical” to “neon”, hot pinks and blaring yellows, popsicle orange and bright blues.
