Yep, I decided to do it. It’s high time for me to share my love of shoes with you!
Many of you have been bombarded with an already long winter and are yearning for spring and summer. I got a taste of your pain (?) last week while in Boston and have to admit I was pleasantly pleased with returning to Cali’s 70 degree weather.
One of my go-to shoes is the sandal wedge. I love them in neutral colors so they can be slipped on and will pair well with anything. A good pair of wedge sandals are one the very few shoes I actually wear out! In 2006, the bestie and I snagged a pair of the exact same Bakers wedges. We both agreed they were perfect every day footwear and couldn’t pass ‘em up. Well sadly, mine had been through the ringer one too many times and I feared a looming catastrophic fall if I didn’t give them up to the garbage gods.
However, that left me wedge-less. Meep! The horror, right? Ha!
After the new year, I spent a little time searching and came up short. And then during my week of ridiculous spending, the shoes I wanted were presented in front of me.
Enter Charles David Luna wedges (purchased from Endless.com):
Here are two ways to wear wedges (sorry for the rushed blurry post-work pics…eek):
And because I think every girl should be well prepared for the warmer months that will soon arrive, I’d like to give YOU a pair of these wedges.
I will do my best to give the exact same pair in your size, but if they are unavailable, I will find a lovely substitute. OR, I am also happy to buy a wedge that is more *you*.
You can enter in 3 ways — each comment is a separate entry. I will select the winner by 5p Pacific Time this Friday
- What is your favorite go-to shoe/sandal?
- Describe your desired wedge. If it’s this one, say so. If not, make sure to tell me what you’d like, especially if you don’t want something so tall
- Mention my giveaway on your blog and provide me a link back saying you did so.
Oh and Canadians can enter too — I’ll find a way to get themt o you!
Good luck =)




I love wedges. I have a beige pair that match everything! I think I wore them pretty much every day during summer.
Although I don’t want to be in the shoe giveaway (because you’ve given me plenty over the years and I want to spread the love), I’ll still leave my favorite go-to shoe. I think it changes as my shoe collection evolves, but my favorite right now is the brown bootie. It goes with everything and can be fun in multiple seasons. Good thing I just got a new pair of brown booties while out shopping with muh bestie
.
My favorites are flip flops
or wedges
I think my “go to” is actually a pair of nude colored patent leahter jimmy choos I have. Super comfy, match everything and just perfection!
…. BUt I do have a need for excessively bright/high heeled shoes too so I rotate alot!
my favorites are flip flops, and my silver heels!
A style of shoe that I can almost always use for anything as my “go to” is the open back peep toe. You can dress it up and down with almost anything…
Or during the summer, my flip flops with sparkly straps get worn often!
You are amazing. This is an awesome giveaway.
Right now my favorite go-to shoes are my purple/greyish zebra striped flats. Im in love with them.
This is an awesome giveaway! I love it!
My go to shoes are my black boots — it is still freakin cold here! Other than that I have a pair of blue flats that I love to wear with jeans.
I love these shoes although *I* would prefer something not so tall
very fun giveaway! Ive been loving my nude pumps lately!
Come summer time I’m pretty much in Reef flip flops everyday. What can I say I’m more of a function over form kind of girl.
I linked you in my morning post!!

my favorite go-to shoes are flip flops (can you tell I need to win this haha)
my ideal wedge shoes would be something that could look professional or could be worn with dresses. I have no idea what that would look like!
Aww these shoes are super adorable! I love them and would love to win, however, if I win, my desired wedge would have a smaller heel. My hubs is a bit short so I like to do 1″ at most haha
Anyway, my favorite go to shoe? summer = strappy sandals winter = boots; ankle, mid-calf +, love em! (I have one in just about every color)
I will go add your giveaway to today’s post! Thanks for the opportunity!

My favorite go to spring/summer shoes is definitely a wedge with a high heel and in the fall/winter months it’s definitely a nice knee length boot with a high heel.
I love these wedges, they are cute and would go with anything! When it comes to shoes I like to make a statement. I love neutral colored wedges but I also love bright colors and fun animal print patterns too. I love wedges with a higher heel as well!
Oh… and my ideal wedge? Comfy, practical and sky high.
I’m a munchkin!
My favorite go-to shoes are the Tory Burch flats I bought recently. I didn’t want to jump on the TB bandwagon but my 5-year-old had them already, courtesty of the MIL so I had to do it so we could match!
My favorite go-to shoes lately have been my moccasins. I mean, if I’m going out and dressing up, you better believe I’ll be rockin’ my 4″ stilettos, but for the day-to-day I love moccasins.
And I love those wedges!
My favorite go to shoe are my comfy classic cardy UGG boots – for dressing up I love my Michael Kors brown peep toe heels because they are super high and make my legs look a mile long!
and I love those wedges! the higher the better for us short girls
My go-to shoes are sanuk sidewalk surfers
Okay, I’m really not a shoe person. I think I only own about 4 pairs of heels and none are wedges. I have worn a pair of wedges before and I like the fact that they are so much easier to walk in than stilettos.
In any case, due to my severe lack of shoe style, I will let you pick shoes for me if I win. I envy your fashion knack.
My go-to shoe in the summer are my grey wedges from Target that I got last year. They have a ruffle on them and are comfortable!
If I were to win a pair of shoes from you (size 8) then I would love to have a 3-3.5 inch wedge heel in nude color that would go with everything! I love all sequins, studs and embellishments too:)
My favorite go to sandal are my tan wedges, they make me tall and I’m able to walk in them!
I would LOVE love love a cute pair of ballet flats! I have the hardest time finding shoes –since I wear size 11..
Plus, my husband and I are the same height, so I tend to stick to flats for that reason…
But I would totally trust your style and whatever you picked for me! I have a 16 mo. old and am 10 wks pregnant, so I would NOT say no to a personal shopper!! haha…
[PS~I also live in N Cal and am loving the weather!
]
Oh, and my go-to sandal is a flat, stone-embellished sandal from Marshalls
I LOVE pointy stilettos! So perfect.
I loooove high heels, but recently my favorite go-to shoe is without a doubt my ballet flats. They’re just so darn comfy!
My favorite go-to shoe in the Winter is an Ugg boot…sad I know. In the Summer I am all about the Wedges! Have you ever owned a pair of seychelles wedges? they are one of my faves!
I love the wedges you posted, right up my alley
I’m going to post you on my blog for tomorrow!
Thank you – so much – for your comment on my blog today. Today was one of the hardest days and I literally thought I was going to break-down and just quit. Instead, I ran to the bathroom and cried (quietly) while trying to compose myself. I’m at the end of my rope but trying to hold on tight…
I could never look good in those beautiful shoes. You are so fashion-savvy. Maybe one day when I care enough to put some thought into me I’ll be able to justify them.
Good luck to the winner. This is such a beautiful Gift-away!
Peace.
My favorite go to shoe normally is a pair of black flats because they go with anything…although in the summer I always wear flip flops since I’m lazy, haha
My ideal wedge def has a lot of height to it…I always want to look taller, lol. The wedges you have posted are so cute! Such an amazing giveaway for shoe lovers!!!
my ideal wedge would be comfy and go with everything – from jeans to dresses!
I love wedges! My go to shoe is definite my Chuck Taylors…I know sad, but when I wear jeans, they are my favorites. I love wedges during the summer though!
My ideal wedge would be either brown or black. I like that these are silver though, it would force me to step outside of my usual. Great giveaway!

What is your favorite go-to shoe/sandal? I have a pair of Chinese Laundry silver glitter ballet flats. I always get compliments, especially from little girls! =)
Describe your desired wedge. If it’s this one, say so. If not, make sure to tell me what you’d like, especially if you don’t want something so tall
I like a pretty cork wedge and metallics do nicely! Maybe not quite so high. A couple of inches will do!
Mention my giveaway on your blog and provide me a link back saying you did so.

Done!
Yay! I love those wedges and you’re wearing the jacket! So cute on you!
Myself am addicted to my Stetson boots… But have a pair of gold cork wedges to debut when it gets a little warmer
My go to shoes are flip flops…the easiest then lugging around a hefty toddler!
I love shoes and my favorite wedges are tan cork. They are very comfortable and I wear them all summer long. They’re a couple years old and could definitely stand to be replaced.
Neutral wedges. Make my legs look awesome and I can still walk in them!
I love wedges! I have a blue, peep toe pair that not only make me taller (I’m 4’11, so no amount of inches will make me really tall!!) but they are super comfy too!
Those wedges are adorbs! Wedges really are the best of both worlds – height from the wegde, but easier to walk in, like flats (and unlike heels!)! My go-to shoes are black flats with a wedge heel and metal grommet decoration on the toe.
My go to shoes are sneakers.
I really like the wedges you have shown here. The color is great!
OMG!!!!
These weges are EXACTLY what I am looking for my preggo feet this Spring!! These are my PERFECT wedges! I seriously was looking for this style and color for my baby shower dress!!!
I am linking this in my post tomorrow morning!
Flip flops are my go to summer shoe…there is nothing easier! I wear a lot of cute flats during the winter…I’m on my feet all day and heels just don’t cut it! However, i love, love, love a good pair of wedges for dressing things up and going out it! Fun!
Shanna, you are so incredibly generous! My go-to shoe totally depends on my mood. Some days, it’s my favorite black flats…other days, it’s my kick ass purple suede pumps. Summertime…definitely flip flops!
awww what a lovely giveaway!! I am currently loving our cali weather!! weeeeee 75*!!!
I hope your week is off to a great start!
xoxo!
My fav go-to sandals would be my Fit Flops. They’re so comfy!
Those wedges are nice and I would love to win them. I do prefer wedges with studs and in a non-metallic color that are comfy, but the ones you’re giving away is lovely too
Thank you so much!

My go to shoe is usually my bright pink stilettos, I love them so cute…not very practical though, and I love those wedges I’m a shorty so I’m all about the heel.
My favorite go to shoe is my blue and grey plaid heels with a little buckle. They are cute and sexy! I am also a huge fan of my uggs…gotta be when its -15 degrees!
My desired wedge would be really girly/sexy and a little lower in the heel. Any ideas? LOVE your fashion sense!
as lame as it sounds, my go-to shoes are my tan rainbow flipflops – hey, I live in Florida and anytime I’m not stuck at work, I want to be in the sun
My favorite wedges are high, strappy, girly and fun! I have a few pairs that I love, but you can never have too many! these are way cute
I’m an engineer, but I like to have my girly fun too!
I LOVE SHOES!!! My go to’s are black and pointy with a skinny heel. But I also LOVE shoes that are different — shoes that people see and are like WOW I LOVE THOSE!!
My favorite go-to shoes are my black Blowfish flats or my stacked heel boots for the winter.
My ideal wedge would be comfortable and have a unique color that would be the center of any outfit.

I love boots! I can’t get enough of them! You can mix them up with shorts, dresses, skinny jeans or leggings! LOVE!
I love any wedges! I like a color that will go with anything, or a pop of yellow to add some fun to your outfit!
my favorites are stilettos! so flattering and fun to wear… as long as I have cab $ for the end of the night ; )
ahhh what an amazing giveaway!!! I would totally love to rock those wedges! I only really have one pair of wedges, but I adore them! They are black suede and wooden on the bottom
This giveaway is awesome! My favorite go-to shoe in the winter would have to be my brown/or black knee high boots. In the summer? I’m all about the flip flops
If I were to win this giveaway, I’d love these wedges. I love a wedge that gives my 5’3 frame some height!
My favorite go-to shoes are wedges period!
I like wedges with some height to them.
hehe, I like feeling tall.
My go to shoe is either a pair of designer sneakers or flip flops. I cannot wear high heels because I am so tall. I am also not much of a partier so I keep it pretty low key with my shoe choices!
If I were to get a pair of wedges, I wouldnt want them to be too high and I would want them in a color that I can wear with jeans as I wear jeans ALOT!
I hope I win!
I am Canadian! I am soooo happy to see that we can finally enter a contest also!!!!! I love the wedge! I have messed up knees from years of standing on my feet as a waitress, so a wedge is the only shoe my poor knees can handle! I love the look of this shoe! It is the right colour that would match any outfit!

Since I am short, my go to shoe, is anything with height! I love heels and in the winter, boots!
My perfect wedge would be one that goes well with jeans or dress pants. Preferable a nude, brown, or black! These look awesome!
I hope I’m not too late! I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect casual/dressy wedge and it seems you’ve solved all my life problems
My silver Gianni Bini gladiators have been through hell and back, and still look fab. I’m in them 75% of the summer (when I’m not in running shoes, obv)
