It’s been too long since I did a trend post. I’m not going to apologize — I’m just gonna make sure the time span is much shorter next time. So wedge sneakers, hey? It’s a touchy trend — some people love them and some people really hate them. I am in a “I think I love you, but I’m still not sure if I’m in love” mentality. I also have a pretty strong feeling these babies will be a trend we will look back on in 10 years and say “what the heck were we thinking!?” But that’s okay, because that’s all part of the fun of fashion. So without further ado, here are 9 of my favorite wedge sneakers on the market. I like to stick with the most wearable when it comes to trends.
There is something about that cobalt pair that is screaming my name, but the price tag tells me they aren’t really my type. I think that also makes me want them more. Funny how that makes no sense, yet perfect sense.
And since sometimes it’s nice to see a full picture before we either decide to totally LOVE or HATE a trend, here are a few easy ways to wear the trendy sneaker.
Dress and Denim Jacket – Ripped Jeans and Striped Sweatshirt – Maxi Skirt and Denim Shirt – Polka Dot Pants and Denim Shirt – Burgundy Pants and Striped Sweatshirt – Black Wedge Sneakers
Really, I would just replace ankle booties or maybe fashion sneakers with wedge sneakers and call it a funky, casual outfit.
What do you think; yay or nay on the wedge sneakers?

I might be too old and unhip but these are definitely a big nay for me!

I couldn’t even really tell they were wedge sneakers! They look like regular ole high top tennis shoes. I’m not fashion forward so they’re a nay for me, but I can totally see some of the ladies rocking the shoes with cute outfits.

Another nay here. Just not my type.

eep. Totally a nay here as well. I feel like sneakers and wedges just shouldn’t be mixed…

I hop onto many trend bandwagons and like to take some fashion risks but I don’t think I’m into wedge sneakers. I do love the look with skinny jeans and a sweater or chambray shirt!

yep no way I would wear those! haha. sorry! I love heels and traditional wedges but these look way too 80’s/90’s for me.

There is no way I could (or want to) pull these off
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
That’s a nay for me!

Just to make it unanimous . . . yikes. I just can’t bring myself to get with this trend. I am way, way too uncool. I like the red and cobalt ones the best, though. I love all the clothes combos you paired them with, though! I think I’ll have to just sub in actual wedges.

I’ve been seeing them everywhere and though I do have a couple of friends I know could & would totally rock them (in the fashion industry), I just could never confidently pull them off myself. But then again, I don’t like sneakers in general.

Nay!

This is just not a trend I can embrace.

Nope. Not loving this trend.

I actually love how pretty darn unanimous the nay’s are, it is always fun to look at trend objectively and see if it will work – next time maybe the trend I report will be a bit more yay in more books!

LOL. Man. I probably would wear wedge sneakers if I was in high school or college!
This mama of 2 definitely would not

I think theses shoes are cute and yes I own a pair of Isabel Marant wedge sneakers. They are my go to shoes when I am doing errands and taking my daughter to school. I’m a mom who’s into fashion and etc. I love to keep up with the trends even if I am in my 30’s. So a yay/yes for me.

I don’t get why most of you guys hate wedge sneakers! for me they look really nice… I got myself two and I am planning to buy myself some more

I like the sneaker wedges if they’re styled right
just bought a pair recently and I love them
guest
I really like the look of the wedge sneakers. I just bought a pair and can’t wait to wear them!!
guest
I actually got some sneaker wedges just a couple of weeks ago people are already loving them! It really depends what type you get, there are the normal ugly ones and then there are pretty ones which you have to search deeper for and may not find at a local shop.
guest
Definite YAY! I am a 35 y-o mother of 2 and I love these. I have a pair from H&M that are more boot like but definitely have some sport in them. I just bought the Sketchers Daddy’s money sneakers (similar to Chuck’s) in silver. I think these can be super cute depending on your personal style, regardless of age.
guest
I LOVE this style and I’m positive that all the nay’s will eventually turn into yay’s
some people just need a little more time to adabt to new styles.
guest
I love wedge sneakers! At first I wasn’t too sure but once I started seeing more ways to style them, I was hooked! I bought a pair of black ones as my starter pair just to see how it went and it turns out I wear mine all the time! I think I’d like to get a color one now. The cobalt ones looked so cute! This trend needs to stay a trend for a long time!
guest
As a really short high schooler, I would definitely wear these (when I’m more confident in walking in heels XD). Since my everyday outfit is jeans + a shirt / sweater I wouldn’t have a problem finding the right clothes to wear with it but for people with fancier tastes, it could look out of place and just ruin their style. But it’s great for a casual look.
guest
its a yay and love it just got a new pair and very happy abt it. all stylish and fashionistas should try it. it is waoh and casually correct
