Wedge Sandals For Women, Sorted By Occasion

Wedge sandals solve a specific problem: height and a long leg line without balancing all day on a thin heel. They matter now because more events sit somewhere between outdoor and dressy, and a wedge reads appropriately put-together without turning into a hiking sandal. My selects here sort what I'm browsing based on by occasion, from daytime plans through dinners to dressier nights out.

The White Sneaker Guide

A white sneaker is one of the most versatile closet staples. Here are the pairs I reach for on repeat.

Slim-Sole Sneakers

Chunky takes a step back: low-profile, slim-sole designer sneakers that blend comfort with polished, modern style.

The Kitten Heel Edit

A little lift, all day ease

Wooden Clogs: From the Swedish Workshop to the Spring Runway

Wooden clogs move from Swedish practical footwear to the suede-wrapped runway moment, with mules, boots and strapped silhouettes in the edit. I’d make the sole the outfit’s anchor and keep the rest of the line clean.

Black Loafers: The Norwegian Slip-On That Became a Closet Classic

A 1936 Norwegian farm shoe is the ancestor of every penny, lug-sole and horsebit black loafer here, which may be why the shape still works. Patent, suede and mule versions keep it fresh for fall.

Birkenstock Boston Clog Dupe: Cork-Footbed Clogs That Share the Look

This Birkenstock Boston clog dupe edit gathers suede, leather, shearling and platform clogs, plus two-strap cork footbed sandals, from other labels. I read the original's 1976 history first so I know which details are worth looking for.

The Polished Penny Loafer: Glossy, Red and Lug-Sole Styles

This edit gathers glossy penny loafers in black patent, red, lug soles and platforms. I picked pairs with a clean keeper, a polished upper and a sole with presence.

Valentino Rockstud Dupe: Studded Slingbacks, Flats and Sandals With a Punk Streak

This Valentino Rockstud dupe edit rounds up studded slingbacks, kitten heels, flats and sandals from other labels that share the pyramid-stud look. I would reach for a pointed slingback first and keep everything else in the outfit calm.

Ugg Tasman Dupe: Braided Suede Slippers That Share the Look

This Ugg Tasman dupe edit gathers look-alike suede slippers, clogs, slides and moccasins with braided collars, shearling or wool linings and soles for outdoor wear. I would pick the pair by its lining and sole first, then by its collar.

Rothy's Dupe: Washable Knit Flats, Mary Janes and Loafers to Try

This Rothy's dupe edit gathers knit pointed flats, Mary Janes, square-toe flats, loafers and sneakers from other labels that share the soft, seamless look. I started with the story of the 2016 original and what to check so a look-alike feels right.

Louboutin So Kate Dupe: The Pointed Stiletto, Drawn for Kate Moss

This Louboutin So Kate dupe edit gathers look-alike pointed stiletto pumps with a low-cut vamp and a slim heel, from black patent to crystal slingbacks. I wrote it for anyone who loves the shape and wants it from another label.

Shoes for Wide Feet: The Shop Gadget Behind the Letters on the Box

Our edit of shoes for wide feet covers flats, sneakers, ankle boots, block heels and slip-ons offered in wide widths. I explain what the width letters mean and how I would fit each pair.

Ferragamo: Autumn/Winter 2026: A Dialogue Between Past and Present

Ferragamo's Autumn/Winter 2026 collection returns to the 1920s, the decade of the house's founding, and reads it through workwear and sailor uniforms rather than costume. Maximilian Davis is showing now because that era's loosened conventions offer a way to talk about identity and etiquette shifting after dark, a theme he ties to his own family history. This edit follows the ready-to-wear and the shoes that carry that tension between discipline and fluid movement.

Loeffler Randall

Jessie Randall sketched the brand's first collection from a Cobble Hill garden apartment in 2004, her dog in her lap, while her husband Brian worked full-time in advertising to support them both. He cut up their wedding invitation and tucked pieces of it into the footbed of an early prototype alongside her middle and last names, which is how the brand got its own. Bergdorf Goodman picked up that debut collection in its very first season, and Jessie went on to win the CFDA's Swarovski Award for Accessory Design just two years later.
