The Perfect Shoe for Summer 2007

We absolutely adore these Kork-Ease Bette Ankle Strap Metallic Wedge sandals. Because Kork-Ease are known for their comfort and quality, we think the $185.00 price tag is not unreasonable. You'll wear these all summer long, and the wedge won't wear out. Plus, they match just about everything and can be worn for most any occasion. And with ever-rising hemlines, you'll appreciate the 1.5" suede platform and 4.25" wedge heel that these kick-ass shoes provide.

Featured here in bronze, the Bette Ankle Strap Wedge comes in a range of colors (available at Zappos.com or Shopbop.com)—the hardest part will be picking just one!
