Summer Wish List: Platforms + Wedges

I'll be the first to admit that summer is far from my favorite season, but I am a pretty huge fan of big chunky sandals. The wedges I've had and loved for years finally bit the dust this past season, and the other pair I have are just a little too high for everyday use, so I'm on the hunt for a good pair that I can wear with everything, from shorts to sundresses (and well into fall with leggings and jeans).

So far these are my top contenders:

  • I love the mix of black and canvas on these espadrilles.
  • These frayed beauties would look so cute with some skinny jeans.
  • Still obsessed with pretty much every pair of Swedish Hasbeens I come across, and these ones are no exception. 
  • These are a little on the dressier side but the price is definitely a bit more reasonable compared to some others.
  • Such a dainty little pair of wedges!
  • I've never tried on any Toms other than the classic flat ones but I bet these are super comfortable.
  • I didn't think I'd like the whole flat platform trend, but actually now I think I'm kind of into it.
  • These might be my least favorite that I'm linking to. They're cute but they seem like they're almost a bootie, and I'd rather just have a bootie. Maybe they're a bit more sandal-y in person.
  • I love the lace-up detail on this pair.
  • These are really cute but maybe a bit too strappy for my taste.
  • Can't go wrong with black details and a chunky heel.
  • These might be my all-time favorites in this list. I love the height, the ankle strap, the combination of brown and white. It's kind of between these and the other Chloe ones (right here).

What I Wish I Were Wearing

I feel like I've gone on and on about creating a capsule wardrobe, and I've made good progress getting rid of all the clothes I don't like in my closet--now I'm in that weird in-between place of still having a lot to get rid of but needing a few new things to round out my wardrobe. I think not giving myself a deadline made this whole thing a little more difficult than it needed to be, so now that we're moving in September, I've decided to finally finish up the purging of my closet by the end of August so that I can live a month with basic pieces and then rebuild a few things once we get to the Bay Area. What do you think?

Having said that, I still catch myself wanting to buy a bunch of new things that I don't really need yet--so I found myself creating this little outfit mood board the other day. Being super intentional about only owning great pieces I can wear again and again means having a few outfit "drafts," right? (Also it's kind of a fun way to shop without buying a bunch of stuff.) Either way, here's an outfit that I don't own, but would love to have hanging in my closet.

I'll be posting more What I Wore looks again starting next week! Things have been so crazy lately that I haven't had a chance to shoot any with my photographer. Let me know if you like these kinds of posts, though, because I've always wanted to share them but wasn't super sure about it.
