The Perfect Patent Wedges

-♥-

Last weekend I went shopping at a retail park near where I live. I have been looking for quite a while now for some slip on heels or wedges which I could wear during the day and at night. I am very petite and want to be able to wear heels during the day and know that they won't hurt me. I am usually a size 3 and find it really hard to find slip on heels that actually stay put on my feet I usually have to opt for strap on heels which sometimes it gets really annoying because it limits the style of heels I can buy.  

I went into a shop called Next and went into the shoe section. I was trying numerous heels on and came across some black Patent Wedges. I tried a size 3 and a half on and they fitted but were slightly loose but thought using my footsie toe things (I don't know the exact name for them so I'll insert some photographs below so you know what I am on about) would work but unfortunately the Next shoes did feel slightly loose still but decided to still buy them and make a decision on them once I got home.

 These are from Primark and you get two pairs in a pack for £1.50.


After buying the Next wedges I ended up going to Asda (Wallmart) and stumbled across a pair of black patent wedges in a size 3. I tried them on and they seemed to fit really well better than the Next ones.The shoes are very narrow fit which is why I think they suit my feet really well. 

I just wanted to show that sometimes some dearer shoes might not actually be the perfect fit. When I compared both the Next and Asda shoes there isn't much difference between them so why pay £28 for some shoes that don't fit well and pay £14 for some cheaper ones that fit really well. It's crazy!

As you can see them are very similar in style and I am in love with my Asda pair so the Next pair will definitely be returned to the store!

They are both still available online:
