The summer season is filled with backyard barbecues and outdoor events. However, if you’re a heels lover, grass lawns may not be your best ally when it comes to your style. So it’s best to skip the stilettos for these occasions and opt for more functional footwear — the wedge.
Wedges are a perfect alternative to a high-heeled sandal. The footwear provides more stability and can still be chic, especially for outdoor activities.
