I’m a big fan of Stella McCartney! Very much like with Prada and Miu Miu I might not approve of EVERYTHING that is shown on the runways, but when I find myself liking something from these designers chances are high I really, really LOVE it. Case in point: Stella’s “Maia” cork wedge from last year. Despite the remote resemblance of Birkenstock shoes I am still highly attracted to this wedge. Also, how genius is the pink lining? It’s small details like these that can turn a good shoe into a truly great one. What’s not so great about it? Oh yeah, I forgot… the steep price of $735. Also the fact that it’s sold out.

Dune “Nina D” Cork Wedge Sandals

UPDATE (05/20/2011): And here’s another fabulous Stella McCartney look-a-like by Dune for all the UK/European Maia fans. Bonus: everything on their site is on sale right now! These cork wedges here would normally cost £75, but are currently down to £60. Not sure when this promo ends though, so you better order fast if you want to take advantage of this sweet deal.

BCBgeneration “Crespo” Wedge Sandals

Thanks to BCBGeneration, we can now rock our own Stella McCartney wedges for a fraction of the price. Their “Crespo” wedge sandal is an almost identical copy of the “Maia” even though I wish it had the same hot pink lining as the original. But at $71.99 I am not one to complain. Available in gold, stone, black/white and light peach (shown below).
