UPDATE: This post has been updated on July 28, 2010. Scroll down to see the new adds.

Acne‘s Atacoma wedges have been lusted after and obsessed over countless times after Alexa Chung has sported a pair on her now cancelled MTV show. They sold out as soon as they hit the virtual shelves of several online shops, have been restocked again, then sold out again. If you are a EU size 37 you can still get them for a steep $620 (€430) at MyTheresa. Cheap, I know!

Jeffrey Campbell 99 Zip Wedges

While these wedges by Jeffrey Campbell are not as high as the Atacomas and also don’t have the silver platform, overall they are still a good and affordable alternative.

Alexa Chung is quite the fashionista. A few weeks ago she wore a pair of lustworthy black Acne lace up ankle boots which had a silver wedge heel and started a shoe craze among the fashion blogger scene. The wedges sold out within days after Alexa wore hers on her MTV show, but I was able to locate an online shop where you can still get hold of them. Yay!
