Shoe Porn: River Island Wedges by Julian J Smith

Although it makes me sound a blue-rinse away from being properly old, I don't think I really have the chutzpah to wear the bold statement print leggings that seem so vital to the high street this summer. Instead, I'm looking to show va-va-voom in more subtle ways, and what's more subtle than brightly-coloured six-inch wedges that will undoubtedly make me fall in puddles?

River Island have a little treasure named Julian J Smith as part of their Design Forum, and he has created some killer heels to make up for the lack of sunshine. Look, you can even watch a nice arty video all about it:

I like the bit where they paint the old man's face and then it snows petals indoors.

The heels come in three different shades. I think the orange print are my favourites because I already know just the dress in my wardrobe that I'm going to pair them with.

The blue print is pretty special too, though, but I think I'd probably end up continually shoving them in everyone's face to show off that colour combo. No wait, I think these are my favourite.

The yellow ones scream for a night out wearing something my mother would hate. That definitely makes them a contender for favourite. Shucks - decisions, eh? They're all £55, which is a whole lotta fun for your buck.
