Y'all.
I'm not exaggerating in the title of this post. After owning and wearing them for about 2 months I have to report to you that the J.Crew Martina Patent Wedges are the BEST shoes I have ever purchased.
Check out these beauties:
Yes, I took this on my desk at work during lunch. Don't judge.
I wear these at work nearly every day. They are by far the most comfortable professional shoes I've ever worn. It's like you're not even wearing heels. I have trekked all the way to the Starbucks about 10 minutes away in these and not felt a thing {I can't do that in my Revas or in any other heel I own}. I have also worn them out several times and never had to change into flats. This is big for me. I'm a baby when it comes to heels.
Not to mention the patent finish is glossy and gorgeous. They look expensive and well-made.
Yes, they are pricey ($228.00). BUT... I got them on sale for 25% off during a sale (making them $171.00). I would wholeheartedly spend this amount again for these shoes. {FYI: I am NOT an expensive shoe girl. These are the most expensive shoes I've ever purchased. The second runner up would be my running shoes}.
I'm now plotting on how I can afford to purchase them in the apricot mist color this spring....
A few things to note: if you get these shoes, order a half size up! I did this based on reviews and am glad I did. They fit perfectly. I would have had to return them if I had ordered my normal size. Also-- the first time you put them on and wear them, they are extremely stiff. However they loosen up quickly and I felt that they were no longer stiff by my second wear.
Do you own any shoes from J.Crew? What is the best shoe you ever bought??

Oh I love comfortable work shoes and have been looking for a pair. Thanks for the heads up!
