The Controversial Wedge-Boot Trend Is Back Thanks to Ana de Armas
What's old is new again. Wedge boots haven't been hugely popular with mainstream shoppers for at least a decade, but I have a feeling the tides may be turning. After spotting Ana de Armas wearing a Louis Vuitton pair, I started scouring the internet for other wedge boots and actually struck gold with my findings.
Both luxury and contemporary brands alike have jumped on board, including Jimmy Choo, Stuart Weitzman, Valentino, Steve Madden, Schutz, and Marc Fisher. How's that for a convincing stamp of approval? Scroll down to see how Ana de Armas styled wedge boots with a mini dress on the red carpet, and shop the trend if you're feeling inspired.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
