It’s kind of complicated because I am only 12 years old, soon to be 13. I am also mostly broke. I would love for you to reccomend to me a pair of springy summer wedges that I can afford and are not too expensive. Dear Manolo,

I was wondering if you could help me pick out a pair of wedges. It’s kind of complicated because I am only 12 years old, soon to be 13. I am also mostly broke. I would love for you to reccomend to me a pair of springy summer wedges that I can afford and are not too expensive.

Manolo doesn't recommend shoes from payless. They may be cheaper, but that's because they're cheaper. My nine-year-old son, when properly motivated, can earn $60 in a month. I don't see why a girl can't. I have to pay $7/hr for babysitting here. Three short evenings and the girl has shoes! Those are really cute. Now, wait. Manolo doesn’t recommend shoes from payless.

Recommending the shoes of the sixty dollars to a 12-year-old is not superfantastic! Manolo! Recommending the shoes of the sixty dollars to a 12-year-old is not superfantastic!

THey were way 2 high. The highest heel I have ever had was 2 1/2 inches. Tone down the sparkles. I did like the ankle straps. I saw some at Target that looked similar for less than half the price. It was slightly depressing, but I must say that they were cuter. I am definitly not a fan of Shetchers, either. ( I don't think I spelled that right...sorry.) On a scale of 1-10, 10 being awesome, I would give them a 6. I am also 12, and I did not care for them. THey were way 2 high. The highest heel I have ever had was 2 1/2 inches.
