According to the countless invitations hanging on my refrigerator door, this coming season is the summer of weddings. My dates have been saved, hotel rooms booked, and now there's one final—and crucial—element to plan: my ensembles. Since I can't splurge on every dress, I've decided to invest in one killer pair of heels. Whether they're amping up a pretty garden party-ready cocktail dress or my navy maid of honor gown, Nicholas Kirkwood for Erdem's embellished crepe heels are the perfect plus one for all of my upcoming affairs.
