I have been wearing flats since I got pregnant, and now I am tired of being short. 
So I have decided, once my broken foot heals and I can wear shoes again, that I want some comfortable, everyday wedges. Something easy and casual and not crazy tall.
Recommendations, anyone?

I got a super cheap and super comfortable pair from Famous footwear. I think they're Fergie's brand or something. I could wear them all day every day.

I got my favorite wedges at TJMaxx! I'm not wearing them today or else I would tell you the brand, but when I get home I will look them up for you. I wore them well into pregnancy (I actually wore them up until my last day of work) and was very, very comfortable.
I also like Toms wedges.

I have a pair from Payless Shoes. American Eagle brand.
Hope your foot heals quickly!

@avivoca: Ooh I like the idea of TOMS ones. They are pricy but I will probably only be buying one pair so it might be worth the splurge if they are comfortable.

I have a pair from Payless as well. I think they are the dexflex comfort brand or something like that. Very comfortable!

I was going to recommend TOMS wedges as well. I work in schools and I've seen so many teachers wear them...so they're comfortable enough to wear all day long while dealing with kids!

@autumnlove: I just looked and they don't have the ones I have anymore. 
They're so comfy...

@Arden: My black wedges are similar to these: http://www.payless.com/womens/pumps-heels-wedges/

Actually, this one is almost identical to mine, but mine's in black. Looks like they just don't have the black anymore.

Another vote for Tom’s! The only complaint I have about them is the I have some black sequined ones and the sequins get rubbed off kind of quickly (like, the shoes don’t look “worn” at all, but there are spots where the sequins have worn off). I got them at Nordstrom Rack, so they were not too pricey.

@septca: @yoursilverlining: @LuLu Mom: @Sammyfab: @Pepper: @avivoca: This many votes for TOMS is very encouraging.
I don't have a Nordstrom Rack near me though... Does TOMS ever run sales?

@Arden: Yes! I've seen sales for 10-15% off and I believe you can go through ebates too. I'm in Canada and sometimes the rebate from ebates.ca is 10%!

@Tidybee: those are pretty!! Mine were gladiator type straps with a cork wedge. They were on clearance. Figures.

So as far as I know, the slip-on style wedge (my favorite!) made by Toms has been discontinued. Because of this, most online stores and other places are discounting this style. I swear just last week I saw a pair of slip-on Tom wedges for 33% off at Nordstrom.
The newer styles are strappier and have buckles, but I prefer the slip-ons! I have the black pair and I really, really like them.
My only advice would be to go half a size up!

This style. But it doesn't look like it is on sale anymore! Boo. I can check around, though.
Ebay is a really good recommendation!

I have these by Born/BOC and they're the most comfortable things EVER! (oh, and I paid a LOT less at DSW!)

@Rainbow Sprinkles: I have those exact same ones! Love them! And I agree, slip on is the way to go.

@Arden: Tom's Wedges are on sale today at HauteLook. Looks like most styles are $39.97 or $49.97.

So, I really want a pair of Corkswoons, but at $325, not in the budget for shoes. So I found a dupe on Amazon and they're surprisingly comfortable.
