5. Women's Tall Red Faux Suede Desert Wedges by Classified

- Advertised as vegan: No, but the vendor describes these boots as synthetic.
- Pros: The shoes for when you want to ditch the stilettos but feel like a siren. Go for frayed high water jeans for a mod daytime look. Comfort and fashion for a super low price — they're a steal. Plus, the vegan suede stretches a bit so you don't have to worry about narrowness.
