CLOG CRAZY!

Bonjour!

I dont know if you guys are on this new rapidly growing clog shoe trend...At first I wasn't too sure about the style because i felt it would be super noisy, unflattering and honestly, kind of ugly. I still think they are ugly, but now they are somewhat interesting. Ever since Olivia featured them in a post earlier this year, I was like okay..It's looking a little better. There is some hope. A friend of mine actually asked me to write a clog only post. By going through websites trying to find some dope ones, I actually fell in love with them. Of course I fell in love with the nontraditional type because i still think the traditional clogs are pretty hideous...but for the nontraditional ones, i can grow to love them... I personally will not buy a pair because i think even though I have long legs that these clogs will make my legs look a little stubby and probably make my hips look wider than they are. NO thanks! I do have an appreciation for people who can pull them off though...Kudos! Here are few of cool ones I found...

These clogs are beautiful! Fur, studs, and leather straps! A lot is going on but it somehow flows together. These wouldn't look like actual clogs with jeans on but rather an awesome boot. It would even be cute showing with a super feminine dress maybe with a military inspired jacket!
Bertie Dana Fur Clog $ 160.08(asos)
If I did wear clogs, these would most definitely be a pair I would buy in a heart beat! I've always loved Tribal/Azteca types of styles on  any item of clothing. I love that these are clogs/ platforms/ slingbacks with metal-tribal detailing....LOVE the combo! The heel is a higher than the usual clog and i love that! If these were cheaper, I would buy these today!
Dune Mandi Clog Mules $ 143. 23(Asos)

Traditional suede clogs mixed with a little fur around the ankle, low heel. Considering these are UGGS (gross.) I'm assuming they are well made and crazy warm! This is probably the cutest thing UGGS has ever made.
Ugg Lynnea Clog Suede $337.00(asos)


My ultimate favorite clogshoe! I've never seen a shoe that looks like this. Its a mixed between a clog and an ankle bootie, and look, more fur is involved! Obviously the fall is and will always be fur obsessed. I love the army green greige color of them too! These clogs are just all around dope and would definitely shell out $290 for them to be a part of my life!
Fur Cuff $290.00 (Topshop)



Bisou Bisou!
