Wood is the way to go!

Chanel Clogs
Jeffrey Campbell "Charli" clog

Jefrey Campbell "Snick"

Well, after Chanel's wood bottom clogs appeared in the March edition of UK Vogue, all sorts of clogs and wood bottom shoes have hit the market. Here are 2 of my personal favorites....and 2 from my personal collection. On the upside, they are pretty versatile and easy to wear with a variety of outfits. I love clogs (even when they're not so popular) because you can just throw them on and go....lord knows finding socks and shoes is such a task ;) On the down side, these particular ones are not extremely comfortable (because the wood bottom has no flex) and are on the heavy side. The "Charli" clogs are a great knock off of the Chanel ones. They have a reasonable price point ($125) and come in a light leather, medium brown and black. They are a little hard to walk in because of their 5 inch heel and inflexible bottom, but if you're looking for this seasons hottest clogs these are THEM. I also recently purchased the "Snick", these are easier to walk in and still have a similar look. These are also 5 inch heels but since they are a wedge they are more stable. These too, have a reasonable price point ($125). These are great places to find this springs most recent trends: www.nordstrom.com (for the "Snick") and www.shopkitson.com (for the "Charli").....www.freepeople.com has the "Charli" too, but they are about $50 more expensive. Cheers to clogs! I hope they stick around for awhile.
