To clog or not to clog?

Recently I made the mistake of telling my friends about my obsession to find the perfect pair of clogs.
Upon hearing this idea, every one of them have displayed an extremely repulsed facial expression. This look of horror is usually accompanied by unkind words about my mental health...

I have been quick to reassure them all that I am NOT talking about purchasing the monstrosity that is the 'Croc'.

Are they burning your retinas yet?


So much rubber-



-so many colours!


This heinous excuse for footwear is usually reserved for overweight American tourists, grumpy chefs, scummy mummies, and our favourite little blue friends The Smurfs!

NOT FOR ME!










The type of clog I am in fact referring to is something along the lines of these sturdy studded stilt-like stompers. Sure, the Chanel Spring 2010 Collection footwear were a little OTT, but in Karl Lagerfeld I trust. I've always been quite partial to an eye catching statement shoe. These remind me of a pair I had in primary school in the early 90's, but without the platform heel of course.


























These more cobblestone street friendly
versions are (probably more likely to find their way onto my tootsies, for I am one clumsy lady) from the Swedish brand Hasbeens. The full range can be found for a fraction of the price of Karl's on their website listed in my links section.




siggie longlegs- curing the world of it's irrational fear of clogs.
