What I've got on the brain this morning is....clogs. That's right, clogs. You know, makes you think boy of a with his finger in the dam, tulips and the paint can. All that Dutch stuff you think of when you think of wooden clogs (or is that just me?). But these are actually Swedish. (Go figure.)
Swedish Hasbeens to be exact. And look who's rocking them:
Pay no attention to the ginger sitting next to SJP...don't want to scare you on a Friday morn, now do I?
And another view:
But SJP doesn't stop there. No! She's got multiple colors, of course! More:
Oh, and not just with capris. Here's a fall ensemble (complete with baby):
On a side note, her kids are pretty cute. Anyway, back to the clog at hand...
People have been suggesting I buy clogs for years - they're the only shoes that won't hurt your back, they say - but I've been resisting because I either picture little girls picking tulips and clog dancing or my mom disco dancing in the 70s. Woah.
But if they're good enough for SJP, American fashion royalty...I might be swayed...
Oh wait, I forgot to mention something about these clogs - made by Swedish Hasbeen and shown here in the Peeptoe Super High style (shown above in "Nature" or "Olive"), in case you were wondering. Here's the thing: I thought to myself, "Fine, fine. Clogs. They'll help with my backaches and at least they'll be reasonably priced." Wrong.
These mammers are $202! Well, they're $154 (converted from Euro) plus $48 shipping from across the pond. Them's some pricey wood-soled shoes man! But are they worth it?
What do you think? Are they too hein? Or kinda cool? Do tell on this Friday morn! (What do you have to lose? Tell me what you really think... As if you're hard at work...) ;)

I kind of really love them!!! They're so wonderfully neutral too--you could wear them with ANYTHING! Sweatpants, a bikini... you name it, the clogs work with it.
ReplyDeleteBut fo' serious--me likey!
wooden-soled clogs (like dr scholls) will kill your back AND your mother wore pink snakeskin stilletos for disco dancing (thank you very much)!!
ReplyDeleteUm,i think this kind of defeats the purpose of comfort shoes. They are high-freakn-heals! Dansko clogs or bust, I say.
