outfit post: in Clog we trust

Clogs. Love 'em. Hit the jackpot a few weekends ago when I scored two amazing pairs of clogs. You already saw the red pony ones here.  Now see these: Caramel colored leather, wooden heeled Steve Madden clogs. Mad for them, I am.
Simply bonkers.
Clogs seems to attract a love or hate thing. There are clog people, and there are stiletto people. I am firmly in the former's camp. Since clogs have gone all uptown lately, I've been seeing them on more and more people. 
Chanel people.

Prada people.
Jeffery Campbell people.


 E. Pluribus Unum, people! Unite!
In Clog We Trust.


Now Wearing: 
  • Mui-Mui sunglasses (2006)
  • Grey jersey smock top, Urban Outfitters (2007)
  • (not seen)  jean short-shorts, Thrift Town
  • Vintage brown leather shoulder bag, SPCA Thrift
  • Steve Madden wooden heel clogs, Thrift Town

Hmm, not so much a fan of the clog, although they do look quite comfy. I reckon I'd forever be slipping out of the back though, my foot needs tethering into things...:p

Sara Kristiina said...

I've never been one of the clog people, but I must say, your dress and bag are fabulous!

Your dress is so cute! I love the little ties. I'm a clog and stiletto person, mostly because I'm so indecisive lol I actually had a pair very similar to these clogs back in high school (quite some time ago!) but I've since gotten rid of them. Now you have me wishing I didn't!!! They are fabulous. xx

Lynzy said...

luciana said...

Looks really great on you, dear :)

the Citizen Rosebud said...

Thank-you Luci Ana.
Some people I can't even imagine wearing clogs, or stilettos. I'm talking about Sara. Sara you are too elegant for clogs, I fear. <3
Clogs are ugly, so for those who can appreciate the beautiful in ugly they are the shoe of the season!

Isquisofrenia said...

i think looks really good with that dress your wearing!

Unknown said...

Thanks for the flower correction :)
I hate to make big boo-boo's like that. They really did look like unusual daisies, but the park wasn't forthcoming in tagging them, So I chose to call them daisies. Thanksagain, now I wish i'd gotten a nip of seed to try to grow some ;)
I love clogs and have scored 3 pair in the last month! It's funny, in Cincy, soo many people give away stuff that I'm into. I'm either ahead of the "game" or behind ?

the Citizen Rosebud said...

I'm with you Reva, so behind, we're ahead!

GRIT AND GLAMOUR said...

Ha...I love it. I'm a JC clog girl, but I've been wearing all manners of clogs my whole life. But I can't say I wasn't super excited when all the high-heeled chunky clogs came out. Whoopee! Feeds the 70s boho child in me.

Great clogs...you're going to wear them to death.

You're right about clog and stiletto people. I however am a ballet flat person who wears heels because they make everything look good!!

I just got myself a pair of clog sandals today! I love sandals, but the closed ones are not for me.

I love clog sandals, like those adorable Swedish Hasbeens. Looking forward in seeing your new pair in a future outfit post, Raquel!
