Sorry WWW: Don't Buy Now = Clogs

Unless of course you wish to clomp around like a horse and pretend you are in the 90s. I know, I know, you are so into clogs because they were on much of the major runways for spring and summer {Gasp! Chanel!? - you know how I feel about that}. 

I cannot think of a more impractical summer shoe! The heel for one is extraordinarily clunky and you might say, "But Afton! It offsets the proportions of those extra miniskirts that are in by adding some weight to the leg!"

Well, my dear, this might be somewhat true. However, by 'adding weight to the leg' you are also making your miniskirt extra mini by adding 4-6 inches to you legs. Can you say a-hook-er (please note the shoes of hookers on the right)?? Additionally, the close toe says sweaty mess to me. Maybe not if you lived in a Nordic country. But def not here in 'Merica.

Save your pennies or invest your hard earned cash in a pair of shoes that can crossover from work to play like a solid pump in nude or a pair of gladiators sandals that are just refined enough to not make you look like you are straight out of Sparta. This way you can wear them with many things and get your moneys worth. All the while not straining your toes to keep this hunk of a shoe they call the clog on your feet as you sweatily slide around in them all day. 

Trust me, you will be glad.
