Trendspotting: Clogs

Clogs – a staple in every Swedish dancers’ wardrobe and a big hit in the mid 90’s – have made their way back on to the runways, notably Chanel’s Spring 2010. Celebs Ashley Olsen and 90210’s Shenae Grimes are also big fans of the click-clacking shoes, pairing them with short shorts and sun dresses last spring and summer.
While it might seem hard to work the backless shoe into your wardrobe, especially as we head in to winter, take a tip from the Alice Roi catwalk and throw them on with a pair of calf socks and a fitted mini. You’ll be strutting down the street in no time!
