I must be sincere and admit that at first I absolutely disagreed with this clogs' revival. When I saw the chunky shoes on Chanel catwalk I was like "OMG, stay away from me" and I never thought I would have followed this trend and buy a pair.
But then I went for a walk and decided to visit one of my male friends who actually works for Prada. I was doing a little chat with him and I saw them... this pair of amazing sky-high clogs in cream were looking at me begging to give them a try. I coudn't resist. I started telling him I didn't even know Prada was doing a pair and he told me they've just arrived as a preview of the Autumn/winter 2010 collection. The damage had been caused already and I wasn't anymore able to stop myself from trying them on. As soon as I put them on they had to be mine - they were heavy yet chic, also not considering my improved height - the heel is about 5'' - but the price tag of Eur 400 stopped me from opening my purse and handle the creditc card to my inviting friend.
A few days after, I saw a picture of Garance Dorè - one of my favourite icon of the moment - wearing a pair of Chanel clogs, exactly the same colour I've felt in love with in the Prada boutique. Then again, a post from Caroline Bromst (check it here
http://caroline.feber.se/art/177298/woodies/) made me start my research on the internet to find a high-street pair to satisfy my desperate need of clogs. And it's even still cloudy and cold these days!
At the end I found this Chanel-isque pair - they pretty much look the same - on urban outfitters from Jeffrey Campell (the ones suggested by Caroline) at Eur 144.
Now that I'm looking forward to receiving my treasures, I've started thinking about how I should wear them. Take for granted that I don't want myself to turn into a hippie girl coming back from the 70s and wear them with very long skirts or exaggerate flares, so I was looking for some inspiration.
Wearing them my own personal way, I think I'll match 'em with ankle skinnies, probably white or very light blue and some silk top/shirt or a frilly feminine blouse.
Sooooo now! Ripped black skinnies with boyfriend jacket and those Stella McCartneys! Uh, that's impressive, girl! I'd almost wished I was her!
I love this outfit! like the cropped leather motorcycle black jacket and the over the ankle boots 
This look could seem too much at first sight but then you'll notice that each piece is perfectly matched with the others. I like the tartan mini dress wore with plain simple black leggings and the fur (faked?) belted waistcost.
I really like the checked boyfriend shirt matched with a sequined black t-shirt, what a cool idea!
The white belted tailored vest is what caught my attention here but I also like the cropped pants showing the gladiators
very simple outfit yet glamorous
the cropped grey jacket is amazing!
she's very boho-chic with those Minnetonka fringed boots, the acid jeans jacket and the beanie
