The whole clog phenomenon sweeping the world of footwear really does tell us that if the fashion house of Chanel does it, the world will follow.
I can honestly tell you I really did not like the clogs used in Lagerfeld's new collection for Chanel.
For those of you who have forgotten, here is one of the creations:

However I stumbled across Vera Wang's version of the clog, and I must say have changed my tune.
Vera Wang Lavender Label Daisey hidden-platform clog, $325, available at Vera Wang
Instead of a literal translation of the clog, she has modernised it with buckle detail and cross over leather straps. The shape of the heel as well, gives it a bit of an edge from the traditional clog.

I agree, I really don't like the Chanel versions (something I never thought I'd say), but I love the other version!
Your beautifull...

i'm so glad you pointed out the whole "clog-mania!" i'm not a fan of it at all - however these clogs do look more like booties and i have thus changed my tune.
gorgeous shoes!

Well, this time I will say 'no' to Karl. I don't really like them!
Vera Wang's interpretation are much, much better than the Chanel version. But I'm not a fan of clogs in general. I had a pair in middle school (or high school?) and I remember that they were hard to walk in!
Interesting... I'm would probably always say a firm no to a pair of clogs (at least worn in public) but this pair by Vera Wang is indeed nice. The proportions are good!
And I want to warn you (saw your earlier post), I live in Finland and we have Dinsko here... The shoes are crap quality (+ sweatshop stuff) and incredibly uncomfortable most of the time. Unfortunately.
we;ve scheduled a post on those too this week, they are amazing, only clogs I could wear, love the biker edge!
We'll definitely be back!
Hope you had a lovely weekend.

I totally agree, I can't stand the Chanel clogs but those Vera Wang ones are really nice, a definite improvement :)

I said the same about clogs in my blog

I can say vera wang did a good job there but still...clogs are not my thing
agree with you on the Vera Wang's version of the clog. but i reckon it'll still be quite tricky carrying off a clog without looking like you're going to a wet market... hehe
not a fan of clogs but definitely don't mind vera wang's version!

the Chanel version is HELLA old school! I love the Vera Wang clog..I have a Michael Kors version I bought either last year or year before and they are still in my shoe rotation..hehehe.

i'm surprised that those vera wangs are not completely hideous, but i have yet to see a good looking pair of clogs.
clogs were a part of my staple wardrobe back when i was six in the nineties...you can't imagine how i excited i am that they are now back. Love love love vera wang's version...epic
