Clogs

I live in Denver and it is not uncommon to see people wearing these shoes, which I think are hideous, year-round. I have been thinking about buying a pair for winter purposes for a while but they are remarkable expensive and let’s face it they are ugly and it would be a rare occasion when I actually wore them. So I never bought a pair but over the summer I received a pair via Freecycle. Yay for free stuff, especially free stuff that you kinda wanted but didn’t want to buy. So, I wore these shoes on my way to the office because Denver has been hit by a pretty bad snowstorm but I brought another pair of really cute shoes, although not very comfortable pair of shoes to change into. When I arrived to work my feet were a. warm and b. dry, so the shoes are great for their intended purpose, in fact my feet are so warm and cozy that I decided to keep them on. They don’t look too bad (I don’t have my camera). I am wearing an above the knee grey skirt, purple blouse, black cardigan, black tights, so I look very wintery. I mention that I think the shoes are hideous but warm and comfortable to my coworkers and they both say that they love these shoes. I work at a planning firm and not at a fashion magazine and we are in no way beacons of fashion but I was surprised to hear people say that they actually like them.

So, yay or nay on the ugly clogs?
