Strappy Clog-Inspired Platform Sandals For Summer! (thefind Guest Post)

by

Post via our friends at thefind.com:

Don’t ask me why my mother had me wearing clogs when I was in 3rd grade, but if you had asked my far-less-stylish self back then (or maybe just extremely fashion-forward self) if I thought the shoes I was rockin’ would become cool again within the next 2 decades, I would have thought you were crazy. Leave it to the unpredictability of fashion trends to prove me wrong, because modernized clogs have been having quite the moment for the past year or so. And despite their clunky, chunky stereotype, they’ve proven to be surprisingly versatile to suit the passing seasons. Aside from the classic silhouette, clog booties tore it up during the fall and winter, and now clog-inspired sandals are coming on the scene to sweep up the espadrille competition. Slightly dressier than straw wedges but still undeniably summery and casual-cool, clog sandals are on-trend without being ostentatious or wardrobe-limiting — they go with almost anything!

Trek Through Spring with Hiking-Inspired Booties (thefind Guest Post)

by

From our friends at thefind.com:

It’s hard to think about booties when the blogs and the shoe departments are all about throwing platform espadrilles and summer sandals in our face everywhere we look, but when it comes to shoe trends, I’m all about taking things one season at a time! After all, it’s still spring, and there are plenty of on-trend seasonal ankle boots to take advantage of before we move on to strappy sandal territory — especially the heeled hiking boot! Of course, we fashionistas have absolutely zero intention to hike more than a few blocks in these bad boys, but the style is cool and utilitarian yet undoubtedly fierce — sort of a more feminized answer to the flat work boot trend which was a bit more obviously menswear-inspired. Rock them with a pair of skinny cargos or rolled-up chino pants and a floaty blouse and make the most of your spring booties before it gets too sweltering outside!
