An updated Clog-lection

Clog round up from 2020 (and some I missed previously).

My first ever post on this blog (a mere 4 months ago) was a clog-lection. My have things have changed from that post til now. Running through why some things ultimately left to find their new home:

I have said bye to my Swedish Hasbeen’s boots and T-Straps (first and last in photo). The Boots were a whole size too big, which didn’t bother me a first, but proper fit is truly important. A slight bummer for me because they were something I bought myself for Christmas a few years ago. I am not a huge fan of T-Straps, so I have learned. And really, I do not find Hasbeens to be as comfortable as some of my other clogs. Glad they found new homes.

You might see Bryr Fennel in here twice - I sold my T-Straps (4th down) to another lovely collector of Bryr on Poshmark. These were a 7 (I wear a 6 in Bryr) and were again bad on the fit. My mom kindly gifted me a pair of Bryr Chloe’s for Christmas from their sample sale. I really missed this color in my collection.

Now on to the update....

What I kept and purchased, from top going from left to right: No. 6 New School Wedge Clog, Sanita Floral Embossed Metallic, MIA Gertrude Silver, Mia Greta Natural, Bryr Chloe in Fennel, Bryr Chloe in Agave, Madewell Kiltie Clog, Mia Elsa Clog.

No. 6 New School Clog - They have been mentioned on the blog before, but these are some of my new favorite shoes. Still slightly uncomfortable on my bloated days, but I do love them. Not really great to walk around in for long stretches of time though. Great light color neutral though.

Sanita Floral - Truth time, I didn’t include these previously as I didn’t wear them much after purchasing them a year and a half ago. They are for sale on my Poshmark closet, but literally have gotten no traction, which kind of makes me sad. I will admit, that Sanita doesn’t have the best base for my foot. On the bright side though, they are a great shade of rose-gold, not quite a true rose gold and not quite a Champaign (which I think they are called). So it’s still a great neutral and has some fun interest because of the embossed pattern.

MIA Gertrude in Silver - also for sale on Poshmark, that we’re included in my first roundup. They aren’t as high as I would like, which makes it harder for me to walk in. Not too crazy about open toes. I do think they are fun, I just am not adventurous enough for a bright metallic shoe.

MIA Greta in Natural. These have patina’d nicely. While I wore these all the time when I first got them, I haven’t found myself gravitating to them much lately. I might break them out with some socks soon. I don’t find myself getting rid of these even if they’re open toe.

Bryr Chloe in Fennel & Agave. Fennel is a repeat color for me. I do really love it and missed having it in my shoe collection after selling the T-Straps. It goes with everything! My mom purchased me a new pair of Chloe’s in Fennel from the recent Bryr sample sale as a Christmas present. Agave has to be my most worn clog this year. I will keep my Bryr love brief right now, but I highly suggest the brand. They feel lovely and are well made by the most bad ass group of ladies. (Hi Bryr, please sponsor me! :D ).

Madewell Kiltie - I am on the fence on these still. I find the pitch to be a bit more like a high heel than a clog, but I really like the fringe and heel height. I haven’t paired them with enough items in my closet to truly make a statement on if they are going to stay. So far, so good though. Typically Madewell is not somewhere I shop (to be fair I got these off Tradesy) but I find myself looking at their other shoes/clogs from time to time. Very good quality for a mid range price.

MIA Elsa - I mentioned last time that these were my most worn, but my Bryr’s have taken the cake at this point. I still enjoy these a lot though. I do notice a lot of color transfer when wearing which is slightly disappointing. But for price point, Mia is a great quality for the price. If you’re thinking about purchased, do it directly from them as the deals are better.

Hopefully that was a quick round up for you all. Clearly, I love clogs, quite possibly a bit too much.

Until next time,
