Nude Spring '10 Sneaky Peeky!

One thing that never fails to excite us here at the Frock is shoes. Well really, does anybody who is of the female species? A friend of mine recently announced that she'd bought her first pair of Louboutins on her recent trip to Europe, which was greeted with as much enthusiasm as if she'd announced she was expecting her first child. Another friend works in a cool shoe store, and our conversations tend to refer to shoes by their name, as if they were simply other acquaintances - "Seen Saskia lately?" "How's Avery doing for you?" "How cute is Billy!"

Nude is one of our most popular labels, with on-trend as well as classic styles that are reasonably priced  AND totally wearable (and really, you can't ask for more than that), Here's what we'll be getting instore shortly for Spring/Summer '10:

Avery Peeptoe Laceup Bootie $199.95
Cupcake Double Knot Peep Heel $179.95
Rainbow Witch Strappy High Platform $179.95
Wildrose Wooden Platform Sandal $179.95
Sugarplum Big Buckle Wedge $169.95
Chipchop Peeptoe Clog $169.95
Chipchop Peeptoe Clog $169.95
Buttons Skimmer Military Ballet Flat $99.95

Clogs. You Read That Correctly.

Continuing on with this week's footwear obsession, I was jolted awake from a bleary 5am start this morning when WhoWhatWear's newsletter stared out at me from my inbox, telling me to go buy Clogs. Like, now.

Sure, they're no doubt comfy and sensible, and I admit to admiring Gorman's take on the trend last week in their Paddington store. But aren't they, you know, kinda fugly? A bit like a more solid version of Crocs *shudder*?

Who What Wear reckons they're a" fresh and chic" take on the traditional Dutch style. Alexa Chung wears them, so they must be cool. Heck, it was Karl Lagerfeld who sent them down the runway in Chanel's Spring 2010 RTW collection in the first place, automatically making them desirable, according to fashionistas from Paris to Perth.

Mabe it's the Tasmanian in me, but I can still remember clogs in primary school. Maybe that's just 'cos early 90's fashion here was a little backwards, or maybe it's my hesitation at blindly copying the catwalks - remember the golden rule: if you can remember it the first time around, think twice.

At Chanel, they did look pretty awesome with the whole cute farmgirl thang. But then, it probably helps if you're a leggy 19 year old wearing your clogs with an impeccably tailored outfit. No doubt the imitation versions will be hitting our stores next season, but will you be trying this look?
