never too early to think about summer shoes

Or too late for winter ones.

Do you remember when I was thinking about getting gold clogs? Let me refresh your memory. Well, I never got a pair, much to my dismay. Recently, however, I was contacted by Ugglebo Clogs (pronounced ooo-glee-boo, as I discovered on the FAQ page) and asked to take a look at their site.

They have been hand-making Swedish clogs since 1965. Now I have never seen a pair in person, let alone tried them on my feet, but they do look beautiful and carefully made. The problem, I think, lies in choosing.

The main page has some lovely collections that are ready to be sent to you (particularly these adorable shearling booties), but I really was interested in the “Customize Your Clogs” button. I clicked on it and my head exploded. So many categories, so many options! Heel height, base color, sandals, traditional, patent leather, suede, patterns and colors! Oh, my!

After going through all the categories and collections, these would be my picks:

The Milan. My favorite. Super cute in navy. Plus, who can resist a scallop edge? I picture these worn with rolled skinny jeans. Perfect for plant shopping this spring.

The Panama. I like this in the mint leather shown. A patent navy would be fun, too (what can I say, I’m looking for navy shoes…). Great with short shorts to show of your legs.

The Tasman would be perfect in cherry red. These could pair nicely with a ruffle-y white skirt for attending those summer fairs and picnics.

Of course, all of these can be made in metallic gold.

I’m just sayin’…

They also have some really cute new styles coming out for summer. Wedges, anyone?

So check them out, if you are so inclined, and let me know what you think. Sandal season is coming!
