Look Like a Million Bucks with Heeled Clog Sandals and the Right Bag

Ever wondered how celebrities manage to look so good even when they are wearing something ordinary and normal?

Well, there is no secret to looking great effortlessly.

It all lies in how you decide your look and outfit for the day.

What most ladies do is spend hours in front of their wardrobe, trying to decide on what clothes to wear.

Once that is done, they put on their make-up and slip on any footwear that is lying in front of their eyes or at the top of their shoe rack and get going.

The same goes for the bag they carry.

To look like a million bucks without spending a million bucks, you need to give more thought to what you wear in addition to the clothes as they help to amplify your look and add stars to your personal style.

We are getting at accessories, bags, and most importantly, the shoes you wear.

It is important that the shoes which adorn your feet and the bag you carry complement each other as well as the outfit you are wearing.

It is not possible to own matching shoes and bags for every outfit you have because, unfortunately, good shoes and bags do not come at rock bottom prices. We are not even going to the high-end labels here.

Once in a while, splurging a bit doesn’t seem wrong, but you cannot afford to carry your limited-edition Gucci bag and your Louboutin’s every day, can you?

Heeled clog sandals are the best option when it comes to dressing up smartly and economically.

They look great and are so comfortable that you would be wearing them all year.

Mostly made of cowhide leather, these plain Jane shoes are more than what you may think about them at first glance.

Heeled clog sandals have heels made of wood, are chunky, and extremely versatile.

This means you can wear them every day, with every outfit, be it formal or casual, morning or evening and summer or winter.

About the bag, you can style your look with either an oversized tote bag or a structured handbag or sling bag in leather, faux, or patent or PU.

There are strappy clogs, completely closed clogs, and ones with an open back and closed front.

As large chunky shoes are the flavor of the season, buying more than one pair of heeled clog sandals in different styles will see you through the winters as well as summers.

3 Steps to Selecting the Right Pair of Clogs

The large number of clog designs available in the market means first time buyers have a hard time choosing which design and which variant to go for. While all clogs are equally good, they are also different at the same time. Picking the right clog involves some research and determining what factors you need to take into consideration before buying one.

There are not a lot of guides on buying the right clogs on the internet, so we decided to create one for your convenience. The following steps have to be taken into consideration to get the perfect pair of clogs, just the way you like it:

Step 1: Choose the Bottom/Heel Type

The most distinct difference between different types of clogs is the bottom part or heels. You might want to start by first deciding which kind of heel you want. Different clog variants have different heels, such as high heels for heeled clogs, flat bases for women clog sandals, high-rise but flat based wedges and low heels for clog boots. Once you decide on the heel styles, 50 percent of your work is already done.

Step 2: Toe and Back Design Considerations

After you are done with choosing the heel design, the next step to follow is to look for toe and back designs. They come in many configurations such as open-toe and closed backs, closed toe and open backs, open toe and open backs, closed toe and closed backs, and finally, straps or strapless. Your design should be based on the relevant occasion in which you plan to wear the clogs. If you want a pair of quick-sliding shoes, the open backs are the best. If you want clogs with room for feet to breathe, buying an open toe and open back one will be beneficial and so on.

Step 3: Design of Fabric and Color

The final step involves choosing the choice of upper material. Clogs come in many options such as canvas uppers, leather uppers, synthetic leather uppers, rubber uppers, suede uppers, fabric uppers and velvet uppers. The choice depends on the usage scenarios and frequency of use. For example, daily use clogs means suede, synthetic and fabric uppers, whereas clogs for once in a while use means genuine leather and velvet uppers. After this, the final choice comes down to picking the color, which can be almost any color due to the large number of colors clogs are sold in.

How Clogs Helped Me Increase My Productivity?

After completing my basic course in being a teacher, I had recently opted for volunteer work in a school until I got my certificate for preschool teaching. This job profile was the closest exposure that I would get in the world of education before I dived in deep into it. My future goals consisted of opening a school for the kids, and this was the first step to getting on-field exposure. I started working there, and everything was fine except for the constant pain in my calf muscles that used t get due to long standing hours in the school.

I kept avoiding it for a considerable amount of time until it becomes a source of frustration for me. It was starting to affect my productivity at work, and the principal was worried at the lowering graph of my work capability. She called me into the office for a session and asked me if I liked working at the school or was facing some issues. I had been dodging this unnecessary information that was the prime source of the problem for me for a long time. Even though I felt like it should not be discussed with the people, I went ahead and blurted out that I felt exhausted with the long-standing hours.

What started as random work-related feedback turned into a meaningful conversation when she smiled and showed me her feet adorned with clog sandals. She told me that when she began her career as a preschool teacher, she was also facing similar issues and it led her to be irritated all the time. Her grandmother came to the rescue and advised her to wear the clog sandals to work. At first, it felt like people would be looking at the feet all the time due to chunkiness of the shoes, but then the comfort that they provided was par excellence and helped in getting over the fear as well as the pain over a period.

She also mentioned that there was a sale going on in her favorite store of the clog sandals and suggested that I should visit it after the school got over that day. Today, I have accomplished all my goals and advice my school staff to wear the clogs to work every day.

Ladies!! Get Ready To Drool Over Vintage Clogs.

“What goes around comes around”-they said. Well, the clichéd expression chimes well with clogs.  Wooden clog sandals have come a long way from their Dutch origins. Back then, clogs were hand-crafted and made completely of wood since they last longer, do not hold moisture and insulate the feet from the ground.

Of late, the clunky wooden shoes have been re-imagined into a stylish fashion accessory that is a common sight on fashion ramps. Clog sandals worn today are not entirely made of wood. The upper portion covering the top and the sides of the clog is made of leather or rubber while the heel is left exposed.

The rubber type of clog sandal usually comes in a single color and has a strap that goes around the heel and is generally worn as a summer sandal. Clog sandals have evolved as a fashion accessory since they offer superior stability and leg comfort. They are easy to wear and easy to keep on the feet. Wooden clog sandals come in three different soles- classic, high and wedge.

Because of the ease, versatility, and protection it offers, wooden clog sandals have emerged as a staple footwear of many industry verticals. Professional clogs have to be extremely comfortable and durable since in many professions, wearers have to stand for long durations and it’s the feet that suffer the most in the process.

Nurses prefer clog sandals because they provide better lower back support and protect the feet from potential injuries like falling objects and exposure to harmful chemicals.

In recent times, clogs are being manufactured in such a way that they suit a host of occasions. There are dressy clogs, casual clogs, professional clogs, and wooden clogs. Dressy clogs fall between professional and casual clogs. They are clunky and have high heels and are adorned with ornate designs and embellishments.

Casual clogs are those which you can wear both indoors and outdoors. They have short heels which are made of wood. The upper part is made of inexpensive material like nylon or cotton. 

Professional clogs are one of the most expensive clogs and come in leather or synthetic upper options. They are mostly worn by chefs and nurses and employ low heels and are comfortable too. Wooden clogs now are machine-made and come in flat or high heels. They can be worn with a casual attire or a formal one.
