The clog: to love or to hate?
The controversial clog has had a glamorous reinvention on the runways this spring. Harpersbazaar.com reports in its “20 Top Trends for 2010” that clogs are now at the height of fashion, seen at the ready-to-wear shows of respected fashion houses: clogs teetered on lofty heels in luxurious silvery snakeskin at Chanel; Louis Vuitton adorned ornate kitten heeled clogs with supersized fluffy tassles, chunky buckles, and even its monogram.

The trendiest of bloggers and fashionistas are even trying clogs on for size. Alexa Chung sported them in January with a sweet white frock and gray tights at the Chanel show. Rumi Neely, author of her personal blog, Fashion Toast, couldn’t resist a pair of Mui Mui clogs that she announced are “the exact combination of way too high and almost ugly that I’m looking for.” Together with a sheer fringed dress, she looked gloriously bohemian.

Pair clogs with a blazer in a bold fabric like tweed to protect yourself against the brutal Syracuse winter. As the sun finally begins to peak out after months of solid gray skies, throw on anything ultra feminine. Chunky and unpretentious, these clogs could be an adventurous student’s new best friend. On the other hand, they may seem too fuddy-duddy to look at for more than a hot second. How do you weigh in? Love ‘em, hate ‘em or have to have ‘em?
