HOW TO WEAR YOUR CLOG SANDALS THIS SUMMER

Searches for clog sandals have risen 50% in the last three months, with publications like Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Elle all naming them a breakout shoe of the summer. You might be thinking, 'surely not', but when you see the styles stepping into the spotlight this season, we guarantee you’ll be on board. A mainstay of 70s styling – also a key trend for summer – the clog is actually a really versatile shoe, and we’re going to prove it. From off-duty silhouettes to event-ready heels, these are the styles to know.

For something a bit more city-appropriate, choose true clog sandals – AKA something with straps for more security in your step. Channel an off-duty vibe with white jorts – a summer staple – a graphic tee and oversized sunglasses. If your office has a casual dress code, this works for that too.

Clog sandals are arguably all mules, but this pair from schuh are true mules. The sleek silhouette lends itself to 90s styling rather than 70s, so choose a monochromatic palette with linen trousers to channel the cool minimalist feel. When you’re keeping an outfit tonal, focus on bringing interest with texture – this floral-applique mesh top and crochet bag do just that.
