crocs?...

So far I've resisted the Crocs craze. I still remember the very first time I saw them a few years ago. A woman was wearing bright red ones with an otherwise fairly chic outfit. Hmmm... I'll just say, not a great first impression. My grandmother would have called them "clodhoppers." They may actually be the definition of "clodhoppers!"

The Boy has asked for some recently and I told him I'd think about. I guess they're okay for nine-year old boys. I don't think flattering is in their vocabulary.

Anyhoo, I have noticed lately that Crocs are available in some more attractive styles. I wonder if they are as comfortable as Croc lovers claim the originals are.

These Sassari style Crocs caught my eye. I'm 5'2", so I'm addicted to heels(if sneakers didn't look ridiculous with a 3" heel I'd be all over them). So a flip flop with a heel could be a good thing. And if they're comfy they could be a very good thing.














And these Alice Crocs would be pretty cute for the girls.











Maybe I'll rethink my Crocs aversion. Chime in. What are your thoughts?
