Leave It To Sarah Jessica Parker To Make This Ugly Shoe Incredibly Chic

by Laura Lajiness Kaupke

There are two types of shoe shoppers: those driven by style and those driven by comfort. In the case of Sarah Jessica Parker, these worlds collide, sometimes controversially, as in the case of her latest choice in footwear. The style star’s recent fave silhouette—the wooden clog sandal—has been deemed ugly for as long as we can remember. In true SJP form, however, the look proves effortlessly chic despite being quite the departure from Carrie’s famous stiletto collection. Designers have started taking a style-centric approach to clogs via studded embellishments, blocked suede and trendy slingbacks, allowing them to pair well with breezy separates, warm-weather rompers and bright summer dresses (à la SJP herself!). These ugly-chic sandals are also one of our favorite style hacks for preventing ultra-femme pieces from feeling overly precious. So, whether you’re a comfort connoisseur or designer enthusiast, check out our edit of the best wooden clogs—at every heel height to boot.
