When Pretty Girls Love Ugly Shoes

Ok, after a somewhat lengthy hiatus I have decided to begin blogging again (not that I actually got into a habit of doing so).  But I am interning in Philly again for the Winter at Arcadia Boutique, and being back in this wondrous city has inspired me to get my shit together, and let my fashiony freak flag fly all over this blog.  Lucky you :)

After hmming and haahing over what to spend my internship allowance on (this store has the most amazing collection of EVERYTHING: jewelry, clothes, scarves galore), I slid my feet into these Swedish Hasbeens in the Sky High style.  After about approximately ten minutes of wavering, I decided to take the plunge, especially considering the flats I walked to work in pinched my little toesies. (Sidenote, I have little patience once I decide to purchase something, ten minutes was a long time for me)


I didn't know about the magic of Swedish Hasbeens until I started interning at Arcadia, but now I find myself lightyears better for plunging down this rabbithole.  The company is based in Stockholm Sweden, and their slogan is "Happy toffels make happy people."  Now I couldn't tell ya what a toffel is from a schnitzel but they are handmade AND environmentally friendly, double yeah!


Did I mention I got them on sale?!  I find myself wearing them with literally every outfit, tights and dresses with slouchy socks, jeans and blazers, and just clip clopping all over the darn place!  SO they may not be chunky Jeffrey Campbells or Frye boots, which everyone and their mutha has, but they are freakin awesome, and I just can't help but declare my love for them!  I love you Swedish Hasbeens clogs in soft buttery leather that are oh so comfortable, I love you!!  Check out Arcadia boutique or the Swedish Hasbeen site to slide into your own wooden clogs, you can thank me later :)
