Just as every season brings about some new soon-to-be forgotten clothing trend, lipstick shade, and handbag, shoes seem to be the one item that are getting more and more ridiculous every season. Sure, I'm all for going outside of the box--I mean, who wants to wear flip-flops all season?--but when shoes stop functioning as well, shoes, then we have a problem. Which brings me to the collar sandal. First of all, what exactly do these even go with? If you were to wear a skirt or dress, then you run the risk of rocking the cankle look. If you wear them with jeans, then wouldn't it be unpleasant to have your pants leg bunching up over the already awkward top of the shoe?
And suede? Isn't suede the worst material possible to wear in hot weather? Who wants to have ankle sweat while your toes are exposed?
But all practicality aside, these gladiator sandals-meets-ankle boots are just plain ugly. But if you can somehow find a way to pull them off, then we'd love to see some pictures.
