Did you know I am obsessed with all things Swedish?

It’s true.  Between the ages of 1-5, my family lived next door to a family whose  mother was from Sweden and she had a little girl named Annika who could actually speak Swedish. I thought this was pretty much the coolest thing in the world and for a good ten years I had a mason jar under my bed with money to fund a trip to Sweden.  Unfortunately it never seemed to get that full as I always needed to feed my addiction to gummy coke bottles. But the Swedish dream was always there just lurking out of site.

And the epitome of all things Swedish were of course CLOGS.

Was I the only one who desperately wanted a pair of clogs growing up?

I didn’t think so.

I remember Annika and her mother clomping around their home and garden with clogs on and it just seemed so chic compared to me and my mom and our red keds.  Oooh the glamour of YELLOW CLOGS. It seemed so impossibly cosmopolitan!

Then  all of a sudden a couple of weeks ago I started noticing clogs everywhere.

Like here in Strawberry Lemonade blog.

And just hit flickr and you’ll be bombarded by hipsters in clogs.

So my clog passion has been torched again. I think I saw like a half dozen girls wearing them at the Renegade Craft Faire even.

Check these clogs out. Here are my top four. Any suggestions on which ones to get?

Perhaps this yummy silver pair.

Or how about red polka dots. I mean seriously!

And these cause me physical pain, they are so cute!

And who doesn’t need a little hand painted chicken on their clog–check please!:

Stay tuned to see which clog makes the cut? Any suggestions on which on I should go for? Which one would you get? Suggestions, please!
