In a fashion landscape where minimal effort reads as maximum style, the humble clog has quietly climbed the ranks to become the shoe du jour. No longer relegated to cottagecore fantasies or functional gardening gear, clogs are now a bona fide fashion flex. They've been endorsed by editors, models off-duty, and most recently, Jennifer Lawrence. The Oscar-winning actress was spotted walking through New York City in a pair of Rothy's Casual Clogs, a minimalist, eco-conscious, and machine washable take on the silhouette that's quickly becoming a favorite among in-the-know fashionistas. Styled with a sophisticated cream coat, slouchy trousers, and a flash of cherry-red socks, Lawrence achieved a chic, nonchalant, and unmistakably modern look.
The resurgence of the clog has been bubbling for a few seasons, thanks in part to high-fashion iterations. Dior made waves with its 2022 collaboration with Birkenstock, elevating the orthopedic staple with buckled hardware and couture-level embroidery. More recently, clogs have clomped down the runways at brands like Hemès, Bode, and The Row, each interpreting the silhouette through their own lens—equestrian elegance, Americana nostalgia, and minimalist luxury, respectively.
So why clogs, and why now? Well, we are living in an era that appreciates the art of understated luxury and intentional comfort, and clogs check every box: They're sculptural, easy to slip on, and strikingly versatile. Whether crafted from leather, felted in wool, or rendered in rubber, today's best clogs are less about hippie heritage and more about a grounded, grown-up coolness. They're the kind of shoes that suggest you know what you're doing—even if you didn't try very hard.

I Work At ‘Dateline.' Here's The 1 Question I Get Asked The Most — And My Answer Might Surprise You.

When I tell people I'm a writer at 'Dateline NBC,' I get a variety of reactions. Often I hear, 'Cool! What's Lester Holt really like?' Or 'Do you think that husband really disconnected his wife's oxygen tank while they were scuba diving on their honeymoon or was it just a bizarre accident?' However, sometimes I detect a look of mild horror, the kind I imagine trauma surgeons and cops get. It's a look that says, Wow, you spend every day immersed in all that darkness. Isn't it depressing? Actually ... no. When I first started at 'Dateline,' the show followed a different format. We covered consumer issues, did investigations and profiles (one was of a young and sunny Taylor Swift, no less), and offered plenty of human interest stories. But times change and so does the audience. True crime is where our audience went and we met it there with, I like to think, an arsenal of journalistic talents: expert storytelling that captures victims, families and killers in all their human, complicated glory; the highest standards of fairness; and maybe just as important as anything else, true respect for the lives that are taken and the loved ones left behind. Still, I admit the subject matter is dark. Nearly every episode involves a murder, or at least a disappearance. We do some powerful stories about the wrongfully convicted, but those people are usually convicted of killing someone. Death almost always figures into what happened in one way or another. I work on the 'open' of the show: the minute and a half at the top that highlights the most dramatic parts of the story. It includes things like: how many hearts the victim touched, how shocking the crime was, and how depraved the killer's actions were. In short, it's made up of the saddest, starkest, most potent stuff. Like my colleagues in this strange, very particular universe, I have developed an eye for small moments that reveal deep emotion, whether it's anger or grief. And I've written the words 'a chilling discovery,' 'a savage assault,' and 'a bizarre twist' more times than I care to count. So, yes … dark. And, of course, heartbreakingly sad. But depressing? No. Many of our greatest and most popular writers — including Stephen King, Gillian Flynn, Edgar Allen Poe and Agatha Christie, to name just a few — wrestle almost exclusively with sinister themes, like violence and murder. People don't tend to think of their work as 'depressing.' Spine-tingling? Yes. As well as engaging. Thought-provoking. I would argue one of the reasons great writers engage with this material is that the stakes in a murder mystery are so high. A human life is taken. In Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel 'The Hours,' Virginia Woolf says, 'Someone has to die in order that the rest of us should value life more. It's contrast.' But dark stories offer a flip side as well: the possibility for redemption, hope and understanding. This is such a fundamental paradigm that it resonates even with children. Studies show that fairy tales, many of which are scary, help children process difficult emotions like fear, envy and loneliness. This reassures children that they are not alone and that they're 'normal.' Fairy tales give children a safe place to explore these feelings and can teach them how to express and deal with them in an effective, constructive way. For grown-up readers, different kinds of mysteries may offer different kinds of sustenance. In an astute essay for Time magazine, award-winning novelist Tana French argues these stories mostly fall into one of two camps. The first, like those written by Christie, are about restoring order and seeing justice meted out. Her offerings are tidy, self-contained, feature a satisfying resolution — and go perfectly with a cup of tea. 'In a world that can often be chaotic and reasonless, we need these stories,' French writes. Others, which French dubs 'wild mysteries,' ask us to engage with deeper questions about human nature. 'What are we capable of? How much of who we are is determined by choice, by circumstance, or by nature?' French asks. 'The questions stay unanswered because they're unanswerable.' I like to think 'Dateline' gives viewers a bit of both kinds of stories. By the end of the hour, you will (almost always) know who committed the crime. You will know how. You will usually know why. But we take on the deeper, thornier questions, too, like how well do we ever really know another person — even one we're married to? Can a person simply snap? And, in an increasingly complicated world, what constitutes justice? I know some people say that shows like 'Dateline' serve up the trauma and pain of real people for the entertainment of our viewers. But the show's producers tell me that the victims' loved ones say talking about the case provides a kind of balm. They refer to their experience working with 'Dateline' as cathartic and say it leaves them feeling 'lighter.' They feel like someone 'important' is really listening to them and they trust that we will take their story seriously and tell it correctly. It can be a truly transformative experience for them. One producer also told me that 'Dateline' creates 'an important historical record of serious crime. Something that people can always look back on to see what really happened, told by the people it happened to.' In these times of rampant mis- and disinformation, this is no small thing. I believe our stories also resonate with viewers because, though the terrible people are truly terrible, the heroes we feature really are heroic — whether it's the detective who picks up the ice cold case and keeps digging until she finds the truth or the prosecutor who refuses to give up on the impossible-to-prove case or the sister whose hands grow raw from putting up 'missing' posters. These people's resilience struck me in an especially personal way several years ago. Though I'm fortunate to never have experienced violent crime, my mother died when I was a child. One otherwise-unremarkable day, I realized that I was older than she was when she passed. I thought I'd made my peace with her death years earlier, but on that day I was suddenly acutely aware of just how little time she'd been given on this planet. I was stewing in the sour juice of helplessness, bitterness and sadness when I started working on my next 'Dateline' story. As I began to go through the interview tapes to find the best soundbites, I found myself appreciating the friends and family members of the victim in a way I never had before. They had confronted the most terrible thing life could throw at them and somehow kept going in surprising, inspiring ways. The same is true of the loved ones in most of our 'Dateline' stories. Some of these people have actually helped solve cases. Others have found inventive ways to help other families going through similar trauma. But no matter what they've experienced, there's one thing they all share: Despite any apprehension about becoming public people — which in this day and age can be unpleasant or even dangerous — they went on national TV to make sure we knew who their murdered cousin, aunt or friend was. They spoke up to keep their memories alive. Their unbelievable strength has moved and healed me. I now carry some of their words around with me, like an aspirin for a headache, or a railing when I feel wobbly. I work on a program that some have called 'The Murder Show.' They're not wrong, but maybe toiling in a dark world makes the light more visible. Maybe it's only because of sadness that we even know and understand joy. Maybe it's injustice that allows us to appreciate justice. As Virginia Woolf might say, it's contrast. Lorna Graham is the author of 'Where You Once Belonged' and 'The Ghost of Greenwich Village,' and is a writer at 'Dateline NBC.' She has written numerous documentaries, including 'Auschwitz,' produced by Steven Spielberg and narrated by Meryl Streep, which competed at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival. Across numerous films, PSAs, and speeches, she's written for Presidents Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush, Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, and Morgan Freeman. She graduated from Barnard College and lives in Greenwich Village. Do you have a compelling personal story you'd like to see published on HuffPost?

What to wear to Glastonbury: 8 best celebrity outfits ever to help you pack the ultimate festival wardrobe

Glastonbury Festival. Aka the holy grail of fashion and music. A place where, according to Glasto style icon Alexa Chung, no matter how "terrible" your outfit choice is, "it still looks great." And so, for the lucky ones who managed to bag a ticket to the UK's grittier version of Coachella, you're likely now in full wardrobe planning mode. With many, perhaps looking back to previous Glastonburys for some inspiration, especially from your favourite celebs. Whether you're throwing it right back to 2007 Kate Moss, or looks from recent years are more your vibe (Maya Jama's 2024 Dior 'Plan de Paris' outfit was a standout), behold some of the best celebrity fits alongside their highstreet alternatives. How can we not start with Alexa? She's a festival fashion veteran, after all. In terms of this dress, it ticks all the boxes: stylish, comfortable, and goes with everything. At Glasto, you want something you can just throw on but still look like you've made an effort. Basically, you can never go wrong with a slip dress, rain or shine. Remember, you're going to be walking for miles, so you need something that blends comfort and fashion. This year, it looks like it's going to be good weather, so you may not need those Hunter wellies. (Pack them just in case, obvs.) Instead, opt for a pair of statement black boots like Dua Lipa. They're so versatile because they look great with different styles: from cute white lace prairie mini-dresses to frayed denim shorts. We *love* a two-piece. They're also really handy for festivals, as you don't have to think about how you'll make the rest of the outfit pop. The co-ord does all the talking! Be sure to pair the skirt/skort/shorts with a plain top underneath, like Maya did last year. This way, you've still got a fire outfit if you remove the jacket. Getting the right bag for Glasto can be tricky. It can't be too big, but it can't be too small. It also needs to match most of your outfits. If you're going for 2005 Kate Moss vibes, a black faux leather satchel that can hang over your body is a perfect shout. It's understated but cool, and can fit the festival essentials in like lipgloss, face powder, and your purse. Let's face it, even though the sun might be shining, there's always going to be a chance of rain at Glastonbury. It's the UK, after all. But just because you have to prepare for bad weather, doesn't mean that you can't make it fashion. Opt for a bright pop of colour when picking your raincoat, like Annie Mac did last year. If you're into the maximalist look, she also styled it with a lime green mini satchel and leopard print trousers, which is a whole festival inspo fit in itself. That dry shampoo not doing it for you anymore? As you near the end of Glastonbury (and not to sound minging), there's only so much a baby wipe wash can do. The solution? A good old hat. While Saffron Hocking understood the method dressing assignment, going for farm chic, there are so many headwear variations you can go for. For example, last year, it was all about the furry bucket hat. Or, keep it more casual with a baseball cap, loved by celebs from Dua Lipa to Cara Delevingne. Glastonbury style is way more cool and casual than Coachella, meaning an assortment of shorts in your case is a non-negotiable. You don't just have to go for the classic frayed denim look if that's not your style. Scalloped white shorts also give off that classic Glasto boho vibe, and look both effortless and timeless. It's the last day, and while you still want to look good, it's more about achieving the perfect balance of casual and comfy. With that, it's all about baggy combats and oversized shirts and jackets. If you can bag an artist tee, even better. Sophie Williams is a Freelance Journalist and Copywriter, covering everything from Fashion to Entertainment to music, Lifestyle and Features.
