I Never Thought I'd Wear These Ugly Shoes, But I Was Wrong—8 Ways to Style Them

@monikhWhen my friends saw me wearing Birkenstocks, they did a double take. I'm quite the fashion person who lives for a pair of heeled booties, so this was a bit out of character. I honestly think just a year or two ago I would have also done a double take upon seeing myself, but things have changed. Birkenstock's Boston Clogs are cool again. Scrolling through Pinterest lately, I've seen them time and again, and after trying them out for myself, I've decided that I'm here for it.
What's the honest secret behind why I love these shoes so much? It's all about comfort, versatility, and a dash of nostalgia. These clogs have long been known for their unmatched comfort thanks to their contoured cork footbeds that mold to the shape of your feet. But now, they're making waves beyond the comfort factor. Fashion-forward individuals are discovering that these clogs are surprisingly versatile, pairing seamlessly with everything from casual jeans to European summer dresses. Allow me to prove it to you. Below, find eight outfits that fashion people styled this pair of shoes with.

@_lou.lou.louBirkenstock's Boston shoes are naturally on the casual side, so fashion people have been dressing their pairs up with blazers. This is a no-fail way to show people that you're not just wearing them—you're styling them.
I saw this blazer in person and can attest to the fact that it's perfect for fall.
I did some digging, and Famous Footwear had the most sizes in stock.

@anoukyveI have seen this photo on my Pinterest board every time that I've looked up Birkenstocks. Denim on denim has never failed me and looks so good with the shoes.
When in doubt, denim on denim it is.
I'm starting to think about taking a break from wide-leg jeans for this straight pair that I saw on Kendall Jenner last week.

@_sierramayhewMy favorite thing about Pilates is that you can wear whatever shoes you'd like since you'll be barefoot during class. Wearing Birkenstocks on my walk to class makes everything easier.

@smythsistersDo you work from home too? My go-to work-from-home outfit has always consisted of wide-leg jeans, a very comfortable sweater, and a pair of shoes I can slide into if I need to run a quick errand. Birkenstocks have always paired well with this ensemble for me.
