As a fashion editor I will give most trends a go – whether it’s learning how to style butter yellow - this summer's hottest hue or bold colour drenching, I love keeping up with the latest looks and hero buys, but there is one shoe trend that I have struggled to get my head around and that’s the Crocs clog.

Launched in the US back in 2002, the oversized, spongy shoe has gone from being a practical piece saved for the beach or the garden to becoming a fashion statement-making piece of footwear. Over the last couple of years, Crocs have made the move from kitsch to cool, and lots of celebs (including Kate Middleton) have been spotted wearing them both as a daytime shoe and even on the red carpet.
