Just a quick PSA: I noticed last night that my new favorite shoes (see post from last month), Clarks “Hotel Image” in Cotton, are on sale right now for a pretty sizable discount—$80, down from $130. Light Tan and Honey are also on sale through the Clarks website, and Navy and Mushroom (both discontinued) are still on super-duper sale ($66!) over at 6pm.com.
I’m presently trying to talk myself out of buying a pair in Light Tan, but geez…it’s hard to resist! These shoes are sooooo comfy and perfect for walking in the summer. I’ve been wearing them pretty much every day. When shoes go on sale I worry that they’re about to be discontinued, so I’m afraid to wait too long…
Plus, they look good in all of my vintage floor tile photos on Instagram, which is as good a reason to buy a pair of shoes as any other. Right?

I totally bought these shoes in tan after reading your original post and have no regrets. They are so great! The only thing is they are already scuffed and I don’t know what to do to get the scuff out! How do you keep your white shoes so pristine??? I also live in NYC so you know what kind of a beating these shoes are going through on the daily.
Sharon, I think the scuffs just don’t really show in photos. Believe me, they’re not pristine anymore, especially after wearing them in the pit at a Morrissey concert! That said, a Magic Eraser works to clean up major scuffs on white leather. (Definitely do a tiny test to make sure it’s OK on the tan—I don’t want you to ruin your shoes!)
I have these in white and yellow, I absolutely love them!
I’m so tempted by the yellow, Katherine!!
Anna, brilliant suggestion! I’m going to try this out tonight. Thanks!
Sold out of my size (8). Darnit! I’ve been thinking of them ever since you posted. I have a similar shoe in tan that I wear *all* the time.
These aren’t my usual style, but have been intrigued since your original post. As a new shopper to Clarks, they gave me a coupon code for an additional $10 off……add to that a free return policy and I am doing a little dance today.
