A not so pretty trend

Pool sliders are the kind of shoes I would never be caught dead in but fashion houses all over seem to have taken a liking to the ugly, open-toed thick strapped slippers that one would usually associate only with boys who don’t have a bath before they come to college or neighbourhood uncles out for an errand.
