I admit, I've had my eye on a pair of Croc clogs for a while now. But something has been preventing me from purchasing a pair. Sure, the soles look squishy and ergonomic and the colors are delightfully vivid -- yet their virtues don't seem to outweigh their vices.

Crocs, I suppose, are just a little too cloggy for me.

But Croc ballet slippers might just work. The so-called "Prima Crocs" are still foot-friendly and brightly colored (black, fuchsia, silver and gold), but unlike their older brother -- the beach -- these round-toed flats might actually flatter my legs.
