[Gucci's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-slipon-sneaker) easy-to-wear Princetown sneaker quickly became last season's must-have footwear and more recently, has served as the inspiration behind the brand's new [clog-inspired shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-x-jean-paul-gaultier), which arrives in multiple colorways.

The gorgeous and versatile [slip-on shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bae-clog) is ideal for dressing up or down any outfit as the sleek materials combined with the unconventional silhouette, make for a unique mash-up. The shoe's upper ranges from an aqua velvet to a sleek black leather and even features a delicately embroidered iteration. Perfect for day-to-day wear, these shoes offer an individual both comfort and effortless elegance. To top things off, each shoe is complete with a small gold chain, which adorns the front of the piece.

The gorgeous shoes would appeal to lovers of luxury, as they come with a more expensive price tag.
