However, you also get the trends that explosively - and sometime inexplicably - take off, and before you realise it, your life has also been infused with scrunchies, chain necklaces and bucket hats.

Over the years there have been some trends that we look back on and the only question that comes to mind is, "Why?!"

Balenciaga debuted their new collab during their Spring 22 runway show and the only thing that really caught everyone's attention was the Crocs stiletto.

Are we just incredibly fashionable? Yes. But maybe there is something about this shoe we are just not getting and that's okay.
