My New Flip Flops


Last spring at Jamie Girl's wedding, I wore her mom's J.Crew flip flops outside for a minute...and fell in love!
They were the most comfortable flip flops I've ever worn and I wanted to steal them. But considering all the generous and lovely things her mother and father had done for me, I decided against it.
Then, I forgot about the shoes and went on in my average Target flip flops. Well, since I discovered there was a J.Crew store in Omaha, I decided I must have my own this summer, esp. since my feet are going to be so uncomfortable.
Last week, a group of us mom's went on a mini-shopping spree and here is one of my rewards...brand new flip flops! Now, Elaine had already broken hers in, so they were comfortable from the first second I slipped them on my size ten feet...These will take a few weeks of wear and tear, but I can tell...they will be divine. They are super cute, too, way better than the plain black ones I currently have. I am on the lookout for the shade of pink at the toe, so my toe nails will coordinate with the shoes.
Yep, I'm weird like that.

7 Words to brighten my day:

Yeah, I have the Target brand black rubber flip flops, and they hurt after a while! I hate shoe shopping so I might have to go check out these J. Crew flippers since you highly recommend them. That will save me hours of trting on a million billion shoes just to leave without a single pair, or to settle on the least comfortable after you walk in them for more than 20 minutes! They ARE super cute! You always find the cutest things. You should take ME shopping when you come down here. LOL! :-0

I swear by mine. I didn't get the cute grosgrain ribbon ones, but let me just warn you now, if it rains in Nebraska they are slick as HECK! So do not run in them. Be very careful. I have busted my butt in them, but they are like by favorite pair of skinny jeans. :)

I bought a pair of black J.Crew flip flops about 8 years ago and it still wear them--they last forever! Not only that but they are the most comfortable pair of flip flops I have over worn.
