"Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world."
-Marilyn Monroe
I love shoes.
And yet, as a busy mom of three petite ones who seem to be growing out of their own shoes every three months, I rarely buy myself a new pair.
Except for flip flops.
I adore flip flops. (I buy several new pair each Spring.)
My podiatrist...and physical therapist...not so much.
I am supposed to be wearing sensible shoes on a daily basis...and I did really good this past Winter and Spring. But since summer arrived, I'm not sticking to the "rules" so well.
What's a girl to do?
Invest in a "sensible" pair of flip flops!
I discovered these beauties at a local day spa this afternoon...

They are manufactured by OKA b (Shoes That Love You) and feel wonderful! You can learn more about their shoes and OKA b here. I love that they are made from recyclable materials and are made in the USA! Their website even has a ribbon tying tutorial! I can't wait to hit the ribbon aisle at Michaels!
Doctor endorsed...I think they are the perfect compromise between "sensible" shoes and bare feet!
And as a small side note...while doing my research on these shoes, I discovered that they are made in the South...(Buford, GA).
Flip flops and the South...what a perfect combination!

What type of shoes do you love?
SO cute! I think I will follow your link to learn more about these shoes :)
ReplyDeleteI love these! I too must wear "sensible" shoes and it's not really fun is it? I'm like you in that I find better choices for fall/winter. I have a couple pair of sandals that are very comfortable this year but I like the bow on these. I'm going to look at the site.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I've discovered is that I cannot wear the flat sandals or flip flops...have to have a little bit of a heel or it kills my back & knees.
Thanks for sharing!
