Well, ladies, summertime garb is upon us! I don’t know about you, but my 8-year old hiking boots and 5-year old leather sandals have seen a lot of action. Time to get a replacement. Believe it or not, my husband is always reminding me that I need to get new shoes! I have… three pairs of shoes. 
The boots, the sandals, and a pair of black pumps. Ugh. I guess I do need something nicer. I am fussy about my footwear. When it comes to shoes, I’m like Goldilocks; shoes need to fit *just right*. I prefer open toed shoes now, since I’m used to walking around the house barefoot all the time.
Here’s an adorable style of shoe– the Fit Flop! It’s offered by SweatyBetty (what a terrific name!!). These Fitflops are not your boring, run-of-the mill, flat-footed WalMart flip-flop. These babies are specially molded for comfort (imagine that in a flip-flop!) and for building the muscle tone in your legs and “bum.” They are beautiful styles. I love the navy. These shoes are relatively new on the market– introduced last summer– and are extremely popular in the UK. They are made of micro wobbleboard technology and give you a workout while you wear them. Amazing! The website is really cute. If you’re interested in getting fit while wearing shoes, the Fit Flops are the way to go!

Hey, have you seen (or tried) Vibram Fivefingers? They simulate being barefoot whilst giving you good protection.

You’re not the first person that I’ve seen talking about the Fit-Flops but I’m so stuck on my Yellowbox that I can’t imagine wearing anything else. lol

Thanks for your comments.
I never used to like flip-flops, but as I get older, I prefer the open-toes.
Chilly, you are so funny! I think they come in all sorts of sizes!
I’m a little under the weather today, so we’re staying home for Memorial Day. But the sun is shining in Upstate NY and it looks like it will be a gorgeous day.
Have a blessed day.

Hi Mrs.Mecomber!! I’m real sorry to hear your not feeling so good. Hope it’s nothing to very serious and you feel better real quick!
Oh my wife is always laughing @ me.
And I do wear flip flops most of the time. First thing I do when we get home from going out somewhere, is change shoes and put on my flip flops.
Feel better soon and have a great week!
