In celebration of the First Day of Summer - I present some of my favorite flip flops for the summer season. Flip flops, not to be mistaken for “Thongs” or “Thong Sandals” (that’s tomorrow’s post!), are low priced, very very casual, bold & fun, have no heel, and are generally made of rubber or another synthetic substances. They are not meant to be ultra chic or cost a fortune - luckily for me many designers offer their own unique & stylish flip flop creations - which means I can get several pairs! Many of these are currently on sale, so if you like them, grab ‘em while you can.

The temperature is finally climbing, and I am ecstatic! The sun is shining in and around the Chicago area & we are actually going to see temperatures above 50 degrees today! In celebration, I’ve just ordered a pair of these cute “Rant” flats from Bobbi Blu.
Sure, they aren’t high fashion. No four inch heel or decorated wedge. I won’t be wearing them to the office, out on Friday night, or to church on Sundays, but I will definitely wear the heck out of them. I think they are adorable and so easy-breezy, just exactly what I was looking for to wear over Spring Break while hanging out with my kids, spending some time in my yard (if nature keeps supplying the warmth that is), and just enjoying some needed “Down” time.
The price is right and the look is so playful & fun, with very feminine elements like the bow, lace and print fabric uppers. Also available in Mustard & Taupe. $63 @ zappos.

If you are looking for a perfectly stylish & charming office shoe for Spring, this is it. The “Beverly” from Delman is an elegant understated shoe that will work well with everything from a sleek sheath dress, to slacks, or even a dress suit. The color “Thyme” appears a type of beige to me, I think it will really click with just about any color combination.
I like the use of a Mary Jane strap with the d’orsay pump - they combine flawlessly to create a timeless look. Available in “Thyme Patent” as pictured above or “Black Patent”.
You can grab a pair for $298.95 @ zappos.
