The Look:Will they ever leave us? - Flip Flops

Will they ever leave us? - That's the question I ask myself about Flip Flops.I guess the answer is no.The thongs follow us from the Japan and the beautiful geishas to 2008.
Nearly every celebs has a pair and shows up with Flip Flops in their free time and a casual look.That's a bit embarrassing but honestly I took such a long time to learn how to walk with them and till this day there's only a simple black pair from H&M on which I can walk quite good.
How do you feel about them?Hate or love them?

Love&Cheers,
Mimi

Hate 'em. I only wear them to the showers. Sandals are just as comfortable and easy to slide on!

I don't really like them :[
I prefer sandals!

i dont really like them.
however there is nothing easier to put on a summer day at the beach than havaianas.
i do prefer sandels or some cool gladiator shoes though.

I don't really like to wear them. I just think there are much more excting shoes but I wear them when I'm being really lazy.

ich mag wirklich keine füße, was bei flipflops ziemlich schlecht ist, aber ich finde zu einem strandoutfit und zu richtig heißen tagen gehören sie einfach dazu ^^

I love wearing flip flops to the beach but otherwise there are a lot more choices of footwear.

i can't help but love them! my favorites, ironically enough, used to be for old navy, where they sold them for $4. they've changed their design however, so i've boycotted the store ever since.

I actually really hate flip flops! Like The Clothes Horse, I only wear them to the toilet! I Never understood why girls will buy flip flops instead of sandals! I DEF agree that sandals are Just as comfortable. & they look so much more better than flip flops!

But I do agree that some people can look stylish in flip flops! But I guess its not for me.

it always amuses me to hear people call them flip flops because in australia we call them thongs.
they are pretty much an aussie staple. if you dont have a pair, you are not australian. thats not to say they go with everything. but a pair is a must in all wardrobes. you cant head to the beach without them. having said that, i would only ever wear them to either the beach or perhaps a music festival where i didnt want good shoes to be ruined, otherwise its sandals all the way.

Unknown said...

I try not to wear them as much, but sometimes you can't help to just slip into them for just a casual day.

I'm trying to limit myself with them, but I'm from Florida so its basically flip flops year 'round here.

Now I usually only wear them to the beach, pools, etc. because my little jelly sandal things are a bit hard to slide on.

simimoon said...

i hate them. the only appropriate time to wear them is when washing your car or something.

i have FINALLY outgrown the boring flip flop phase which i went thru from well 14 to about 20 ish.. haha. i don't mind the ones which have gladiator inspirations, or CERTAIN pairs. but overall i hate the plastic/beach flip flops, and other flip flops which are boring looking. i prefer gladiator sandals.
