The famous 'orange' flip flops

I am gonna share a secret with you... everyday I wear bright orange flip flops to work. Most people wear sneakers, but I wear fluro flip flops from CottonOn. They are my most favourite and comfortable shoes...and with them I feel as if I can do anything! Hehehe..almost anything.. I am free of the constriction of heels, that I promised myself I would wear at the very bare minimum. Heels just suck, I mean they are beautiful and they make your legs look damn HOT but they just give me blisters, sore calves and squashed little toes by the end of the day.

I had believed that flip flops were safe, safer than heels anyway. But they have caused me a lot of strife since wearing them. I walked all the way to Wellington Central Building, which is the new office location and I must have scraped my big toe twice! I had to check if there was any skin hanging off them cuz it hurt so much! And just today I had almost tripped walking up an escalator...becuz the blasted thing hooked onto the next step. I won't try running in these cuz I don't want to see what would happen!

Anyways...with my flip flops, I must agree I feel much more comfy and more inclined to walk a flight of stairs, it encourages me to be more active and walk distances. But maybe I should invest in a proper walking shoe and join the rest of the sneaker savvy office people that I see strolling down Murray St.

i just prefer the idea of wearing anything u want except for pyjamas and too revealing risque to work. the same goes for shoes...

As long as you're not going around in crocs because they're "comfy"...
Flip flops are pretty, dangerous though. I was walking my dog and one fell off, which resulted in a life-threatening scramble to stay up-right and not lose my shoe for good. Dangerous, I tell you.
