Eleanor’s old converse were getting a bit small and super beat up, so last weekend we went and got her a brand new pair! She asked for pink shoes, so we found her the most awesome pair of hot pink chucks! I’m completely jealous and want a pair for myself!
Happy Friday friends!
I completely realize that what I’m about to say is going to be very unpopular, but it’s how I feel and so I’m just going to say it.
I hate flip flops.
I know, I know, I live in Southern California and here a statement like that is blasphemy! But people, I just hate them! I think they’re ugly and too casual for pretty much any occasion and I cannot stand that sound they make when they slap the wearer’s heel. If you want to wear them to the beach or to the pool that is just fine with me. Those are the places they are appropriate for, but I don’t want to see them at the mall, at the grocery store, at the coffee shop. Really, I don’t want to see them at all.
I mean, c’mon people, can’t we all just try a little harder and get a pretty sandal that slips on just as easily and is just as comfortable? Please?
For example, I recently picked up a pair of sandals from Payless that I just love. They are perfectly comfortable, slip on and off easily, and make it look like I put a little effort into my appearance.
Please folks, ditch the flip flops and try a cute pair of sandals. I’m begging you!
Once we’re not broke anymore I intend to have fresh flowers on the dining room table at all times.
For now they only appear when we’re having guests for dinner.
It’s kind of a sickness I have. I don’t actually know how to have a informal occasion at my home. I’m big into entertaining so when someone comes over I need to completely clean the house and, at the very least, have flowers usually accompanied by our nice plates, cloth napkins, appetizers, dessert, etc. I’m trying to be better about it, trying to be more relaxed and low-key. I’m going to try to restrain myself and leave it at just the flowers tonight!
Have a great weekend everyone!
