Flip flops always look grubby after a year or two and get that greasy imprint on the bottom. My friend has a pair of Birkenstock's she has had" for years" and it's truly horrible.
I like those though really nice colour.

You aren't too old for flip flops until you can't walk in them properly.

You can get Havianas (or however its spelled) from TK Mazz for less than that along with other makes. Or you could wait a while in the hope that some magazine will give away some as freebies

i has some of those haviannas last year - they were ok one has gone awol

these in my link have nice soft fabric straps - i am hoping they will be worth the extra cash

Get some uggs. This is no normal summer. It is blinking freezing.

I really like them. (They are a bit expensive for flip flops but im sure you know that!)

wishiwasonholiday · 09/06/2012 19:14

I like roxy flip flops they're so comfy and about £10 a pair from javari etc.

If pink flip flops work with your lifestyle get them -- they're cute.

If not, what are you looking for?

Pelicano · 09/06/2012 19:41

They are really nice, would be tempted myself but would have to rate the comfort factor by trying on.

maybenow · 09/06/2012 19:48

flip flops are all about the squishy-ness of the sole in terms of comfort. Havianas are really squishy and super comfy, cheap flip flops are more rigid and therefore flip and flop more and pull on the straps across the top of the foot.

i wouldn't buy from the web without feeling them in real life..

out2lunch · 09/06/2012 20:54

Smile i would say my lifestyle is totally pink flip flops puppet

i can get hold of some by monday from shop they can be returned if don't fit
