When I saw Barb Chansky on Shavous, at one point in our conversation the topic turned to her footwear. You see, on that occasion, she was sporting a fabulous pair of pink, bejeweled, Vera Wang "flip flops". Then, on a later occasion, I saw Barb in identical flip flops, but this time in brown/gold. Since earth-toned clothing/accessories are my current obsession, to say that I was dazzled by the latter pair would not be an exaggeration. (Barb, keep up the good shopping!)
Well, Hashem must have decided to throw me a bone. Last night, I was given a present, and it was none other than a pair of knock-offs, in bronze/gold no less, of those Vera Wang flippies. (I believe the party from whom I received the gift purchased them at ShopRite, if you're interested in procuring some yourself). The remarkable part of that story is that I never mentioned Barb's footwear to the person from whom I received the present. I guess the gift was truly bashert.
Alas, I now have a bit of a problem. Since I wear stockings outside the house, does anyone have tips of wearing knee-highs, etc. with flip-flops? I would looooovvve to wear these outside the house. After all, something so pretty should be shared with the outside world. :)
The ladies @ the nail salon seem to wear flip flops with tube socks with no apparent difficulty ( though it looks a bit strange).
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, There are knee highs and hose that don't have toes or have a special flip flop 'toe' arrangement. Amazing Savings may have it?
Thank you! I'll check put Amazing Savings.
ReplyDeleteWear them in good health! Thanks for the honourable mention and for a daily chuckle; plus I am wearing a third reincarnation of those shoes as we speak:)
ReplyDeleteYay! Details about pair #3, please!
ReplyDeleteTabi socks.
