Flipping Over FlipOut Sandals

OK ladies, I am seriously flipping out over FlipOut Sandals!

I am a flip flop Junkie.  Trust.  When Old Navy runs their spring and summer sales and all those different color flip flops come out, I am there.  I like them in all different colors to match any outfit I put on to hang out, go to the beach, shop… I wear them in warmer spring weather, all summer long and into the early fall.  (And sometimes in the house in the middle of winter just because I miss them.  Don’t judge.)  So comfortable.  In fact, I was just admiring my flip flop collection the other day – looking forward to wearing them soon and thinking I wish I had picked up a pair I saw somewhere last year that had cute butterflies on it.

Then, I went to Getting Gorgeous and spoke with the girls from FlipOut Sandals.  Even scored a free pair in metallic copper with 2 sets of rose jewelry.  I can not wait to wear these out!  In fact, I liked them so much I wore them around the house today (too cold and rainy in RI right now).  My boys could not stop telling me how much they loved my new flip flops.

FlipOut Sandals can be purchased on their website in your choice of Flip Flops (in black, metallic copper, metallic silver or white) for $19.99 OR Jellies (in pink, clear or smoke) at $59.99.  Each comes with 2 sets of casual shoe jewelry to start you off.  While I am quite partial to the flip flops myself, the jellies are definitely a dressier option.  The coolest part about either sandal you choose to buy?  You can also purchase additional shoe jewelry to snap into place for a change, any time you want.  The larger ones retail for $24.99 while the smaller ones retail for $9.99 – you can purchase butterflies (my personal favorite), different flowers, hearts and more.  I love the thought about making so many changes to your one pair of flip flops.  So versatile.

If you love sandals as much as I do, these are a must-have.  Even better?  If you order a pair of your own (between now and December 31st) you will get 20% off your entire purchase of shoes and shoe jewelry by using the promo code: GORG

***In the interest of full disclosure here, in addition to my free pair of flip flops I was offered a 15% commission on purchases my readers make but I am not taking that offer – doesn’t feel right, did not apply.  I’ll keep my free flip flops and pass on the info to save you some money because I truly like them.  I hope you do too.

I finally found the perfect workout pants!

For the last four years, my favorite workout pants have been a pair of maternity yoga capris.

Yes, maternity.

No, I’m not – nor have been in the last four years – pregnant.

But these were the only pants I’d found that were comfortable and flattering, probably in part because of the extra support in the belly.  Unfortunately, while I have no shame in wearing maternity clothes for years after I’ve given birth, I’m not willing to walk into a store and buy maternity clothes when I am obviously not pregnant.

But I’ve been tempted.

I’ve started taking a weekly cycling class and they demand you wear pants to class.  I’ve also taken a pilates class and showed up to the gym to use the elliptical routine – and all of those activities require pants as well.  For months I’ve struggled to find workout pants that I loved as much as my solitary pair of maternity capris.

I’m happy to report, my quest for the perfect workout pants is finally over.
