Fashion Over 40~ Dressed for Comfort

In today’s Fashion Over 40 conversation, I wanted to talk about dressing for comfort.  Although I’d like my outfits to look good, it’s also imperative that they feel good, too!

As I’ve gotten older ~ and especially since I’ve started working long days on my feet ~ footwear has become the topic of many conversations.

I’ve tried all kinds and brands, but the flip flops I’m wearing with today’s outfit are hands down my most comfortable pair of all.

They are Clark’s Brinkley Athol Flip Flops and I’m on my second pair already.

Unfortunately, I can’t wear them in the camp kitchen where I work (close toed, work safe shoes are required), but I have hiked all over Maui (and even Las Vegas!) in them.  They have a nice soft footbed and good arch support ~ 2 things I look for in the perfect pair of shoes. And (bonus!) they come in a whole variety of different colors.

Perhaps you’re not at the flip flop stage with the weather you live in.  Don’t worry, neither are we…but it’s getting closer every day, isn’t it?

How about you? Do you have picky feet like I do?  If so, what shoes give you the greatest comfort?  Interestingly enough, the comfortable shoes I finally settled on for standing 13 hours in a kitchen is also Clark’s brand.

And, no…I’m not getting paid a cent for saying how awesome they are!;)

I started this once a week Fashion Over 40 schedule with great fear and trepidation.  I’m not used to taking pictures of my outfits and I was scared to “put myself out there” that much!  However, you all have been so kind to me and encouraging with your comments.  Through the amazing technology of Google Analytics, I’ve discovered it is one of the most viewed posts of the week.

So, thank you for your kind  words.

You’re all so pretty ~ from the inside out!
