It is ever relaxing and ever rewarding after a long winter of rain, hail and snow to dip toes into warm and heated sand only to be cooled off in the warm waters of the Pacific Ocean.  The sun tantalizes the skin, waves playfully surround the body and a glistening pool beckonsw the overheated while kids build sandcastles, parents read, walk or run all with festive smile.   Getting to the the islands of paradise or a yellow orb infused location takes a wee bit of  apparel planning.  And, perhaps one of the most important packing essentials is the perfect pair of sandals.   The sandals must be comfortable, must be elegant and must last over time.   After a fun filled break, here are a few Forever Chic Style brands that tops the charts for sunny holidays or just for sunburst days.







'One shoe can change your life.'  - Cinderella


Casual Gorgeous Comfort


I.  Paul Green - Why Of Course:  Paul Green shoes are known for incredible comfort and beautiful designs.  Founded in Munich and cobbled in Austria with superior craftsmanship and attention to the finest embellishments.   The outcome is a brand that is desired by many for ultimate comfort and beauty all in one. After all, why sport sandals or shoes that bind the feet or are sky high demanding discomfort on a holiday?







A fashionista friend of mine stated, "Can you run in the sandals?"  If you can't run in the sandals then forget it.  It is Spring and Summer for goodness sake not the dead of winter when toes are covered and boots are royalty.  Seek out sandal comfort for vacations or just everyday sunny weather living.


What to Wear With - White Jeans

Just say NO - frayed hems, low rise, rips, destroyed or holes! Leave this look for the youth.  Grasp the Audrey white jean and be elegant and memorable while dancing in the sun.








With Best Favorite Jean

Rag & Bone


Choose a skinny or straight white jean for Spring and Summer.  Frayed and flared hems maybe "in" but the look does not stand the test of time.

II.  The Fantasy and Fantastic Flip Flop:  The ultimate flip-flop is imperative for fun on a blue sky and sun vacation.  About five years or so ago, this fashionista invested in a designer pair of brand name flip flops for holidays in the sand and sun and they still reign number one.  This number is in  fabulous condition and remains Forever Chic Style comfortable.  Of course, others in the closet are in the race for a fluffy feet embrace between wears.   Oh and flip flops are meant for vacation only!  Repeat - vacation only! Really - so many sandals choices during daily routine - why flip flops?  So close to the ground and no sand.  It seems rather strange to walk around in flip flops at home unless washing the car.   Here are two favorites.

The Gladiator - Classic


Cleopatra

“...Her passions are made of nothing but the finest part of pure love; we cannot call her winds and waters, sighs and tears; they are greater storms and tempests than almanacs can report...”  - William Shakespeare


III. The Gladiator Heel:  Cleopatra remains front and center Spring and Summer 2016.  Snap up a pair of royal gladiators and evoke the wisdom, power and beauty of this famous muse.

Magical Paradise


After a day of sunshine, ultimate fun and ocean breezes, relax and partake in a glorious sunset.   Slip on a sassy pair of sandals, add a sun dress and swipe of lipstick for a magical evening.  The islands or sunny places across the globe hold a spell over many and continue to beckon year after year.  And, comfortable, pretty sandals that stand the test of time will be chosen over and over again for a festive vacation.
