We're going to Hawaii next month. I don't know exactly what all we're going to be doing but I'm guessing there's going to be a lot of walking involved and the Tory Burch Millers I've been wearing all summer aren't going to cut it. We're probably going to be doing Disney sometime next year too so I think it's time to invest in a decent walking sandal. I'm usually a fashion-over-function person so I'd love to find something relatively cute. Any suggestions?

My calf muscles attach super low and I have no ankles Edit, wtf I was trying to quote brux and quoted myself.

sanuk yoga slings are really comfy but don't have arch support and are slippy on wet surfaces. Reefs have been my long time go to for walking sandals (well technically flip flops). I've walked all over Disney, Rome, and many other places in them

Oofos. They are a flip flop so not that cute but they are comfortable.

Order some where you can get free returns. filingjointly showed me these shoes 2.5 years ago and I'm forever grateful.

I just got a pair of Born sandals this summer on sale at Dillard’s and have walked all over in them! I have terrible feet and they have been very comfortable. They look cuter on than in the pic. I got the tan color. www.dillards.com/p/born-zinnia-sandals/507646206

I have the metallic copper arizonas with a white sole and they are considered pretty trendy right now. I really like the mayari style too.

I have a pair of Skechers on-the-go flip flops, and I love them. I’m going to buy another pair for next summer.

They did make a dupe of them at Target this year if you wanted to go try those on to see how they look. The Eileen Fisher ones are the softest, most comfortable, best sandals ever though. Also I still feel really new here. How on earth has it been at least 2.5 years. My gosh.

I remember posting about my DS being born and he’s 3. Time flies I guess? Except when I’m home all day with three small kids. Then it doesn’t fly at all. Rude.

I also have these in the black nubuck and gold. I feel like I need another pair. They are so comfortable and get cuter each time I look at them!

I walked around Chicago for 4 days in these in July and one of the days had a long dress on. There are several picture of me with my legs crossed, leg out and proud and I felt like these flattered my legs so much.... so much that a pic or two made it to social media. That's saying a lot!

I feel like I need to preface this by saying I’m not a crocs person... but I was desperate when we were in Hawaii because my new birks were killing my feet (yeah you def need to wear those in) and I found these and they saved my trip. I wore them walking for hours and they were so comfy and not terrible to look at imo www.crocs.ca/womens-crocs-isabella-t-strap-sandal/202467,en_CA,pd.html?cgid=women-footwear-sandals&cid=854#start=6

They are cuter than most other Keens and extremely comfy. They are very sturdy and would be great for hiking on basalt. They are also water sandals, so good for exploring the ocean in Hawaii. I have terrible feet and can easily hike 4 miles in these shoes. KEEN Women's Rose Sandal, Magnet/Gargoyle, 10 M US www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZG2MCI0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_FZeKBbCGENMDA

I swear by Birks. They’re my favorite, but need a break in period before vacation.

I love these. I walked Disney and all over Australia in these. So comfy A tad slippery though when wet. But they are my favourite pair of sandals.
