a simple equation


maybe its just me, but i haaate it when girls wear flip flops with leggings or skinny jeans. both articles of clothing draw the eyes downward to the foot, making it imperative to wear cute, fashionable footwear. flip flops are not included in that category. just maaybe a girl could get away with wearing a sling-back style flip flop sandal...but otherwise...no, no, no. do yourself a favor and get some statement-making flats or even some simple slip-ons.

this picture just makes me cringe

It's not so much the flip flops + leggings as flip flops + leggings + denim miniskirt + mall top

UGH times a million. That outfit is the calling card of the fashion deprived, unorginal, mall trolling n00bs that populate my fasion nightmares. Plus, feet are ugly 90% of the time.

Oh my god, I know, it makes me want to kill myself. There was a girl in my French class last semester who had these brown leggings that she wore with matching flip flops. I avoided speaking with her at all cost.
