Reef Ginger - Flip for this Flop

Living in a beach town, I needed a sturdy pair of flops. Was a Havianas fan, but my local surf shop didn't have them. Decided to try Reefs. My friends always said good things. Wow, were they right! Reef Ginger cradles my feet like a tempurpedic mattress. If I had my way, they would never come off my feet!! Highly recommend! http://shop.reef.com/ginger/d/1098_c_200_cl_5694

Stripes are SO RIGHT

There is just something so good about horizontally striped pants/ leggings/ skinnies.  They somehow are sexy, fresh,  and they actually make women look taller. When Philip Lim showed horizontally striped jeans for men last year, I was skeptical, but these pants are done RIGHT on women. 

Banana Republic has a trouser version that I am coveting right now:

 

There's just something so sickly awesome about Sochi ski leggings with horizontal stripes that makes me swoon.
