I spend my summers chasing four boys around. We’re at the park, at the pool, at the beach, at the library, in the backyard, at the ice cream shop, at the amusement park… we’re everywhere. Keeping up with these boys keeps me on my toes. There’s no such thing as putting my feet up to relax. I’m constantly dressed for on-the-go! And, putting it simply, wearing heels isn’t so easy.
In the summer, I’m a flats girl. All. The. Way.
I can thank William (age 7), Alexander (age 6), Benjamin (age 5) and Henry (age 4) for that one.
I know that flats aren’t the “sexiest” shoes to wear, but they can be chic and very trendy. I’ve become a “mom pro” at making sure I’m finding the most fabulous flats to wear in the spring/summer because as much as I want to wear gorgeous high espadrilles, they just don’t make sense in my daily mom-life. I need to be ready to make a mad dash after a child in seconds, and I can’t do that in 3-inch heels (I reserve my heels for date night with my husband!).
