They say the flip-flop is the new little black dress. But does it go with a big white dress? Chances are, our mothers weren’t adding thong sandals to their wedding lists unless they were headed to Maui for an after-ceremony vacay. Our generation is thinking outside the box, the shoe box that is, when taking the plunge.
I remember girls in high school wearing flip-flops to prom and graduation. Their hatred with a stiletto, and even a flat, at least kept them comfortable while dancing the night away. They had something going for them while I was padding my blisters with Band-Aids. But then my friend Jamie’s obsession followed her down the isle with crystal incrusted thong sandals flopping behind her. But then I wondered…is it really okay to wear flip-flops with your wedding dress
