I’m not yet in my statement jewelry years.
But I’ve decided I’m at the Bright Sneakers and Big Glasses stage of my fashion life.

Right after knee surgery I switched to wearing Hokka running shoes. I’ve sold all of my heels, including beautiful Fluevogs with heels, on Poshmark.
Lately I’ve been back to wearing interesting shoes but now I’ve got a brand new good problem. I can walk big daily distances and now sometimes my feet hurt. it’s been years since I’ve been able to walk far enough to get sore feet.
See Sam and Cheddars Big Beach Day. See my Halifax walking day below.
So it looks like when I travel now I should pretty much only wear sneakers.
New fashion dilemma: Do I keep up the bright colours or do I get a plain black pair and try to blend in?
New seasonal dilemma: What about summer? Are there any sandals that you find comfortable enough for big days of walking?
Fashion and sandal advice welcome!

Do you want to blend in? Or do you want to have the option, sometimes? I used to love fit flops for walking long distances and now opt for birkenstocks, which I love, and which are available in many fashionable options (okay, yes, it is still a birk, and …)
Why choose between blending in and standing out? You have a job– feel free to try out multiple colors (I did this on poshmark) for the many moods of Sam. I’m also exploring putting espadrilles into the rotation this summer.
Oh sure. In Guelph, multi options are good. I was wondering about travel. For travel with carry on only, it’s one sneakers, one sandals. That’s it!
