Summer is here and although it’s been quite hot in most of the U.S., it is officially here and time to think more about summer travel, summer fun and summer ‘must haves’ to keep your cool.  As a writer, I get a lot of information in my inbox for new products and services and there are some that I like that I thought I’d pass on, such as this one….good for your ’sole’ and useful all year, not just the summer.

FlexFlop…..if you haven’t heard of them yet, you will.   I’ve been going more frequently for pedicures and got in the habit of bringing my own flipflops, a little more sturdy than the paper type ones that you sometimes get when you leave (and good luck walking in them!).   Now we have FlexFlops……..they fold, they come in an array of cool colors and they come in a cute little bag so it’s like getting two items in one because you can also use the bag as a cosmetic bag or even as a purse for the spa….enough room for your phone (although it would be nice to leave that behind so you can relax) as well as a personal item or two. 

Another option is if you’re at an event in heels………ahh, what a relief to take them off and put these on.  So many uses and such a clever idea.  Stacy, the owner of FlexFlops, has also been on The Big Idea.   I recently spoke with her and congratulated her on her success.  Bottom line, if you have a dream, go for it.  It’s the chances we don’t take that we’ll regret later, mistakes just teach us a lesson….nothing ventured, nothing gained…..you get the idea!
