				<description>&#060;p&#062;The only issue I have had with plastic shoes in the past (80s jelly shoes in particular) was that they tend to get sweaty and I am a bit blister-prone.  But I have been considering getting some this year for the beach.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Love them!  Perfect for a summer holiday.  I may be a little biased as I own these plastic babies:)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Wow, I was not expecting such a positive response.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I am buoyed by the knowledge these may be comfortable, they are due to arrive next week so I will keep you posted on this one.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Angie, I think I do remember the Valentino version.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Anne, these may also fit your ethical criteria too!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have Vivienne Westwood &#038;amp; Melissa shoes and they are the most comfortable shoes EVER. Yes, they are plastic through and through, but they are cushy and comfy and durable. I think the shoes you posted are adorable and perfect for vacation.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Jules these are absolutely lovely. You have just given me a brain wave. I have one pair of good summer flat sandals and it has been hurting me that they are getting damaged by the water when I go to the pool or the beach. And I dont' wear thongs (ie flip flogs?)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I am going to look out for something like this next summer!!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;So adorable. I've had to restrain myself from buying the camellia flip flops for several years. They continue to beckon me, but then I remember that spending that kind of money on flip flops is insane.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;So Valentino :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I think his exact versions were plastic a few years ago, Jules. Do you remember them? So much prettier than flip flops for a beach holiday. My thumbs are up!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think these are fine for a beach holiday. Pretty cute, actually. And beach holidays are the perfect time to choose fun over sophisticated, anyway. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I find that I feel better wearing a cutesy item if the rest of my outfit is not so cutesy. Or, if the situation is right, I go all out cutesy. I think I'm comfortable with those extremes because it's obvious that I'm aware that I'm wearing something cutesy, and that it is a deliberate choice. I don't know if this confession will help you or not, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to put it out there.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;BTW, 35 is still young in my book. :-)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Have fun on your vacation!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;These look great for your planned holiday.  Perhaps they'll get more wear than you imagine if you go lounge around the pool this summer at home...

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sure, why not?  They're cute, and they are for a beach holiday.  You can't wear your nice leather flats to the beach.   <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;These are adorable and perfect for the beach - you can just rinse the sand off of them! Though, I'm totally biased - I have a pair of lavender Melissa pumps (complete with bow!) and think they're awesome! I was shocked at how comfy they were for me (though my feet are non-fussy).

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Well, if they were pink with little pink flowers, I might tell you to resist! The black and white keeps these sleek, and they're perfect for a holiday.  35 is too young to forget to have fun with fashion!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I've seen these before, they are so adorbs, I could just pinch their cute little tiny cheeks :)&#060;br /&#062;
I think they are perfect for a beachy holiday!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;On the forum a few years ago a member named Steph introduced the brand Melissa and my overwhelming response was 'hell will freeze over before I put plastic shoes on my feet',however, here I am in arctic temperatures having pulled the trigger on these &#060;a href=&#034;http://www.melshoes.com/shop/mel-shoes-by-melissa-fresh-flower-iii-black-sandals.html&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://www.melshoes.com/shop/m.....ndals.html&#060;/a&#062; &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Full disclosure, they are for a beach holiday later in the year and I have always had an affinity with the Chanel white camellia but I still cannot shake the feeling these are cheap, juvenile and totally NOT what a 35 year old mum of two should be wearing.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Total honesty requested, have I lost my marbles?
&#060;/p&#062;
