I usually wear little paper-thin ballet flats all summer (think&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Lucky-Women-s-Emmie2-Ballet-Flat/dp/B004ABSKS4/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Lucky Women's Emmie2 Ballet Flat</a>), but earlier this year had a leg injury and thus was rethinking my shoe choices (it's not exactly good for your feet to walk around all day without any support!).  I also was getting really sick of buying cute shoes only to have them look worn out and smell funky after a few months of rotating them into my wardrobe in the summer.  Enter the crocs flats.

Love these shoes.  They are super cute, fun, and comfy to walk on.  I noticed a difference right away in my leg pain after wearing these for a day.  I got them in the bright pink and they are such a great color for right now.  I also like the cut-outs on the sides, as my foot seems to sweat a lot less than in the&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/crocs-Women-s-Kadee-Ballet-Flat/dp/B005D6E0MK/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">crocs Women's Kadee Ballet Flat</a>&nbsp;that I also got.  They're both great shoes, but this pair is much better on the truly hot days in the sun.  Both hose off perfectly if you're in the garden, and look nice that evening for a night out at the bar.  Admittedly, I have a more casual style and you'll rarely find me in high heels, but I still like to look hot, and these fit the bill while keeping my feet comfy.

A note on size: crocs don't come in half sizes, and they tend to stretch on your foot to provide a more "custom" fit.  I strongly recommend that you size down and allow the shoe to stretch a bit when you first get it.  If you find they are a little tight, you can always stretch it with your hands (it's really durable, and the plastic won't break unless you're a pro wrestler or something).  For reference, I wear a 6.5 in flats, and a 7 in athletic shoes - ordered a 6 in both these and the Kadees, and they fit perfectly.

In all, I was definitely someone who thought Crocs were the worst thing to ever happen to fashion, but this new line of ballet flats for the summer has turned me around.
