I love wearing wedge flip flops to make my legs look leaner. These wedges look great and go with many looks. The height is perfect for casual to dressy casual wear. The sparkle on the strap is not too obnoxious, but I found that I couldn't wear the shoes for long walks, as the rubber straps cut into my foot. I'm hoping with time that my feet get used to them and I can wear them out for extended periods of time.
