Of course when I am on the beach I will rather wear my flip flops. However when I will walk or go on shopping I will wear something comfortable since for sure I'll stand for much longer of time. Sometimes I wore a pair of shoes or even my flip flops. It depends on where will I go :)

I love wearing flip flops all the time. If I could wear them year around it would be great. However, if I'm shopping at a mall and will be there for a long time then I will wear sneakers. If I will be in and out of the mall then I will wear my flip flops. Flip flops or sandals are so much more comfortable to me then having your feet stuffed into a pair of shoes all day.

Preferably I would rather wear shoes when shopping or walking, and flip flops when I'm at the beach, river, or lake. I like to feel the sand between my toes. But if you get sand in your shoes, its almost impossible to get out a lot of the time. Besides, if you wear flip flops in public, your feet might stink that day... or your toenails might not be clipper or might look nasty. People might look at you in disgusting ways for that. But yes, shoes for walking and shopping, flip flops for the beach.

actually it's just the opposite. when you wear shoes for a long time your feet will stink if they sweat a lot. but wearing flip flops they stay dry so they don't stink. unless of course, you wear shoes all day then take them off and change to flip flops right away. then everyone close to you will be able to smell them. yikes! as for your toenails, yeah, you need to keep them trimmed and clean if you wanna wear flip flops.

On the beach, I prefer flip flops for sure, it is just annoying to wear other types of shoes, since sand will get into them and so on. And I guess flip flops are actually more comfortable otherwise too, now that you mention it. But I don't wear flip flops everywhere, because I think in some cases, they are just not that appropriate...

Hi junellen, it's not suitable to wear a pair of shoes when roaming along the beach. I prefer to wear flip flops as I don't have to worry my shoes may get wet. I had my two days holidays at the beach resort few weeks back. My roommate and I had a stroll along the beach in the early morning. We took photos standing in the water, sitting on the huge rocks, writing on the sand, etc.
My companion was not feeling free to do this as she didn't want her shoes to get wet. She even refused to take off her shoes for she worried that salty sand and water might spoiled her shoes when she put them on again later I enjoyed doing what I wish as mentioned above just dumping the flip flops aside
Have a nice day!
