Look for less: Boat shoes!
I'm kind of into boat shoes lately. I used to think they were only appropriate for serious seafarers or dads who do the crossword puzzle on the pool deck. But my friend Mary snagged a pair on a shopping trip recently, and I thought they were adorable. They're a great weekend alternative to the crappy old Reeboks or dirty flip flops or ballet flats that pinch your toes. Plus, it would be fun to feign knowledge of how to sail the high seas, even if in reality we'd fall off the boat screaming to our deaths. At least we'd look charmingly casual while doing it.
If you have money falling out of your pockets catching on fire, you could try these AMAZING Sperry Angelfish Top-Siders for $75. Want.

If you're broke like the rest of us, opt for the Payless version, on sale for $13.49. Boat shoes are the Payless "hot deal of the week," so get them now or pay more later.

Ships ahoy! Ooh, Chips Ahoy sound awesome. Where did I put those cookies?
