Literal Iced Coffee Meeting, but SUMMER STEALS IN SIGHT!

Written By Anne Wlaysewski

SHOP THIS BATHING SUIT COVER & SANDALS NOW FROM AMAZON FOR INSTANT SUNSHINE!

Recognize these sandals from my last blog (link below) on what to pack for a warm weather vacation?

They are VEGAN and fabulous with a comfy cushioned footbed. The flatform is just right for added height without the foot ache of a too high heel.

I also LOVE the fun crochet granny squares in this cover up. They are very on trend but also add just the right amount of artistic whimsy.

Men’s Black Dress Casual Shoes (& Sneakers)
Men’s Black Dress Casual Shoes (& Sneakers)

What is a “dress casual” shoes? It’s a shoe that you would wear when you want to convey a relaxed upscale look for the office - khakis, anyone? - or date night at a nice restaurant where there are linen napkins and valet parking. You may wear them without socks, or as I recommend, hidden socks - get the look without the discomfort! They are not usually tie shoes but more of a loafer aesthetic. An unfussy style, they ooze OOO (checking a message occasionally). Conversely, you can achieve a dress casual look with a sneaker if the sneaker is less athletic and more shoe-like which usually means a more streamlined sleek look. Both of these are staples that will serve any wardrobe well.
