As eager as I am to stop feeling lethargic round the clock, I'm also well aware that the season of summer comes with its own fair share of troubles. There's all the sweat that streams down your face the moment you step foot outside, along with the sporadic pangs of dehydration, heat rash, sunburn, allergies..and so on. Practically every aspect of our lives, right from our general day to day schedules to what we keep at the front of our closet, is modified in some way by the hot weather. And it goes without saying that these changes are important to keep your cool, both literally and figuratively, during these sweltering days of the year.
Well, we'd like to talk about one such summer-based amendment. Now that boot season is officially over and you no longer need to seal your feet and retain the heat, your shoe closet is in dire need of an update. You want to waltz through summer with happy feet instead of stumbling your way out. And we think these light and bright summer shoes will get the job done perfectly!
