I'm not entirely sure when I first began to notice Birkenstock and slides making a come back, maybe May/June time? I was seeing Adidas and Birkenstock slides EVERYWHERE! Magazines, runways, blogs, instagram, you name it. Now I can appreciate fashion and trends no end, but obviously we each have our own personal style and know what we like and what suits that style, so as much as I appreciated this trend, I vowed never to wear them! There's just some things I look at and think..no, definitely not for me, so I was totally dead set against getting some of these! But after months of being exposed to these everywhere I looked and how awesome  bloggers have been styling them, I have eventually been won over, and though I may look back and think "my god, they looked hideous", in the present day I can't stop wearing them! Albeit I'm extremely late in buying them and they won't get much wear for the rest of the year, but damn they're comfortable! I managed to find them at a pretty reasonable price and after I tried them on I had to grab them! 

I don't own/wear any flipflops, so I guess this is the closest thing to them comfort wise. As I previously said as well, I'm totally in Autumn (boots!) mode, however I recently came back from our holiday home in Cornwall - hence the lack of posts! - and wore these no end as they were perfect to slip on and off when going surfing! So screw what you're gonna think when you look back, buy the damn shoes/shorts/coat that you weren't completely sure on, as fashion is fun!
