15 Fancy Flip Flops That You Can Actually Wear Off The Beach

Ahh, flip flops. Summer's favorite shoe and one of the most polarizing types of footwear in existence. Despite their comfort and easy wear, flip flops are generally frowned upon if you're not within half a mile of the ocean — and they're definitely not office appropriate. These 15 flip flops, however, are certainly perfect for the beach with their comfort and sand and water friendly material, and if an impromptu post-sunning drink date comes to fruition, they'll pass at a beachside bar too. Click through for definitively beachy flip flops that work on the boardwalk, too.
