For summer trips with lots of walking, ordinary sandals just won’t cut it anymore. These Vionic slingbacks might get me from amusement park opening to closing in one piece.
Featuring “VIO MOTION” technology to support arches, these sandals have adjustable straps for a perfect fit, polyurethane lining to keep your feet cool, and a cushioned yet flexible footbed for all-day comfort. They come in both medium and wide widths and sizes from 5–13.
Vionic’s Reese Slingbacks are $110 at Zappos and come in four colors. (My choice is the pictured “oatmeal beige,” which looks like linen.)

DS is almost 4 but we haven’t done swim classes since he was a baby. We tried a session at Goldfish Swim School but he would not go in the pool without me. Parents weren’t allowed in the pool so we stood poolside the entire class. He would probably do better in a beginner class where I was in the pool with him for a few weeks, but Goldfish doesn’t allow parents in the pool for his age group. YMCA has an adult-child swim class for 3 year olds, but it is on Saturdays in the summer which is tough for us – we’re out of town a lot on the weekends. So should I enroll him in the YMCA class even though we will miss a few sessions, or should I enroll him in Goldfish which is on weeknights and hope he gets in the pool eventually?
