Jelly

I haven't worn jellies since I was in the 6th grade. They were my favorite shoes, simply because they were bright colors and could be worn in the water or to school.
I have not thought much about jellies since then, until I saw this photo of Carrie Underwood wearing these perfectly sparkled clear plastic jellies by Melissa Shoes.
What I love most about the clear sparkle is that your foot and nail polish show through the open plastic weave.
They are impossible to find in clear, but believe me, I do not give up that easily.

    Those actually look great with her casual outfit! I used to wear Jellys too! I wonder how comfortable they would be on.

    Love these! And I love Melissa shoes! they are always super comfy and the smell like strawberries!
    or maybe that's just the Vivien Westwood line, not sure but they are great!

    I love these! I have a pair of sandal type jellies from Gap and wear them all the time. They totally remind me of wearing them as a kid.

    i was never into these shoes when i was younger, but i would probably give them a chance now in clear or black.

    I remember begging my mom to buy me jellies when I was little. She didn't like them because she thought they weren't supportive. But I got them and I would totally buy them again now...I just never see any!
