They are pricier than the Target ones I linked, but have numerical sizing, so I think the fit is more flattering, and I can often find an Athleta coupon. Look in the descriptions for their “featherweight” fabric-perfect for capris or pants when you don’t want to melt in the heat.
I LOVE Athleta, but I am in the process of getting rid of the excess junk in the preverbal trunk, so I am waiting until I hit my goal to purchase any more of their items.
I am Pooh-sized and wear denim capris or denim shorts no matter how hot it is. I find that they absorb sweat, I avoid the dreaded chafing, etc. As long as my shirt is lightweight, I’m fine. So I think you’re wise to take your favorite pair along; you might find they are the best choice for you.
I’d shop for some lighter weight capris if possible. Denim is heavy and also slow to dry if you happen to get caught by an afternoon shower. Linen, travel pants, athletic material - something like that - I always buy with pockets though! BUT - if they are a fave, I’d definitely pack them b/c you will likely be fine in something that is comfortable to you.
Update: I got my l.l.bean camp crop pants today and I am super happy with them! They are very light weight and will be easier to pack than several denim capris. I am just taking a carry on, so this will give me more space. Thank you for your input.
You’re so lucky. I have falling arches, so I have to wear orthotics every day. It makes finding cute shoes nigh impossible! Enjoy your flip flops. I’ll just sulk in the corner in a green jealous heap
Are we talkin’ just basic flip flops with flat thin soles? I could understand walking around WDW orthotic flip flops. Need that arch support and generous cushioned sole
Nothing wrong with Birkenstocks, but I wouldn’t call them cute. They certainly would look odd with the dress I recently bought to wear to the Cali Grill to celebrate with DH! (Anniversary.) Unlike @ryan1, I don’t go barefoot with my dresses.
Here are the shoes I’ve ordered most recently to see if I could get my orthotics to fit in them:
Clarks Gracelin Maze Flat (I’d have to rip the current insole out, but that looks doable)
I am a child of the 90’s and remember Birkies revival! Everyone at my high school had a pair. I always thought they were cute, but unfortunately they don’t work for me. I trip in them too much (natural born klutz). I think it awesome that you wear them with your vestments!
