How much water do athletes need?
By Richard Seven
Seattle Times
Drink water to slake thirst, prevent dehydration and fuel the body. Drink more as you perspire. Seems simple enough.

Cute Professional Pump by Fitzwell
With it’s business casual style and cute round toe design, Fitzwell has created another shoe perfect for work…and play! Surprisingly comfortable, as the sole is cushioned with a built in gel pad, and the stacked kitten heel is great for all day wear at 2 1/2″. Choose from 4 rich shades in soft lambskin or suede for a very worth-it price of $69.95US. Other than the ultra comfortable gel soles and super cute design, Fitzwell’s Valora pump also offers a chic square heel, bunched up vamp, and a large range of regular or wide sizes (sizes 5-11).

Disney Crocs!

I am beginning to think that Crocs are starting to grow on me… it’s kind of a scary thought since I didn’t think that *I* would be admitting it of all people. The newest thing to come upon in Crocsland, was Crocs Disney© Beach, and I liked it! Maybe it was the red/black color combination bringing back many fond childhood memories, or maybe it was that the annoyingly ugly holes on the classic Crocs sandal is replaced by the all familiar shape of Mickey Mouse himself.
I’ll most likely never ever wear these, but at least I wouldn’t be cringing and giving the mother dirty looks if I see some little boy wearing these Crocs! Comes in 4 different color combos for $37.95US.
Glittery T-Strap High Heel Sandal by Dyeables
Glitter bugs me. I don’t know why, but I always find glitter on shoes a bit excessive and usually avoid it, but I actually like the Flame sandal by Dyeables. The glitter makes the T-Strap look glamorous, and the strappy metallic ankle wrap makes this one sexy shoe. Perfect height with a 3″ high heel and smooth comfortable foot bed. Comes in bronze or silver for an affordable $54.95US.
