Speaking of preppy, I’m still enjoying my silver Sperry top siders. They are starting to show signs of being loved…so it may be time for my next pair. I have high arches and for some reason Sperry’s are the only “flat” shoes I can comfortably wear. Love that they go with practically EVERYthing. My go-to casual outfit is a fitted button down, white jeans, pony tail and my silver Sperry’s boating shoes.
This look is also fun.
I started zooming around the internet in search of my next pair of Sperry top siders and hit the jackpot with all kinds of colors and styles. One of my favorite pairs in that grouping were these beauties. These would be perfect with shorts for spring and summer.
Love the sportiness mixed with a little bit of sass.
We have a lot of dock days around here. Fishing, sun set viewing…and major paddle board time on the brackish lake in our neighborhood. I always wear my Sperry’s to the dock. Husband likes to take the boys for adventures on their paddle boards and kayaks.
Love seeing this.
Our little guy has his own kayak. For safety, Peter ties him to his paddle board so he doesn’t drift away. This way our kayaker stays protected yet still feels independent paddling all by himself.
Pippi is our official dock dog.
I think a pair of striped Sperry’s would be nifty to have too.
What kick around shoes are your faves?

I love my Sperrys too! So comfortable and stylish. I also love my Sanuk flip flops. I have been eyeing the metallic Sperrys too. Love the sassy stripes!
Boys doing something besides playing video games – I love it! It’s a constant battle at our house to get them outdoors – they’re always happy once they get there, but it takes some prodding.
I kick around in my Sanita clogs – good for my feet, but fun too (I have them in zebra and leopard).
So fun! Pippi looks like she wants to jump in! I love Sperry’s and pretty much anything preppy these days. My go to/wear all the time summer shoes are Yellow Box flip flops. They are so comfy and there are so many cute styles!
Love my Sperry’s! Those striped ones are too cute! Just got some Frye sandals and I LOVE them! So comfy and stylish!

Love my Sperry’s and I’d love a metallic pair!
I love flats, ballet flats, and also love espadrilles for summer!
Enjoy today and the weekend dear!

Too cute. My niece just received a cute pair of hot pink Sperrys for Easter…she’s only 2. So cute.
I love Bensimon slip-on sneakers but if I lived by the beach I would wear Sperry’s too. That striped pair looks like fun
Just bought my daughter the style you selected sans the sparkly for her 15th birthday friday. Practical gal opted for the oat/linen and hasn’t had them off her feet all week! The cut of the women’s Sperry’s is so much more flattering than it used to be and they have certainly stepped up their fashionable & fun game…hmmm, may have to buy a pair myself.
Love these shoes, Seleta! I recently bought a pair of natural linen ballet flats from Toms. Their original style wasn’t ‘me’ and I never bought a pair, but their new line of ballet flats are perfect and oh, so comfortable.
Oh how I love my Sperry’s too. I wear the traditional version with a tassel instead of the tie. Those and a pair of Jack Rogers are all I need in the summertime!
love the pictures of the children with dad on their boards and kayak! we’re in Maui right now on vacation, and my 10 year old daughter just tried paddle boarding yesterday for the first time! she did great.
sperry topsiders remind me of my high school days. i recently bought my daughter the gold with glitter sperrys and she loves them.
go for the striped. i would. LOVE them.
My daughter just went paddle boarding for the first time and
loved it. the sperrys are cute.
Just sourced an incredible pair of pink plaid Sperrys with light pink leather laces. Other than that it’s ballet flats all the way (have my sights on a pair of Blochs) or the old standby Jack Rogers.
Pippi is so cute!
I am in desperate need of new kicks – have been checking out Sperrys boat shoes and Toms wedges/ballet flats (I’ve never worn either brand, and think it’s about time!!). Seleta – which pair of Sperrys do you have at the moment? I’m trying to decide between the pewter montauk and the gold angelfish (that you posted above). Any words of wisdom?
Caitlyn,
Looks like they sold out of the ones I have. They are the platinum Sperry boating shoes.
Seleta
Thanks Seleta, I think the Angelfish ones are the winner! Ooh the Striped ones are so cute too – maybe i’ll get both! Enjoying your blog, have a good rest of your weekend!
Tom’s! I just got 3 new pair. I love the classics, just tried out the new ballet flats and wedges. They make me super happy AND you’re giving back at the same time.
I’m a little bit obsessed with the striped sperry’s. I can’t tell if they’re blue or dark gray. Do you know where you saw them online? I found a pair on zappos but can’t tell if it’s the same color or not quite.
Hi Lara,
Not sure if those stripes are grey or blue. I’d say order the ones you like and see if you they pass the test in person!
