Supermarket proof

The other day I was talking to a colleague about supermarket fashion. I've lived in Amsterdam for six years and I used to wear my heels to the supermarket and no one would look at me in a strange way. I have tried this here in Australia and I don't think I would ever do this again. People looked at me and I could see them think 'why is she wearing heels to a supermarket'?
Now, you don't need to do your groceries in heels like me (well, used to, it is all about adjusting), but girls, stay away from wearing pyjamas to the shops, it is not necessary and you never know who you might run into!
Below are some suggestions what I think are supermarket proof outfits. Enjoy!

Try a pair of coloured jean/pants! They come in all different colours from yellow to purple to red. You can always roll up the pants a little bit, this straight away gives a different effect.
Combine them with a nice white button up shirt or a checked shirt, but make sure the colour of the checked shirt goes well with the colour pants.
If you are not really digging the coloured jean/pants go for a nice pair of jeans.

So instead of wearing heels, sandals or ballerina's are a good alternative. They also come in different colour and sizes, check out a few below. If you are not really a sandal person and rather go for thongs I'd suggest Gisele Bundchen's Ipanema collection. I absolutely love her thongs (collection), they are comfortable and are just a little bit more than the normal, plain thong --> http://www.ipanemaflipflops.co.uk/gisele.html

To finish of your supermarket proof outfit try a nice little shoulder bag. I don't like doing groceries with a big bag on my arm/shoulder. Collette has a nice range of bags which are worth checking out --> http://www.colette.com.au/
And last of all, don't forget your own shopping bag, a cleaner environment starts with you!
