Loriann Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 I read that flip flops are not allowed in the MDR (maybe specialty restaurants as well?), but I wondered if dressy flip flops were acceptable, ones that have a little "bling". Otherwise we will need to do some shopping soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constable145 Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 No problem with flip-flops in the MDR. The dress code is rarely (if ever) enforced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestingBird Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 On formal night I'd suggest more than flip flops. But, I know some heels, and the like, can be very fancy and formal looking, but at the same time be considered flip flops/sandals. Not sure that makes sense, but what I'm getting at is...blingy whatevers should be ok. They don't want "pool clothes", or the "I don't give a ****" look in the MDR, that's what the Windjammer is for. However, as @Matt has mentioned in many podcasts, and I've experienced in my own cruising, some shopping for new cruise-wear is a must before each cruise ?

monctonguy Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 For guys its not acceptable...closed toe shoes (and socks?).....doesn't matter how dressy it is is my understanding. Geema 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Babe Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 For those of us who can no longer wear heels, (sciatica), I plan on wearing Bling sandals or bling flip flops. Geema 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrixieBOI Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Thank you, Loriann. I had the same question! I have some very cute dressy flip flops with rhinestone straps. Perfect for some of the maxi-dresses I want to wear for dinner in the MDR save for the "no flip flops" rule! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loriann Posted February 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thanks for everyone's replies! I really wasn't looking forward to buying new sandals for me and each of my teenage daughters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig403 Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 My wife wears nice black flip flops. She can't wear heels because she has a surgical pin in her ankle. No one has ever said a thing. I wear bling flip-flops with a nice jacket and slacks. Naw,,,,JK. :-) But I wouldn't be surprised to see someone like that.
