Arabesque 7,442 Posted January 19, 2020 Tell your houndstooth flats (which are very cute) not to be scared there are flats & low heels in my collection @Sophie7713. When I put on my weight, my feet ached so much I couldn’t even look at my heels. Also I started a new job where I had to go to the post office in the shopping centre next door every day. The travelators and slippery stone floor were death to heels - terrible, terrible slip hazards. So goodbye to the 4+ inch heels I always used to wear to work. So lovely to be able to wear them again. Just stride on out. I went from 38-38.5 to being 38.5-39 with the weight gain. I’m back to being 38-38.5. 🎉 As to what I’ll wear the new shoes with ... I don’t know. I bought them because I loved them but they’ll work well with all the black in my wardrobe. 😜 Those toe shoes are fabulous @summerset but I don’t think I could do the individual toes. Can’t do toe socks or thongs (not distressed about the thongs) - irritates between my toes. 3 Sophie7713, GreenTealael and rs reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTealael 25,439 Posted January 19, 2020 Anyone wearing anytype of scarfs, wraps, pashminas, hijabs, geles, etc? (I bought a bucket load of silk scarfs in Barcelona, Rome & Paris a while back and I love them so much they barely see the light of day because I'm afraid to ruin them 😞) 1 sillykitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
summerset 5,265 Posted January 19, 2020 I have truckloads of these tube shaped things you can either wear as a scarf, a cap or as some kind of headscarf. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always have to remind myself that it's better to have love and lost than to never have loved at all. They're not giving you joy if they're stuffed in your drawer. So enjoy them now or somebody else will when your gone. Then hand wash with Woolite 😉 3 1 sillykitty, Orchids&Dragons, GreenTealael and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
