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.

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 😞)

I have truckloads of these tube shaped things you can either wear as a scarf, a cap or as some kind of headscarf.

I'm guilty of doing the same thing with what I call "luxury" or hard to replace items. 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 😉

Double edge sword ... I still miss a handmade silk scarf I bought in Turkey, left on a plane. I want to go back to Istanbul just to replace it

I have a lot of scarves, and wear them, but none are precious.

[Orchids&Dragons 9,047]

I buy scarves because I WANT to be a scarf person, but then never end up wearing them. 😧

Absolutely! SOMEONE clearly needs to make sure she doesn’t leave the new scarf on the plane. I’m willing to take one for the team.

I had no idea you were possessed of such a noble spirit, AngieB! 🤣
