I think it would look nice to just carry the second colour to the end.

If it was for me :beg: I would have the oatmeal color for the top third and the blue-grey color for the bottom 2/3.

I like it. I do love that kind of blouse.

I think I'd do the bottom stripe in the same colour as the top.
If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

Time for honesty, Turtles: is 48 too old to be breaking in a new pair of DMs?? I've been coveting these particular ones for years now and finally ordered a pair, which just arrived. I love them but don't want to end up looking like I'm trying to be 20 again...

No, it is not. DMs transcend age. Those are awesome!

This is from a 43 year old who owns (and wears) a ridiculous pair of New Rocks gothic space-marine-esque combat boots, however.

I'm so pleased you all said I should keep them!! And yes PG, it will be painful but worth it! Having flashbacks to being 17 and breaking in my first pair...

Ah I read something about how to break in DMs on Wearsmymoney's blog. Possibly worth a read?

Yes, sorry. They sell socks called doc socks, which are padded in all the areas where new DMs rub. I found them amazing last time I had a new pair to break in.
