I like a clog but I feel those pink wood ones would be the worst possible comfort combo. Your feet would be in ribbons.

I have a dusky pink felted pair of sort of clogs. Well, they were dusky pink. For the reasons you state, they’re now a dingy grey colour. And the cat left a shrew in one.

I have ordered the jumpsuit, I dithered a bit but then one of the reviews says it has pockets so I caved. If anyone spots a nice cropped yellow cardigan let me know.
It’s cute, Bea! Let us know how it fits. I was wary at first of the straps as that type always seem to hang far too long on me, but then I see it looks like they tie together at the back? Which solves it and is far less hassle than altering them yourself.

:hbeat: that's so cute.

I don't get the clog love at all. I can't imagine how people can walk in them.

:love:

I love clogs. They were my footwear of choice as a 1970s child. Amazing for kicking shins.

I love the jumpsuit too, Bea.

Beena’s shin kicking made me lol. I hate wooden clogs with a passion but I love my ugly rubber crocs so much. They’re pretty much all I wear and I think my feet have spread into troll feet because of it.

I love clogs too, but having nearly died on a pair of Swedish Hasbeens I won't be partaking this time around.

Lovely jumpsuit!

That's exactly what I was thinking! I come from clog-land but I simply can't wear them, can't walk on them, can't keep my feet whole in them. They just aren't comfortable, even though I think they look great teamed with a nice summery dress.

Love that jumpsuit Bea! And love the idea of it worn with a yellow cropped cardigan and yellow slingbacks :hbeat:

Me too, I would be clomping around in them. I need a flexible sole :granny:

Clompy clogs. :love2:

I had a pink suede pair when I was about 19 and I loved them so much. I can’t remember any mishaps in them and I’ve always been super clumsy so I must have injured myself somehow and then blocked it out. There’s no way I didn’t.

I would wear clogs at home if I didn’t have really mimsy cats who object to everything.

She’s just reminded me that the cloggy way of strap over the foot is “garden mode”. :love:

Following in the theme of not so sexy shoes, these rubber slides are on my wish list. I think. I’m pre-menstrual so will wait to order.

My giant hot pregnant feet really want them too, Est. Which along the same lines, is probably not a helpful endorsement :lol:

Paul thinks I should get the pink clogs but I am going to wait a week.

Never buy the thing the man likes. It's always the wrong one :bitter:.
