Does anyone wear Birkenstock Boston clogs?
I bought some, couldn’t work out how to keep them on then returned them. But I love them so have bought them again.

Can they be mastered? Is it me? 😄

I do. They take practice! I find them super comfy but only for walking - had to run for a train in them the other day which didn't work too well.

I'm looking at the Tokios currently cos they've got a back strap but I'm worried they'll look too medical.

Yeah I know what you mean. Easier to wear though.

I’ve got them on but brought trainers with me in case. They’re comfy so far but haven’t attempted to drive in them yet. 😄
 
I used to wear a pair about 15 years ago. The trick is to size down.
They need to fit tightish.
My toes also worked hard to keep them on.
 
After dithering for ages, i found some new Clarks Wallabees on ebay for around half price, and they're still in their box because I can't be arsed wearing anything but crocs atm :facepalm:

Crocs and socks, so comfy.
 
Today I got a surprise pair of Bluetooth headphone and glasses. Single piece. Actually quite nice for the price and harder to lose than ear buds.
 
Got some new trousers which I wore today but they’re too big on the waist. I knew they were but ignore it until they nearly fell down when I put my phone in my pocket.

Annoying as they were expensive. I’ll need to try and tighten the elastic.
 
I've bought a couple of linen tops from M&S to go with some linen shorts I got off Vinted. Shorts only cost £2.50 each, so I don't feel so bad for spending more on the M&S tops.
Plus I've bought their summer beauty bag for £30 which contains £170 worth of stuff. I needed another moisturiser anyway, so I reckon that's a good deal.

Got a job on a Victorian set film tomorrow and they asked the blokes to bring 'brogue' type shoes and they'll supply the rest of the costume. Now all I've worn over the past three years are trainers and Timberlands in the Winter.

So not wanting to spend much on something I won't wear, went to Shoezone in Stratford and got these for £18. They're some sort of plastic, but as a prop, they look the part. :D
 
Bought a dress and cotton jacket for upcoming weekend away/Girls Aloud gig. I’m keeping both and love them but can’t wear them together as the dress sleeves are too puffy.

Both from Joanie that I’ve never used before as v expensive for me.

I love Joanie clothes. If you keep an eye on their sale, it tends to be pretty good.
I've been eyeing up that jacket too.

Thanks! 👍

It’s really nice and I especially like that the lining is also cotton and not a synthetic and sweaty lining.
 
Alas my beloved pink Boden t shirt with little pompoms around the edge has definitely got a few little holes in the front, but I did get a lot of wear out of it. They have some other colours with the pompom detail but decided I just like having a pink t so have got this one on sale that should be a good cut on me.
