Nice! I don't suppose they come in a women's size 13?

 

Hugs!


Sadly not!  I looked for it.  I found them, but 9 was the largest size I could find.  I wear size 8. 😢

Yeah…  This is the thing.

This is why I made that comment about being fortunately small enough that fitting into standard women’s clothing items has been at least one relatively easy issue in rebuilding my wardrobe.

My favorite is Boho, but I tend to go more classic/office/librarian with Thursday Wingtip fancy boots. Love my boots.

They're like the work boot version of Christian Louboutin's red sole shoes.

So, I wandered into this threat on page 2 thinking we were talking about dress styles, but all the comments I was reading were about boots.  Okay, don't get me wrong, I adore boots, they are my go to footwear, but where did the dress discussion go?  Because, I love dresses too.  Unfortunately, most styles don't love me back.  Sheath dresses, specifically sleeveless sheath dresses flatter me the best, I think.  They tend to pair well with jackets and cardigans and because they are sleeveless, they are much more forgiving in the shoulder area.

 

But I love boots too!

Sorry for the confusion.  A comment about boots by @Gabrielle Marine Alizee was relating to enjoying any styles with boots.  I replied with the post about the boots I have and use for the majority of my looks as I had mentioned in an earlier post about my style.  @Jandiliked the boots and @Jackie C. did too, going so far as to wonder if they were available in her size.  I looked it up and couldn’t find it.  @Jandiwas just expressing commiserate concern over the difficulties in finding types of clothing like that when creating a style because of size barriers.  @Mx.Drago was just trying to offer another option if anyone was still interested in boots for the style in question.  I think, personally, they are a defining factor in many instances.  It’s part of why I wear them.  I prefer styles with skirts and they tend to look good with skirts in my opinion.  I have seen some great legging styles with them too though.  @Elizabeth Star has had several over in the “What are you wearing today” discussion.  Several of the ladies have.  I am trying to get up the nerve to try something like that.

True, we did derail the dress topic. Most of mine are of the fit and flare style and above the knee.

I prefer, natural colored cargo pants and harem styled pants. My dark navy blue peacoat with toggles and my fur stole resting over the shoulders. Sweaters...lots of large sweaters and hoodies. Knitted beret and beanie hats, long thick shawl for winter and a black caplet. Have button downs and turtle necks. Then there's the t-shirts with random stuff on it. Have tons of jewelry I made, macrame stuff and sewn beaded jewelry with gemstones. I like my shades prefer round frames.

Jeans, T-shirts, Tunics and boots.

“Soccer mum” counts as a style! One I will likely fall into.  I’m still not sure what to call mine.

I love dresses.  I really enjoy the provocative pink Sunday frilly dress look.  I wasn't sure which style that would fit into.  But here's my next dress purchase.  I'm just waiting until I loose my last 15lbs or maybe 20lbs. before splurging for it.  But this dress attached to this post is me, Susan, all the way.  I absolutely love it. ❤️

I'm very cottagecore/thriftcore-ific... It's kinda fun researching about different styles. The powers that lay beyond the digital veil.

At least soccer mum gear can run and is sensible for most activities. That's my cover for most events.😶

I dress like my dad or a soccer mom. I even have a specific pair of jeans I call my "mom jeans." It's a lot of graphic tees, button downs, and jeans or jorts. 

And athletic stuff, but those are my jammies.

      Good morning everyone,   @KymmieLI hope you're misreading your bosses communications. As you say keep plugging a long. Don't give them signs that you're slow quitting, just to collect unemployment.   I have a few things to do business wise, and will be driving to the St. Louis, MO area for two family gatherings.   Have a great day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning everyone, TGIFF   It seems like I am the one keeping or shop from being the best. According to the boss. I don't know if my days are numbered or not. But anymore I am waiting for the axe to fall. Time will tell.   I keep plugging a long.   Kymmie

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷
