Hellcat Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 ...with my purple crocs. Have now done the school run in them a couple of times and been to Tesco, work etc in them. Funny that, when I was first wearing them all the yummy mummies were sniggering (they tend to do that when not so yummy mummies go by!!) but I have since seen one of them wearing them... Go figure. I am now cutting-edge fashionista and they are all asking me where they can get them. Now all they need is a chubby waist, greying hair and a buggy and they're there!

The Dogmother Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 You fashionista goddess you! Sounds just like me - wear what you like/feel comfy in and stuff them if they don't like it Rosie has pointed out on more than one occasion though, that wearing a coat with chicken poo on the shoulders to tesco probably isn't a good thing. Are those Yummy Mummies all starved and miserable looking Helen? They need chickens and food in their lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellcat Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Most of them are striving for the 00 american model size. Me, I strive to stay in the size 14's at the moment (and even then, I don't strive that hard... ) Life is for living. I'll diet once I'm dead.....

The Dogmother Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 There's one like that who I spot at the sports centre - she puts her makeup on and does her hair before she does a workout I have to be smart for work, but it all comes off as soon as I get home.

Cinnamon Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I saw a fab T Shirt in town today,which I so nearly bought. It said "LOVE ME,LOVE MY SHOES" Perfect for Crocs wearers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcat Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Hmm, I may have to source one of those... Funny how people follow a crowd though, innit? I mean, one day they're laughing at my 'clown shoes' and the next, they are all buying them. Its a funny old world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Baaa - I am so not going to buy crocodiles Or maybe I shall - I will be a trailblazer for sure in my sleepy village. I already get funny comments about the flash wellies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I don't think they're you Dear. But you're welcome to try mine when we next see you.That's if you can fit in a size 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 There's one like that who I spot at the sports centre - she puts her makeup on and does her hair before she does a workout We have one of those at our gym Clare. You really wouldn't believe it. I turn up on a saturday morning looking like worzel gummage in the worst clothes imaginable, and there's a lady (who always insists on standing next to me - I wonder why) who looks more dolled up than I do if I make an effort on a saturday night, with co-ordinatiing clothes and trainers. I honestly can't believe the woman. Not a hair out of place. I make sure I give my sweaty hair a flick in her direction.... Good for you Helen. Being comfortable in your own skin is brilliant.

Lesley Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Same here Pam! I only wear Crocs now - and wear my purple ones to work on Wednesdays - with a long, smartish, skirt. I really don't care if people snigger - at least if they're looking at my feet, they aren't looking at the rest of me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 People are always sniggering at my attire but i couldn't care less I'm happy so that's what matters Thankfully my daughter is also keen to develop her own style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 In the summer I slip into a lovely cool batik shift that I got in Malaysia. Nothing else - it's so comfy I wouldn't worry Chelsea - there have been plenty of conversations on here about lack of underwear and going commando.

phenna_family Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Will you ladies calm it down a bit with the stripping off! There are men on this thread who blush at the slightest mention of such things. Reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Sorry Reg! - but it has to be done!! I think we should have a day where all men have to wear a bra - then they'd know how uncomfortable the ***** things are - .......... on second thoughts, perhaps not, they'd probably enjoy themselves far too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
