To want to go home to change!

[mummabeargrr]

Got to work this morning and realised I have got dressed in black trousers, black top and cardigan, but due to the kerfuffle with getting children out the house have put tan shoes on, I have exactly the same pair in black.

I now keep seeing my feet and annoying myself.

What's wrong with tan and black? They go together fine IMO!

Act like it's intentional. I often wear mostly black apart from a pair of pink shoes.

Pink would be fine, or red or green. I just think they look so silly!

What shoes are everyone else wearing? Bet you haven't noticed.

That's nothing OP. I knew someone who had two pairs of shoes in the same style - she worked with children so needed to be comfortable.

Rushing out of the house one morning she hurriedly stuck her feet into what she thought was a pair of shoes; wasn't till she got to work she realized that one was black and one was brown. Had to spend the whole day in odd shoes.

Is anyone really going to pay much attention to your feet provided your shoes are clean and polished?

I doubt for one second anyone has noticed my feet what so ever!! Yes they're clean and tidy, they just keep irritating me! I suppose I could use it as an excuse to go and buy a new pair ....

I once turned up for work (meeting clients by appointment all day, 25 miles from home,) in smart top and dog-walking joggers!

Pigs I've done that. I had two pairs of boots in the same style - one dark brown, one black. Thought I'd put the black ones on, then got to work to discover I had one of each. I spent as much of the day as I could sitting at my desk.

My colleague spent the whole day on Monday (including 2 client meetings and an appearance in court) wearing mismatched shoes so I wouldn't worry about it!

I am really confused. Since when do black and tan not go together? Am I hideously out of touch?

@ThymeLord I am sure they do go together, I just fed really odd as I am all in black with very pale shoes - I feel top heavy almost. Just my own oddity!

Looks like an awful lot of people get dressed in a bit of hurry in the morning

mummabear that's OK then, as long as I am not committing a fashion faux-pas every time I leave the house

I wear black with tan shoes all the time. I think it looks good and breaks up all the monotonous black.

Last week, I was rushing out of the house and got in the car to drive to work,. Halfway there I noticed I had plastic crocs on (I was weering them to do a bit of early morning weeding in the garden).

I really could not go to work with plastic crocs on my feet so was about to turn back despite the fact I would have been late for work.

Luckily I remembered I had some other shoes in the boot. They were converse which were not really suitable either and bright red which did not go with my green/blue outfit but I decided I could live with them for the day if it meant I wouldn't be late.

Just foget about them op. It will be fine for a day :)

I once went to the toilet at work and struggled to get my leggings back up. When I looked down I realised I was wearing Hello Kitty pyjama shorts under them

My old boss once put two different shoes on after grabbing them in the dark. He rocked them for the rest of the day.

Own it.
