Never used to like Crocs, and had no desire to wear them. Saw no appeal.

That was until I got Plantar fascilitis.
They are the only shoe I find comfortable, so now wear them and are thankful they exist.😀

@PassingStranger Xmas present from the kids. I use them for driving, the garden, and the shops when I’m feeling slobby.

Barrel leg trousers. Surprisingly flattering on me.

Vodkamartini3olives · 06/10/2025 19:43

Sweatpants, Got myself some 'nice' ones with matching tops and that's pretty much my daily outfit now. Even better my teen daughter is impressed. Nailed it.

Elasticated waistband and wider leg trousers , so much more comfortable, can't seem to wear jeggings or anything skinny legged anymore.
