Pretty

[Flyinggeese1]

OK so this is not about improper use etc. More that there seems to have been a recent explosion of the use of this adjective on Mumsnet.

I’ve just seen it used to describe Crocs on S & B so maybe this is about misuse after all!

Does anyone else notice words like this that seem to increase in use for no apparent reason?

I thought that everything was stunning or gorgeous these days.

Talking of footware, I came hear to bear my sole about the heals on sandles.

Ha! Yes footwear seems to be a particular hotbed.

I've been tempted to list things on ebay as just Stunning or Gorgeous or Stunning and Gorgeous without size info or anything.

I was looking for a pair of brogues and most of the items weren't brogues. They were flat lace-up shoes.

The crocs did look nice.
The trouble with pretty sandals is that most of us don't have pretty feet.

It’s everywhere! I don’t mind the word at all but it’s just… everywhere.

‘Pretty’ is the new ‘stunning’.

I've not noticed but I will now.
