Thought we should have a CROCS style 'style shop' thread that can run and run

I'm having a dilemma of my own, can I justify another £26 on my mastercard for another pair of CROCS?

And where do you get that butter from?

did you order from Fitfeet misdee? They are showing available how annoying. I decided to spend the extra 2.79 and buy from fatshoes again as their service was sooo good last time.

I saw a woman with the baby blue on yesterday though and they looked bloody awful, hope it was just her and what she was wearing, and that mine look ok.

My CM has just bought a pearl pair and they are lovely, really neutral like a stone colour

Can i ask a quick sizing question?

I ordered some for my dd this morning she's a size 5(toddler size) and i'm worried they are going to be much to big as someone said they have quite a big fit, has anyone else found this?

PeachyChocolateEClair · 20/05/2007 16:43

Still annyed that mine haven't come and no refund weither so am croccing angry

BUT love the ones I did manage to get from elsewhere (DS2's missing, other 2 boys arrived from malaysia / china).

They are quite loose but the right size seems OK for them

Now, how do I convince a HFA boy that YOU CANNOT WEAR SOCKS WITH CROCS?

ellasmum1 · 21/05/2007 00:41

Yeah I ordered from jellyegg 29th of MARCH and still waiting!! Have now cancelled and have received some from taylorshoes website in USA- with postage was same price as UK. Came within ten days.

jabberwocky · 21/05/2007 00:53

Has anyone gotten the Mary Janes? I got a black pair and luuuuurve them

ellasmum1 · 21/05/2007 01:02

no, but would love to see them on thought my dd would look cute in them.

mosschops30 · 21/05/2007 11:25

twobabies, they are not supposed to touch the front or back of foot, you should have a gap. As long as the foot sits on the raised area inside then they fit.

I am hoping mine have been delivered this morning cant wait

mosschops30 · 24/05/2007 19:18

Scootergrrrl · 24/05/2007 19:34

My favourite is this one Am on the waiting list for the lovely Cleo ones in chocolate and pink

misdee · 24/05/2007 19:48

i am very in love with the pink ones. the red ones are very worn out now as have had them about a year and have lived in them lol. they were also the beack ones which are wider, the fuschia ones are caymans and thinner.

misdee · 24/05/2007 19:50

buy 4 pairs, get 5th pair free!!! ooooooooo

isaidno · 24/05/2007 19:58

icingonthecake - I think they look like hideous beach shoes with no style whatsoever too!

haven't tried any on, so maybe I am missing out....

DeviousDaffodil · 24/05/2007 20:04

Ordered mine from Talyors, Caymans in Sage. They are enormous!
I keep trying them on but every time i look down I look like I have massive feet.
I am a uk 5 an doredered a US 8

Grrrr · 24/05/2007 20:06

What exactly are they made of ?

It looks like rubber, but surely it can't be ?

I saw my first pair close up on a nicely spoken mummy at pre-school pick-up this afternoon. They looked a sort of manure brown colour

peachygirl · 24/05/2007 22:23

Hi I'm so glad you are all still here!!
The house move was pretty bad.
We didn't complete until tuesday as our buyer didn't get his money together. We finally got into the house with our furniture today (thurs)
and I've ordered my crocs too... and some butter and two sunflower jibbetz!

peachygirl · 24/05/2007 22:23

All for £26!!

QueenofBleach · 24/05/2007 22:42

Just bought DD aged 16 months some prple ones, ahe laughs when I put them on, takes them off but insists in carrying them with her wherever she goes.

Beauregard · 24/05/2007 22:46

My prima crocs bloody rub.

CantSleepWontSleep · 24/05/2007 22:57

I bought the pale blue ones from fitfeet (same size as misdee wanted, and ordered pretty much the same time!) and they came in just a few days. Ordered 2 other pairs at same time (one for dh) but they cancelled the order for 1 of them and refunded, as it was out of stock.
Very happy with their service.

I have a pair of Mary Janes too, but they aren't as wide in the toes as the others, so aren't nearly as comfy for my wide feet.

SoMuchToBits · 24/05/2007 23:00

Pelvic floor - get yourself some Compeed blister plasters. They are great, and you can buy them in Boots.

Beauregard · 24/05/2007 23:03

Thanks Somuchtobits
I was suprised that they rubbed as everyone on here always says "ooh they are sooooo comfy"

Grrrr · 25/05/2007 07:06

C'mon, are they made of rubber, is that why they have loads of vebtilation holes ?

mosschops30 · 25/05/2007 11:33
