I didn't buy the sandles, but I did buy the top and capris. Well, I had to sew up the buttons on the top, because buttoned tops are a no no for a person with my build (grin). I looked utterly ridiculous.
Im sure you didn't!>I now only wear that outfit when I don't intend to see anyone, and I should just toss it. With my basic shape, and my huge calves, and my knock knees, I closely resembled a Christmas tree ornament in shape. One of those weird shaped Christmas ornaments?
I don't believe you!

> I'm glad I didn't try the sandals. I have abnormally high arches and tend to walk out of shoes with heels. I'd have killed myself in those sandals.Then they werent for you,
It sounds like you have your style and thats great! I didn't mean to sound like I thought you should change. We are our own worst enemies and it sounds like you are. No one judges us as harshly as we do ourselves. You are not ugly, and you do not look like a christmas tree ornament!
