My weekday uniform

I used to swap between trainers and a heavier shoe depending on the outfit. These have been on my feet for three months now. I put them on with straight jeans and a knit before school drop-off. The buckle took a day to get right, then they just disappeared on my feet. I used to swap between trainers and a heavier shoe depending on the outfit. These have been on my feet for three months now.

Quiet with denim

I wanted one clog that did not shout. I had a louder pair before and barely wore them. These sit next to my blue jeans without looking costume-y. I wear them to the studio and for coffee. Suede-look needs a bit of care in rain, which is fair. I wanted one clog that did not shout. I had a louder pair before and barely wore them.

Knits and errands

I work from home and still go out twice a day. Old slides felt sloppy with trousers. I have had these since late summer and they are the ones by the door. Soft enough for the kitchen, neat enough for the grocer. Colour is calmer in person than I expected. I work from home and still go out twice a day. Old slides felt sloppy with trousers.

Strap actually helps

Open-back shoes usually slip when I walk the dog. I tightened the buckle on day one and they stay put on cobbles. I have worn them most weekends for two months with jeans. Footbed feels even after a long loop around the park. Open-back shoes usually slip when I walk the dog. I tightened the buckle on day one and they stay put on cobbles.

One pair, many outfits

I was tired of matching shoes to every jumper. These go with the grey knit I live in and with a dress on slower Sundays. Had them six weeks. They look simple, which is the point. I still own boots for wet days, but these win indoors and dry afternoons. I was tired of matching shoes to every jumper. These go with the grey knit I live in and with a dress on slower Sundays.
