Dayam those look heavy!

Sweetpeastu, I actually like an empire waist but this dress is just Blah. Maybe it will be more appealing after it fits and I've got nice jewelry and stuff. And Merrells rock, but no gore tex for me thank you very much. Gore tex = blisters on my tootsies.

Amazingly enough.... not heavy at all  (unless you're one of those 'Running Shoe People'  < G >).  

Great ankle support!




Remember these?   LOL

I've got 'em.

They're great when one wants to stay stylish while milking the cows.

I'll post it after the wedding BPBryan. One month from yesterday...

Tilt, I am one of those running shoe people. =) I wear boots only in winter. I didn't even have a pair until I busted my foot. After the cast my ankle was all skinny and weak so I figured I better.

I know whatcha mean. Being stuck in plaster is No Fun (and once you get out, it's no picnic either).

I had Ankles of Steel a few decades ago, but I played soccer all through high school and developed a bad habit of missing the ball and kicking the hell out of the Ground,   LOL    It's just not beneficial to the old ankle bones!  I gots ta have that ankle support.

Those are surprisingly light, though.  The tread (outsole?) is really lightweight.

Embear, Have you heard about that organization that gives donated prom and bridesmaid dresses to girls who can't afford a dress for High School Dances? The name is escaping me at the moment, but it's a pretty sweet thing. I'll see if I can find some info.

Here's a list of organizations that accept formals for high school girls in financial need:

Way, WAY back when, I donated the bridesmaid dresses I got saddled with the the Salvation army. My mom wasn't happy about that, but wtf am I going to do with them, and what business is it of hers?

What do you wanna bet those boots glow in the dark, LOL

I can see where they saved a bunch of weight ---- that tread looks mighty thin.

Couldn't think of where else to post this but Michael Kors (cool designer) is opening a store in Charlotte. How awesome is that?

I suppose your answer would depend on if you know who Michael Kors even is.
