shoes
Yesterday I wore my favorite store-bought sweater. It’s my favorite because, first of all, it’s a henley-style pullover and I find those very comfortable. And it’s a silk / mohair / wool blend, so it’s very warm but light-weight. And it’s bright rainbow stripes separated by black stripes. So, while colorful it’s not obnoxious. And when I bought it, it was on close-out, and marked down, and then put in the final sale rack, and I had a coupon. So a $120 sweater cost me $15. I should have bought two of them. But I digress.
Yesterday I wore my favorite store-bought sweater. As I waited for the elevator, one of my colleagues said to me, That’s a very bright sweater! It’s nice on a gray day like today.
I thanked him, and he continued, With all those colors, you could wear those with any socks and shoes you wanted! Then he looked at my feet.
Oh, he said, you did! 
We both chuckled all the way down in the elevator.
Did I tell you I also love my Danskos?

Love those Danskos. They don’t make the cute ones in my size — I have really big feet!

I’ve never tried Danskos because of my narrow feet. I do where Birkenstocks. There again, only certain styles will work for me.

Love those Danskos, I’ve been wearing D’s for almost 10 years now, rarely wear anything else (and I do have narrow feet!) I’ve never seen that model, where did you find them? I haunt Footprints.com for deals on D’s.

I love *my* Danskos. Yours look great on YOU
So glad that I can wear them again, now that the snow has melted.

I recognize that carpet!!
Glad I don’t have to look at it for a few days. 
Happy New Year!

I love your Danskos too. When I first saw them, I thought, Judy must have been bored one day and decided to needle felt the bejeezus out of her shoes. They’re so you.

I have very narrow feet. My Danskos – I have two pairs – fit great as long as I wear them with hand-knit socks. They take some getting used to as they don’t fit like other shoes, especially in the heel. But once I got used to them I love them.
I think they make narrow sizes now in the Dansko Professional. That’s the style both my pairs are. But I’m afraid if I bought narrow my hand knot socks wouldn’t fit. Priorities, you know.
Mine came from The Walking Company. The felted ones were a special design, or somesuch. I had seen them a couple of years ago and didn’t buy them and then kicked myself when they were sold out. When I saw them back in stock I snapped them up. Because, as Duffy says, they are sooooo me!
@LeAnne — get back to work!
