Fashions you love/hate

I wouldn't sport those penny loafer things; they're not my style. I'd never be caught dead in the crocs. I thought they were just chick shoes.

A lot of nurses I work with wear them. Well, not in L&D, too messy. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I have heard they are comfortable and yes, the anti-microbial and odor resistant properties are good for nursing among other things.

Not really for me though. I think they look like good shoes to putz around in the garden in. Definitely more girlie, imo. I see a lot of little kids wearing them too.

Come to CO...EVERYONE wears them EVERYWHERE. And flip-flops...I saw some mention (and general negative view towards) them earlier in the thread. You should probably stay away from CO...same deal- everyone wears them everywhere!

I'm seeing them in a lot of the sports stores and cycling stores in the Cincinnati area. Men wear them too. I have a feeling if I got a pair of these I would wear them everywhere. I love the feel of comfortable shoes. I wonder if they're decent for hiking.

A friend of mine who went to Guatemala for a month said a lot of people down there wear them. She said she'd definitely buy a pair if she went back because they're perfect for the rainy climate.

I would not recommend them for hiking...not nearly enough protection for your feet or support for your feet and ankles.

Mrs. Utah, I was surprised to hear you say that people wear Crocs in your hospital.

There's been a lot of press lately about how dangerous they can be.

Don't mean to hijack the thread at all, but hey, it's about fashion and I'm pretty fashion-hopeless. Does anyone know the rules about what someone should wear to a Catholic summer wedding? All my dresses are black or show cleavage, and I have very little time to find something appropriate, especially considering I don't know what's appropriate.

I always thought cleavage was acceptable at Catholic weddings.

What about something like this, for just the ceremony?


Then take it off for the reception.

Interesting, I have not heard anything about them here. A lot of people wear not only the Crocs but other plastic-y type clogs.
Many are specifically designed for hospital use.

As for me, I like my old Adidas and surgical shoe covers
