Shoe Tuesday- Summer slippers
So my girlfriend is pretty pleased with herself at the moment- she’s done what appears to be the female equivalent of riding a jetskiing over Niagra Falls whilst slam dunking a basketball.
She found summer slippers that match our winter slippers!
| Summer Slippers | Winter Slippers |
| Open toe for ventilation | Closed toes for warmth |
| Springy foam base | Thick felt sole |
| Rigid, don’t touch all parts of foot | Flexible to encase you in fabric |
Also shown: my first mosquito bite of the year. I’ve done well to get this far without one to be honest.
Hmm, not quite matching, the white flowers are randomly arranged in the summer one while they’re in nice regular arrays in the winter ones.
Does the whole world descend into chaos in the summer?
Not quite identical, but definitely matching.
But yes, as a scientist you should understand the relationship between heat and entropy.
I think the summer ones are fake.
YOUR TOES PEEK OVER THE EDGE MAN! Have you gone insane?
(I got attacked by 2 mosquitos in Big Bamboo Jing’An two weeks ago. I think I ended up with about 16 bites after breakfast/the basketball)
T – That’s why I never wear shorts or footwear that exposes my feet, even in summer.
They’re a loose fit, for added comfort- I just moved my toes up a bit to get them in line with the other slippers for the photo. It’s all fine, just relax.
Anyway WoAi
Yes James? I only put them on to take the photo. That’s my gym clothes. Have you ever seen me wear shorts outside in the 2 years you’ve known me?
Oh crap, there’s a bit of sensor dust right in the middle at the base of the sofa!
Special gym clothes, a selection of man bags, interchangable belt buckles- now you live downtown WoAi, it’s just a matter of time before they crown you Queen of the Metrosexuals.
Hahaha! C’est funny one, Swiss! (Is there some sort of coronation ceremony? I want to see pictures!) WoAi I’m going to see if you’ve mentioned how your move went – does Tommy like his new digs?
james, you need a pedicure at the barbie store :)
Forget the toenails – I suggest foot replacement therapy as the only sane course of action.
Shopgirl – What are you talking about? I just gave James a pedicure at the weekend!
Jenn – Ah yes, the moving blog. There’s just too much to write I don’t know where to start, but Tommy was NOT very happy for a few days and at one point I thought he’d left me but turns out he was just sulking under the bed in the guest room.
James – You might be right, but there are worse things than being labelled a Metrosexual. I’m just glad I don’t look like Boy George!
Hey if you’re going to be Metrosexual, you might as well be the best damn Metro you can be- although there could be some stiff competition from Silver-Shoed Will when he figures out the fabric market.
I admit that my feet look a terrible state in that photo. I’d just taken my socks off / been on my feet all day / have a medical condition / am half Goat.
I was going to say gout – how about a week of no-alcohol detox?
Nice winter slip on, looking a little *moist*
i have the same winter slippers in brown. do you think we should kiss?
Colin- they’ve seen a good season of action, starting to get past their best now
Balticninja- again?
