Black dress overkill

I am SO tired of wearing back dresses (full story a few days ago), and after 5 days, the only people that did notice, were the people who I know read my blogs.  Shows you how invisible you are when you’re part of a large organisation.

Anyhoodle, here are the last 2 dresses in my LBD challenge to myself, and I must say that I’m so very tired of black dresses now… so much so, that bought a brown and red dress on the way home this evening:)

End of LDB week
Day 4: Sleeveless wraparound dress with full skirt and high heeled strappy sandals

Day 5: Puff sleeved wraparound dress with flat pumps (I always wear flat shoes on a Friday)

And the 6th black dress is going to be retired… I’ve decided that I’m probably never going to wear it again.

As for the comments on my last post about all the shoes… I wear a different pair of shoes every day of the week, because my feet get so tired.  I put that down to the few years that I worked at Woolies and wore high heels every day… my feet really suffered then, and I find my feet don’t get as tired if I wear different shoes.

Now Sam at work thinks that’s a load of hooey and that it’s all in my head… but here you go Sam, I’ve found an article that backs up what I said earlier today… the same pair of style of shoes should not be worn 2 or more days in a row as it puts repeated pressure on the same areas of the foot causing irritation and misalignment problems;)

You look stunning in number 4!! I love the LBD’s hehe

LOL LOL LOL… So according to the article flat shoes are not good, heels are not good.. wearing the same shoes or style of shoes for more than a day is not good… It would appear our only option is to partition to wear NO SHOES at all… I vote we ban shoes all together??? :)

LOL I love the last photo Jeanette….it describes how most of us feel on a Friday :)
Thanks for sharing that piece of info about wearing different shoes ~ it actually makes so much sense and I’m going to go shoe shopping this weekend. I need at least two new pairs of shoes!

I really love day 4 you look fab is a LBD well done

Michelle - October 24, 2009 - 9:12 pm

Number 3 & 4 are my choices. Number 4 stands out more as it is a lovely happy looking photo of you. You are correct in that no-one really notices what you wear, good excuse if I buy something new, argue that I have worn it before!

LOVE these photos!

Like them both! If I had to pick a winner for today it would be #4 tho’ !! .. and shoes .. high heeled shoes, I’m sure, differ from pair to pair so wearing different ones is a good idea

I like the wrap-around one!

You sound like me. I have a million dresses in my wardrobe (90%black) and yet yesterday i was shopping for another to wear to a function.

Do you think we buy black becoz it’s functional and slimming perhaps?

Wish I can believe the theory of the different shoes to alleviate tired feet. ’s OK when you young!! But just wait……

you look awesome in both these…love your attitude in the last one but you look so beautiful in No. 4

Jane (26 comments.) - October 24, 2009 - 7:08 am

4 is da bomb. You are looking STUNNING!

I like the shoe comment. I read an article about that too. You should always vary your shoes. ;) Can’t blame you for getting tired of black dresses though.

you almost make me want to wear dresses again….almost.

I don’t mind dresses so much. Just can’t stand the shaving of legs, and pantyhose. ugh…
