Get with it HinH. 😁 I wear my knee highs over my pants all the time too. Today it was my black faux suede Jessica Simpson knee highs over my size 8 jeans. The JS knee highs are black faux suede with 4 inch TH heels. @mlroseplant My new unit of measure, using measuring instruments is TH which is heel height minus platform.

My next house will have radian heat system and be solar powered. I'll keep the house around 72 then. But my current heater is a old wall heater in the back of the house; extremely inefficient.

I keep my heater on 60 F, off at night (old heater very old uninsulated house) and I will wear my sweater dress to keep warm.

I finally got a pair of booties that fit. Nothing special, but they fit. Women’s Fran Bootie by New York and Company Upper: 100% Faux Suede, Outsole: 70% Rubber, 30% Textile, Lining: 100% Faux Suede Shaft height: 5", Shaft circumference: 10" Heel height: 4" Inexpensive, but they fit. Wore them all day at work.

I just saw this. I have seen similar boots lately, but don't remember where. Google either "pee toe thigh high boots" or "open toe knee high boots". Good luck.

I see people using GPS to drive to the store they have been driving to for years. But there is a use when you get info on traffic jams. I only use my car's mapping when I take a route I have never taken to avoid a large traffic jam. And I have a flip phone.

I have a sweater dress that I use as a long sweater with side pockets. it has it uses on very windy cold days. BTW this month's manicure is a brown bases with magnetic red glitter. The glitter forms waves by the magnets design. Love material science.

I was a size 10 but lately moving down to size 8 and some size 6 fit.

There is a shape difference in shoes. Men's shoes are like boxes, very little difference in width between the toes and heels. Women's show have more of a pear shape, wider at the front and narrower at the heel. For me it means in men's I am a 9-9.5 EEE just to get my toes in, but then I have 1/2 inch on both sides of my heel and at the toes, 'clown shoes'. Lead to numerous ankle and knee issues (operations ad sprains). In women's I'm a regular size 10 and size 11 in some narrower heels. I can't get my feet into pumps, but that's alright, there is plenty of others I can.

I was look at a shoe company's website, can't remember which one, but they advertised an ankle boot as unisex. First time I've seen that.

But that would put additional stress on it and it would be more prone to fail (at the most inopportunity time).

The hand warmers were for @pebblesf standing outside at an outboard engines swap. I could see them also useful when ice fishing. Or skiing when it's -10 F, or after surfing in 50 F ocean water.

They have, its called a mylar blanket.

I split my baby toe while at university in the early 70's and it snowed. Snow was rare there, but I couldn't put my foot into a shoe, so had to go barefoot for about two weeks. At least the cold kept the swelling down. Moral of the story, stiletto spikes can split bones. Also, never tickle anyone when they have stilettos and you are barefooted.

Who says you can't wear you stilettos with your pajamas? Have you heard of battery (USB port) warmers? They are all the rage.

@mlroseplant I'm in my 70's and still can rock the short shorts. I think I'll stop at 111 years old.

No problem...I think we would be interested if she liked them. I for one need boots with a full zipper, pull on boots just doesn't work for me.

They are called ear clips because they clip on the ear around it folds. Like @Shyheels, they don't do much for me. But I can see potential with respect to hearing aids.

Are you sure those were not elephant seals?

Some still do!

An instant swipe left.

@CrushedVamp, bellbottoms are back. I even have a cousin of the bellbottom called SkyScrapers. They have a smaller bell with a slit at the ankles. Now great for boots though,

At one time I was considering starting a "Leggings For Men" company. I would put sport images on the leggings: footballs, soccer balls, baseball, golf, cricket, .... But I didn't, too bad. Men wearing pantyhose for heat was popularize by a football game when the San Francisco 49ers played Chicago Bears on January 8, 1989 in a playoff game on an iconic cold day. 49es won. I don't wear pantyhose, but I have many different different versions of leggings, from very thin to thermal versions for skiing under my bibb. Leggings a so much better that sweatpants, but I wear sweatpants to work in my garden. BWT: I have leggings on this morning as I write. And @Puffer. many doctor's recommend pantyhose for people with leg circulation issues.

They were larger before I tore one. Then that one was over 28 inches for a month. Try get pants on was phun.

Most professional guitar players get acrylic/gel nails because their nails get worn down. Some of my fingernails split from tip to bed others delaminate. Acrylic nails for life. Mani/pedi tomorrow.
