This shirt is fab - so glad you got it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-754013 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 04:41:24 +0000 DonnaF 754013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You may also want to try changing shoes mid-shift -- so that your tootsies have more places to hurt, lol! But different shoes stress slightly differently, and if you are cashiering, that will definitely require a standing shoe vs. a walking shoe. FWIW, I like Danskos better for standing than walking which can sometimes be treacherous if you step wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753848 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 22:55:51 +0000 rae 753848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do already have insoles. Thanks for explaining body glide. I don't know if I have a problem with bisters (yet!) but I should probably have some on hand in case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753842 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 22:41:34 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 753842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, body glide is a silicone gel used to prevent chafing/rubbing. I like to use it on inner thighs in the summer to prevent chafing when wearing skirts, but many use it on their feet to prevent blisters.</p> <p>I second the advice for cushioning insoles, they can make a huge difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753821 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 21:41:44 +0000 rae 753821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you about the differences between merely walking and all the standing/squatting/pushing/pulling that I do at work now. There is a lot of bending to put things back on hangers, for example. Not a leisurely walk through Italy at all!</p> <p>Angie, I ordered a kitten heel Fidji off of Amazon Warehouse - hoping they might work out, as they are a really cool bright lemon color. Also trying some Crocs ballet flats that actually remind me of a United Nude pump I was drooling over. I had a pair of crocs canvas flats once, and they were very comfy. </p> <p>But what is body glide? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753777 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 19:17:30 +0000 Thistle 753777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun outfit!</p> <p>Sorry about your footsies. I have heard good things about Danskos. A friend of mine who is a nurse swears by them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753730 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 17:07:12 +0000 JulieJohn 753730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear good things about those funky-looking Skechers with the rounded soles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753709 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 16:02:00 +0000 Transcona Shannon 753709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good night gorgeous lady! Listen to Angie about insoles and glide and heels Rae - you need your tender tootsies to be happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753697 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 15:50:47 +0000 Mochi 753697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love girlie-tuff outfits like these. Great! Hear ya on the foot pain. Do you especially do more standing than walking? For me, it's the standing in place that really kills. You may need special work footware....(footwear?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753682 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 15:19:33 +0000 Angie 753682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER outfit. One of my Rae-Faves! </p> <p>Working the sales floor for hours is *very* tough on your feet. I soooooooooo get it. You need to invest in cushioning insoles and body glide. May I also suggest lower heels than three inches. Two inches will make all the difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753593 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 11:31:03 +0000 missvee 753593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit - I love the belt and shoes! Ceit's right about walking vs standing - I can walk for miles but slow browsing or standing around tire me out in no time. You could try a nice cushy insole and see if that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753577 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 10:52:12 +0000 Anonymous 753577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Walking and mostly standing or walking back and forth are two different beasts I think. It puts different stress on your body.</p> <p>I love this look and might just copy it if I can find a shirt as great as that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753574 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 10:05:40 +0000 Deborah 753574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae your outfit looks great. I like the repeat of the lighter color of the boots with the belt. Sorry about your sore feet. I guess you just don't know until you are on your feet all day just how well or otherwise your shoes will go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-kitty-civvies#post-753563 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 07:07:51 +0000 rae 753563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a quick post before bed. I closed today at work, but this is what I wore out to Korea Town with Hubs before my shift started. Just jeans and a tee, but I like how the tonal velvet leopard goes with the "snowcat" spotted shoes. I also ended up adding my Shoptoberfest cat pendant before I left the house. This girl loves a theme!</p> <p>Also: I think I'm going to start keeping track of how my various shoes fare on the sales floor. Because although my Report Marks booties managed to take me all over Italy, my poor dogs started barking after only 6 hours of retail work! I was pretty shocked. </p>
