So funny!

March 3, 2023 5:32pm 5:32 pm

I wore ballet flats for a hard-walkin’ two-week trip to England and Scotland in 2021 and gave myself a case of plantar fasciitis that didn’t respond to physical therapy, at-home remedies, or necromancy until LAST MONTH; I thought I’d never run again. It was the dumbest thing I’d done to my body since I was a freshman in college and decided to attach my dorm key to my navel ring.

March 3, 2023 6:51pm 6:51 pm

I just LOL’d

Dorm key to navel ring? Oh no!

March 3, 2023 7:30pm 7:30 pm

The key…. 🤣 oh this made me laugh, thank you! I hope your foot is fully better and you are running again, that sound horrendous

March 3, 2023 7:45pm 7:45 pm

oh my goodness! hahaha 😆 🤣 so funny. ty <3

“Cardigan as a shirt anything could happen” love it and accurate

March 3, 2023 3:09pm 3:09 pm

Oh man, I’m wearing that exact cardigan as a shirt right now, ha! These comics are always spot on.

March 3, 2023 2:54pm 2:54 pm

Will I ever find a ballet flat that doesn’t give my HUGE blisters? Am I the only one?

March 3, 2023 3:45pm 3:45 pm

You are not alone. I drift toward fisherman sandal flats instead.

I have a pair of suede Sam Edelman ballet flats that I have walked miles in with no blisters….and I am not a person who can usually wear ballet flats without getting blisters. Like most ballet flats, though, I can’t say they have any support.

March 3, 2023 6:45pm 6:45 pm

*nods* Camper makes the only ones that have ever kept me blister-free. 😁

+1 on Camper shoes, but my personal favorite flats are from Allbirds. I love everything their brand stands for, but more importantly their flats are super comfy and they hold my orthopedic soles. They’re not cheap though, so I held off on buying them for a long time. To me they’re well worth the splurge though

This comic is so eerily accurate. Grace never misses.

March 3, 2023 1:45pm 1:45 pm

Felt seen by this comic 😂. Have plantar fasciitis and cardigan as a shirt would definitely be a huge statement for me ❤️

March 3, 2023 1:30pm 1:30 pm

HA! Wearing a cardigan as a shirt looks so cute, but feels so wrong.

March 3, 2023 1:25pm 1:25 pm

The cardigan caption got me :D

March 3, 2023 1:20pm 1:20 pm

Made me laugh since I’ve spent some time wondering if I can just pretend my two year old’s wild, mullet-esque hair (that she absolutely will not let anyone try to tame) is a wolf cut.

OMG I have had the exact same inner conversation about my 2023 plantar fasciitis and 2023 ballet flats!

March 3, 2023 1:40pm 1:40 pm

Same, same. Still cry-laughing here about it.

March 3, 2023 2:35pm 2:35 pm

I am dying–I just had this conversation with my 30-something nieces!

Related: “Will I ever find a chunky loafer/ballet flat/slingback heel that will accommodate my wide feet?”

Oh man, SO HARD to find shoes for wide feet (plus a bunion!) that don’t look tragically orthopedic.

March 3, 2023 3:19pm 3:19 pm

“tragically orthopedic” is my motto for life.

March 3, 2023 3:27pm 3:27 pm

11W here, ladies… check out Andre Assous, Birdies, Maguba, Poppy Barley, Soft Star Shoes. All wearable, many sizes and widths. Varying levels of pricing in my list, fair warning; I listed them lowest to highest.

March 3, 2023 5:18pm 5:18 pm

I have wide feet and I just got a pair of chunky vagabond loafers on Poshmark that have a surprisingly wide toe box. I think the style is called Kenova! Usually loafers run so narrow in the toe, but these are comfy.

March 3, 2023 7:50pm 7:50 pm

Try Bjorn shoes! Not a ballet but I have a pair of loafers that are nice and wide from them

March 3, 2023 9:31pm 9:31 pm

Wide feet due to bunions, try Trotters and Softwalk! Cute styles can be found, the Gia flat from Trotters looks like Everlane—it has a slight heel and even has room for my orthotics.
