    Susan - you look great and I love that outfit!

    My work is also casual (not even business casual if you go by what most of my coworkers wear!) but I have trouble finding good casual clothing that doesn't look to weekend wear-ish. I love skirts, but pants are tough because everything I own (even my jeans) require some type of heel to fit right. I can't wear heels. And I can't wear open toe shoes, either. It's a pain!

    I think I need to redo my entire work wardrobe. Perhaps I should work harder at losing this weight before I do, so that I don't have to rework it twice!

    Clogs? That's how short pants manage to fit me without alteration Sanita has open and closed back versions (they used to make the footbeds for Dansko before Dansko off shored their production).

    I have to wear suits - it sucks

    Oooh, good idea! I have open backed clogs, and those don't work but closed back ones probably would. Thanks! I'm excited!!

    Hey - weren't you the one who recommended Chaco sandals for my wide feet, too? I think next time I have a shoe issue, I'm just gonna contact you!

    Thanks for the info Susan! I'm pretty much a S in Sugoi so that's why I didn't think of the black as a possibility. I'll look at Greta then! Thank you!

    Ack, I shouldn't have kept reading this thread. I just ordered the loose fit knickers w/out the chamois. They seem perfect for the times I am meeting someone for lunch or an appt. and I don't want to wear a skort. I have 2 pair of the board shorts, in the shorts length and I love them and now I have 2 extra liners that came with them. I also liked the looks of capri length board shorts, but I do not *need* them.

    My Bravo knickers just arrived and they fit perfectly, both with and without liner shorts. I will try them out on the bike tomorrow, while commuting to an appointment.
    I now am thinking about selling my Terry Scooter capris. They are cool looking, but the x smalls are huge on me. They definitely would fit someone who normally wears a small. Great styling and pockets, but for some reason, these are huge, even though every other piece I have from Terry fits me perfectly.
