my hip mom
so my mom has these fuzzy slippers (the one on the bottom) but in navy blue and she showed me the other day how she went to great lengths to get soles added to the bottom of her slippers so she could wear them out of the house. not just the cheap soles but high quality soles for walkin’
she usually pairs the shoes with some leggings, making sure the leggings tuck nicely into her slippers. my mom is always coming up with quirky little things like this so i didn’t think much of it, just chalked it up to another mom-thing.. they look sort of like mini-uggs but they definately make you look twice because you probably have a pair of these sitting up in your bedroom.
so i’m reading the fashion section of the new york times and i come across this bit: “a microfad recently noted among privileged young women in elite
neighborhoods of the Upper East Side, the wearing of bedroom slippers
on the streets…. a pair of fuzzy suede moccasin-style slippers, the sort lined with shearling and with a roll of fur turned down on each side.”haha! i almost fell over.. my too-hip-for-me mom… setting her own trends. i love it!

tis true. tis true. the whole time in the board room i was think…ok heidi, shut up now. please. i think nicole should have gotten the axe for sleeping. kristine should have blamed nicole for the wrong number.
