I have this arch support brace that goes on my foot that I wear when it starts acting up (I think you bought it for me actually?). <br /><br />The pants look FABULOUS! No wrinkles! Amazing. Obviously Claire Kennedy is the most fabulous being ever. <br /><br />Rad on the trench coat. Such a must have!

But of course they are not beautiful, but not all that klunky. They have some nice sandals and general work shoes. A friend has also found that this is the only brand she can wear without activating her similar foot problems. I just went on their web site and discovered that they have just come out with some winter boots... there may be a pair in my future.Rachel Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13954673291122592603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297064581728205842.post-56178020920074190222010-09-16T17:29:56.998-04:002010-09-16T17:29:56.998-04:00You were so charming on PR shopping day I had no i...You were so charming on PR shopping day I had no idea you were in so much pain.

I have been s...I am sorry to hear about your feet. I have been suffering with Plantar Fasciatis for over a year myself. First I lost 25 lbs, this helped some (I must admit that I have gained back 7 lbs.) Next, I finally got custom made orthopedic insterts this August. These have made a real difference. It's been a long and *expensive* journey, and now I can only wear clunky shoes. On the up-side, my feet are feeling better and I am able to walk my kids to school (I walk about 2 miles a day on average during the week.) I was told that the plantar fasciatis was a consequence of the biomechanics of my feet, and without corrective inserts I will just keep aggravating my situation. Good luck finding a resolution with yours. You have my complete and utter sympathy!<br /><br />As for your pants, what a coup! I am still on a quest for flattering, well fitting pants myself. Thank you for posting all the details about your pants adjustments. It's good to learn.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551387452771116176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297064581728205842.post-61694229901279375232010-09-16T12:19:18.263-04:002010-09-16T12:19:18.263-04:00Good to hear you're feeling better, I missed y...Good to hear you're feeling better, I missed your posts. How wonderful to have a pattern you can now take up, cut and sew. Saves a lot of time. And of course looking forward to the coat. Looks like a great pattern. <br />I have traced the 3 graces t-shirt yesterday evening, will be my first hotpatterns pattern. But I'll first finish two other projects.Sigridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187364244385056641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297064581728205842.post-18423807008738430992010-09-16T11:12:30.370-04:002010-09-16T11:12:30.370-04:00So sorry to hear you've been having foot troub...So sorry to hear you've been having foot trouble, but I'm glad it's beginning to improve.<br /><br />I'm sending a huge thank you your way. I also have that fabric and lining and desperately need a new coat. Being height-challenged, I wasn't sure a double-breasted style would work for me, and like you, I hadn't found a single-breasted pattern. I've placed my order for the La Mia Boutique as well.

It took me months to get it under control and I had to get all new shoes; mostly Mephistos worked for me, but there are other good brands too.
