You are very correct about the not-so-stable feel of that Oofos model. Very cushy, but I think a flatter version would be better (have had back surgery and I have tile floors, so...I love a marshmallow slipper substitute.)

That shimmery green skirt! I have these bronze curtain panels on my canopy bed that reflect light like that. Maybe I should fashion a skirt. But then I wouldn't have the panels, and I love them! (Bought at Habitat UK years ago and gone forever.)

Do you know what material the panels are? And let me know if you find a better sandal (I’m maybe more interested in a slide/strappy situation like the second so i can wear it with socks outside of the hottest months haha)

I'm sure they're just polyester. They have fantastic shimmer, though! (Habitat has gone downhill from the days when they used to have more innovative design.)

I like the Birkenstock Kyoto Shine! A slide, but you can tighten them more easily to stay on.

Ahh, see Birkenstocks are too far opposite to the oofos for me—I need more cushioning for my awful paws lol

love my oofos so much!! i play roller derby which is extremely difficult for my feet but using oofos as my house slippers has helped tremendously.

debaser is my favorite fig scent by far. that hint of coconut milk is addicting! i need to find my sample of steamed rainbow again. i was expecting petrichor from it and it isn't that, but you've convinced me to try it again!
