I ended up buying a cute pair of Nike maryjanes and some Keens that mold to the foot and feel like bedroom slippers. I tried the Crocs, they were just too wide for me and that made them less than comfortable.
I bought the mary jane style crocs which I have only wore once to just try them on (I'm not really a Croc kinda girl) but when I did wear them I felt some discomfort where the heel strap connects to the top strap. do you need to break in Crocs, is there a certain way to do so?
I don't know if it would help, but you can stretch the straps. Pull very, very gently. The last thing you want to do is to pull too hard and stretch them too far, since they won't un-stretch. But pull a teeny bit and try them on. Pull more if necessary. But that's only if having the strap more loose would help at all. I'm not sure it would under those circumstances.
Thanks Grrl karma to you, I'll def be trying that!
---I'm sorry in advanced I'm probably going to be posting a lot of questions in the next few days. I'm leaving for florida next Tuesday and I'll be down there for about 4 weeks so I also need to get my bonnaroo stuff packed. I'm trying to just plan outfits to make it easier for myself that way I'm not stressed out more.
My question for now is how is the cleavage situation at Roo? LoL yea it's kind of a strange question but I'm planning on wearing bathing suit tops under some of my dresses, and in pretty much every bathing suit top I have some major cleavage going on (my mom just yelled at me about it while trying on an outfit lol) So I don't want to look out of place and I def don't want to give off the wrong impression... what do you guys think?
I run around with excessive cleavage all the time.
Last year at Roo, I was the only one in my group to be given a free Trojan by the guy handing them out. It felt like he made a special effort to give me one. But other than that (and he was friendly about it), no weird advances or people staring just at my chest.
There are a lot of girls wandering around in just bikinis or just paint so cleavage isn't that big a deal.
^^ don't worry, alessiasurfny, I will also be wearing bathing suit tops under my clothes so expect some major cleavage from me, too. It can't be avoided! We can't help if we're busty and beautiful
This isn't really fashion, but I would think it's a girly thing Does anyone know where to get a good hula hoop? My local Walgreens has a sale on hula hoops right now and I've been thinking about getting one, but they're just basic ones. I remember seeing people with hoops that had pretty ribbons etc. at previous 'roos. Is there a way for me to buy the walgreens hoop and decorate it without messing the weighting up?
I definitely rocking the cleavage. You won't be alone by a long shot.
Oh, and on stretching the Croc straps, this is what the Crocs site has to say:
"To ensure that the strap is not pulling your foot into the front of the shoe, rotate the strap forward and determine if your foot rests comfortably in the foot bed and there is room all around your foot. If so, you have the proper size but the strap is too short. To alleviate this issue, work your fingers around the strap and stretch it as you go around being careful not to put excessive pressure on the rivet hole. Stretch the strap until it is just short of the back edge of the shoe. The resin material has memory and will stay at the proper length after one or two of these types of adjustments."
Personally, I went to the back of the strap, in the center, and pulled in opposite directions very, very gently. One light pull made a big difference for me. Thanks for the karma, alessiasurfsny. Back attcha!

;D LoL thank you jhointn!!
Speaking of bathing suits here is another question...Do any of you girls know where to buy a good underwire/pushup bathing suit/top? Most of my tops are pretty cheap and they don't hold me up as well as I would like. I don't think online shopping is an option for me anymore since I'm leaving in 7 days, but if anyone knows of a store that carries good quality bathing suits for a decent price I'd appreciate it! Thanks xoxox

Thanks so much, I can't imagine being at Bonnaroo with uncomfortable shoes so I really appreciate it!

Yes I do. You can check them out at www.myspace.com/HipEHoops or just PM me and I'll send you some pics. They're $20-$25 depending on style, and you can pick whatever colors you want.

Physicians Formula is good makeup for a decent price and they have a lot to choose from, maybe try that? There bronzers are my favorite! Almay has really good eye liner and mascara also.

Okay, this is not really helpful because it's out of stock, but oh man HOW CUTE IS THIS?
I think I'm actually GLAD it's out of stock, because otherwise I DEFINITELY would have bought it even though I really should not be spending more money. SO CUTE.
i went to 2 different targets and neither of them had any rain boots!!! where else can I find rain boots thats not online cause I need to try them on ???
Nordstrom has really cute rainboots right now. I think they'are about $55, but they are super lightweight and very cute. Every other pair I've seen elsewhere seem to weigh about 5 pounds.

If you buy them online from Target, go down a size to a size and half. I wear a 7.5 and bought a 6 and they're perfect

If you are looking for inexpensive boots I'd check out Payless, I'm sure they sell them. Hope that helps
