I wanted to add a note for any readers interested in No. 6 Store clog boots (I have been building my collection of their boots + sandals since 2010!) — you only have to size up in the mid heels, which are coincidentally my favorite silhouette. I have also had pairs that are the “high heel”, and the wedge, and find that both run true to size. As an example, I am a true 38 and take a 39 in the mid heel styles, and a 38 in the high heel or wedge styles.
Also, I believe Svens is the manufacturer of No. 6’s clogs. They’re based in Minnesota and sell their own in-house designs on their website. Many are less fashion-forward (and not always in a good way!) but there are gems to be found there, and I think they tend to be a little bit less expensive, too. Worth a browse for sure!

Oo thanks for these tips!! xx
Hi Jen! I’ve had a slow black Friday morning filled with blog reading, so I caught up on some of your recent posts. I had to comment about a few things! First, my husband and I spent Thanksgiving with just ourselves and your Thanksgiving prayer was perfect. I made my husband read it because I suddenly found myself with a tight throat and tears in my eyes. 🙂 Next, the “Wool Gathering” post is what I needed to read today. The past few years have been hard question years and I love the thought that the answering years will come. I very much am a “wool gatherer” and resonate with “It is OK to feel that you have been searching for something you can’t quite put your arms around, each phase a phantom hug.” I’ll be revisiting that post and the questions and answer post! I hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving and have a great weekend ahead!
Hi Skylar! I’m so glad the Woolgathering piece resonated with you. It is definitely how I felt for many, many years of my life. I still have a bit of the wandering/roaming sensation, even now.
Also so glad you read the prayer — it has such power in its simplicity.
