I also have big feet, I feel your struggle. I was worried because they didn’t come in a wide but luckily the open top means that they’re lest restrictive and fit well. I really need shoe companies to start making Mary Janes for men because then I’ll always be set

I love these silly shoes

A friend told me about mary jane style Hokas and I have never bought a pair of shoes SO FAST. Especially because they’re red and pink??? Can’t wait for these to arrive so I can make them my shoes of the summer.

She’ll be glad to hear this

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 11d

She’s going to love this validation

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 11d

She’ll be delighted to hear this

I asked her and she said that Northern Europe likes personal space, don’t feel the need for unnecessary smiling etc. Southern Europe is more friendly/outgoing etc.
She also has not been to Europe and is just being silly

Although my theory would be maybe Northern Europe has more trains and Southern Europe likes to party?

She said if you know you know, and tbh I also do not know

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 11d

Hahaha she’ll be delighted to hear this

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 11d

Haha totally understand that hesitation but this was a great tag :D I always love seeing stuff like this

Please enjoy my friend’s “banger tweet”:

Screen shot of someone from a conversation saying:

Unsurprisingly, there were a lot of goths at the Dracula ballet

I had my best ever jazz dance class tonight. I remembered all the steps (more or less) and hit things mostly on the beat. The instructor grabbed my arm at the end to excitedly tell me that I’m improving. I’m high on dance now

YES! That is exactly how I feel. When my nails get too long, everything feels terrible

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 16d

It is SUCH a delight! It was so rare for me to find stores in Vancouver (other than Old Navy, which is okay but not very exciting) where I could try things on

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 16d

I keep buying clothes since I’ve moved back to Australia. Everything is just brighter, more colourful, and I’ve been able to actually try on all these items in person before buying. The plus size clothing scene here isn’t perfect but def having a better experience than Vancouver

It’s taken me so long to get used to a “normal” fingernail length. I’m so used to the skin being exposed that for a long time my fingertips felt deadened

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 16d

Yeah I need to paint mine all the time to help stop me biting, which is time I could better spend elsewhere, but oh well

Lex Sugden 🌈🦇🪡 @alexisdraws.bsky.social · 17d

I successfully stopped biting my nails (because I chipped a tooth!!) and I miss my little nubbins. My nails look so nice but I hate the sensation of having them.

Made a bear for my niece’s new baby. It matches the bear I made for her first baby, but a different colour

Found four four leaf clovers yesterday! There was also a palm sized clover on the other side of the fence that I’m very sad I couldn’t get
