Thanks for starting the thread @lolakimono   I sincerely laughed when I read your bah humbug comment.  I like New Balance shoes and am interested in why your favorite is the 574.

They are the first (and only NB) I have tried. I figured there is a reason why they have been selling that for many years (since 1988). 

I encouraged BF to try them and now he's hooked.  

I used to be a Nike/Adidas girl.

Then I switched to Ryka, but some of the MIC has been shifting to memory foam (no support).

I ordered the floral pair of 574 from Anthropologie and so far that's what I'll continue to buy.  They have really good support and mostly I use them for walking.  During the school year, when I go to the gym before school, I walk for an hour so between that and standing all day, I need support.

I still think that HSN situation is crazy after all these years @lolakimono.

So, again, after spending all of July hunting the perfect swimsuit, this piece is now on its way.

see? This top covers EVERYTHING!

Because this brand offers swimsuits priced separately for tops/bottoms, there are many pieces available on ebay. 

But, nooooo, I had to order, after all, from M.
Macy's, in general, has been a very good source of doing this summer because I can order online and pickup/try on there in the store/immediately return what doesn't work, etc.

Yesterday, I also received help in finding a perfume...first time to wear in over 10 years.

@LTT1  swim season is gonna be over by the time you find a suit.  Now, admitting that I haven't worn a swimsuit in years.... I can say I am at the age where if I had someplace to take a dip and swim, I'd go with a one piece and just say 'chuck it'.  I know what you look like and you don't have enough 'flaws' to worry about.

@lolakimono   is the D o c t o r   letting you in with mr handsome and ms fancy feet or do you have to hand them over in a parking lot?

I may give the style (574) a try.  Thanks @lolakimono
