Fashion Faux Pas: Wearing Crocs to the Gym

Only recently have I begun frequenting the local gym with my boyfriend.  Okay. I get that the gym (especially here, basically the middle of the woods) really isn't meant to be the most fashionable place.

But that does not make it acceptable to wear Crocs while working out.  EVER.  

This is a true story.  I was working out in a section that works as a "30 minute express workout".  You alternate between using machines and doing step aerobics. And, yes, you guessed it.  There was a woman wearing a pair of disgusting Crocs.

Not only is that totally ugly, it's also completely unsafe.  Crocs are not meant for working out--they fall off too easily and don't really stay on your foot.

I'm actually really surprised that an employee didn't see her and tell her how unsafe it was.

This is yet another time that I should have written out a Fashion Citation.

How many times do I need to write about my hatred of Crocs before they disappear from my life??!
