Happy Friday… let’s talk shoes 👟⁣

I just updated one of my most requested posts—𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽 — including rocker sole styles for those who need a little extra help with stride, plus ankle support options that don’t scream “orthopedic.”⁣

Also, quick behind-the-scenes moment: the affiliate platform I’ve used for the past 6 years is officially done (ugh! 😩), so I’m going back through my website and updating one post at a time. This one is DONE and ready for you. I’ll put the link link in the comments section below 👇

👉 Read it.⁣
👉 Shop it.⁣
👉 Share it.⁣

And as always—if you find a pair you love, tell me. The best finds always come from all of us figuring it out together.

Monday after a holiday weekend always feel extra Monday-ish 😅⁣

So we’re keeping it simple …⁣

This is my real-life formula lately:⁣
Pull-on jeans that feel like pajamas (I have the designer ones on here but found a great dupe fyi)⁣
Button down tops with magnetic buttons⁣
Sneakers with removable insoles (give me the depth I need ordering 1/2 size larger than actual shoe size 👏)⁣
And a bag I can actually get into without a whole situation & wipe clean with water. ⁣

If you want links to anything, just comment, or I'll try to link below 👇

I always figure it out… I just have to get creative first 😅⁣

AFO hack you didn’t know you needed 👇⁣
If you want to wear Mary Jane–style shoes without socks, try slipping a thin sock over your foot plate instead. It creates a smoother layer so your foot slides in easier—and no bulky sock look.⁣

Bonus tip:⁣
You can also use a non-slip (Pilates-style) sock over your foot plate. This is especially helpful with sandals when you don’t want your AFO shifting or sliding around.⁣

It’s little tweaks like this that make a big difference in what you can actually wear.⁣

I linked the shoes in my bio (or in the comments if you’re on IG 👇)⁣
And if you want more real-life hacks like this, head to Trend-Able—I share all the things that actually make getting dressed easier.⁣

Anyone else doing random workarounds like this? 😅

I always figure it out…⁣
I just have to panic first 😅⁣

And if I’m being honest… a lot of my “panic first” moments are very unglamorous.⁣

Like this morning when I went to grab one cotton swab… and the entire box hit the floor 🙃⁣
Or yesterday, rushing while unloading the dishwasher, I dropped and shattered a glass.⁣

CMT hands + not being mindful = not a great combo.⁣

Those are usually my initial spiral moments.⁣
And I’m trying (really trying) to work on that first reaction.⁣ Anyone else?

Spring is starting to feel a little different this year… in the best way.⁣

I’m calling it refined comfort—and it’s one of the 5 Spring 2026 trends I break down (with AFO + hand-friendly pieces you can actually wear) in the latest post on the site.⁣
It used to feel like “pull-on” styles were just for workouts or lounging… or things you wore because you had to. Now? That line is gone.⁣
There are so many pieces—shoes, clothes, bags—that are easy to put on, comfortable enough for all day, and still feel put-together. Not just for people with disabilities… for everyone.⁣

The shoes in this post are a perfect example—easy on, wide-width, rubber non-skid soles, removable insoles, and actually cute. Shoes you want to wear.⁣
I pulled everything together into a full spring post so you can see how it all comes together.⁣

It’s on the Trend-Able homepage + I’ll put the link in the comments section below ⬇️
Save what you love and build your version of an easy, all-day spring 💙

Mondays don’t have to suck… they can actually be the start of a beautiful, sparkly week. 💖⁣ A fresh page. Another chance to move our bodies, try again, wear something that makes us feel good, and keep figuring life out as we go.⁣

No need to be perfect today. Just show up, do your thing, and embrace the perfectly imperfect start of a new week. ✨⁣

I saw this illustration this morning and it was exactly what I needed today… especially after losing an hour of my favorite activity 😴 thanks to daylight saving time.

None of us really want Monday to roll around again… but the reminder that we get to start a new week is a pretty good perspective shift.⁣
⁣Another week to move our bodies, try again, make progress, wear something cute, and keep figuring life out as we go. Not a bad deal.⁣

So if today feels a little slow (or requires a little extra coffee), consider this your reminder: we don’t have to be perfect this week… just perfectly imperfect. 💗⁣
