Does anyone have Cultured Marble shower/tub surround? Pics?
Comments (5)No Photos yet! :>( This is becoming the gall darn reno from H***! Am hoping to nag- I mean convince DH to get walls taped and plastered today- so then I can prime and Cultured Marble guy can come in to do final measure. I am so ready to have this bathroom done! We do have a working toilet and floor down- yeah- but DS arrives home tomorrow, and I guess he'll be showering upstairs (again!:>). Maybe, just maybe he'll have a shower before he heads back to college! (In two weeks). Would love to pick a paint colour, but as shower base is NOT the colour we picked- am waiting till the walls are in, and then will paint (would have preferred doing the painting first) According to CM guy, walls will be waterproof, priming is to cover the blue board so colour doesn't show through marble. Muscat, what is the trim around your surround? Looks very nice!...See MoreDoes anyone out there have a MAAX smooth bottom tub?!
Comments (2)I have Maax versailles which is smooth bottomed. As we only plan to use it for baths (separate shower here as well), I don't think it is an issue....See MoreSuch a thing as stylish walking shoes?
Comments (49)On a long-time travel forum, where I've made many friends and met them in person, we had a famous 14-page thread about stylish, yet comfortable walking shoes! As a person who averages 8 miles per day when I'm in Paris, I know what has proven to work for me. Caveat -- when in Paris, where I have many friends, I tend to wear nicer shoes than when I'm in more casual locations. You only get one pair of feet, so I spend a bit more on shoes with comfortable arch supports. I've never found inserts to help much. I like leather insoles, or the Skechers Yoga Mat. Here at home in the US, and in London or UK Countryside, I like Skechers with Yoga Mat insoles. Usually, you can get these under $70.00. These are my current go-to Fall slip-ons in grey: http://www.belk.com/p/skechers-relaxed-fit-traffic-slip-on-dress-casual-loafer/290006649109.html?dwvar_290006649109_color=025255484238#q=Skechers&lang=default&start=23 For long walks with my dog on trails and sidewalks in my neighborhood, I wear these slip-on sneakers: http://www.belk.com/p/skechers-go-walk-sneaker/390004754152.html?dwvar_390004754152_color=007286627297#q=Skechers&lang=default&start=29 For wet walks on trails for miles and miles, I wear these here and wore them in the Cotswolds this summer: https://www.rei.com/product/128516/ahnu-montara-iii-event-low-hiking-shoes-womens For Paris (and nicer occasions here at home) -- I wore these L'Amour des Pieds in June in 98 degree heat on city sidewalks. I averaged 8 miles a day, but walked up to 12 miles one day. I didn't wear socks/hose/tights of any kind. These look good with black tights in cooler weather, or black leggings.

They look good with flare-leg retro jeans, skinny leg jeans, slim ankle length pants, long skirts or dresses. https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/lamour-des-pieds-brenn-ankle-strap-sandal-women/4059232?origin=topnav&cm_sp=Top%20Navigation--Women--Comfort&offset=2&top=72&brand=9460 I don't know if they're still available, but in cold weather, I wear my Dansko 'Lola' ankle boots, or one of my three pair of Aquatalia ankle boots. Similar to this pair (I have black, taupe; and I also have a dark grey "moto" boot). I have worn both the black and the taupe in Paris for lots of walking. https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/aquatalia-franca-weatherproof-bootie-women/4794483?contextualcategoryid=2374961&origin=keywordsearch&keyword=aquatalia...See MoreHow long does a walk-in shower need to be to have a towel bar in it?
Comments (2)Sorry, I hit post before I was finished. It also depends on how “ enthusiastic “ a bather you and others are. Some stand still and never splash, others celebrate with wild dolphin bathing. A standard tub is about 60”. When you shower in that space, does water get on the towel? Personally, I think it’s too small for a dry towel, but you need to do some real life experiments....See MoreLaura Mac
