Do You Wear white shoes????
Comments (15)I used to have some really nice white flip flops but last year's puppies nibbled on one and so they ended up with both of them. I haven't bought anymore yet. I like the look of white sandals/flip flops ... but my main problem with them is that so often, people don't keep them clean & white. They are *not* attractive if they're dirty. I don't care for many white dress shoes ... altho a long time ago when I could still wear heels, I had a pair of winter-white (a really really REALLY pale taupe) peep toe shoes that were awesome. I could've worn those babies every single day they were so comfy....See MoreDo you wear your outdoor shoes indoors at home?
Comments (25)I remember the last time this came up. The drama from some on either side of the issue. The ones who have special feet that need shoes on, etc. For me, i take my shoes off most of the time. I'm more comfortable that way, plus there's not the mess in inclement weather. I grew up not taking them off, short of boots, but as I've matured this habit has changed. I think the studying of the Japanese culture and traditions has made me change to a shoes off on entry. For a while, and still occasionally, I'll take off dirty/wet shoes and put on some boat shoes as my semi-indoor shoes, although I'll still wear them out to get mail or to step out for a breath of air or something as long as they're not getting dirty or wet. Plus with the medical issues the latter years, shoes aren't as wanted. When I go someplace I normally take them off especially in the winter but even in the summer as a courtesy to people who take pride in their homes and don't want dirty footprints on everything. I can't understand people who think they can slop through snow, slush, salt, mud and whatever else and then walk on peoples' carpets, wood steps and floors and be offended when people ask them to remove the slop. Maybe people should be washing their feet before entering others' homes. My sister's ex-boyfriend was one who refused to remove his shoes and he insisted on wearing waffle stompers on top of it. He was given the option, and not just at my place but others too, that he can remove his shoes and come in or keep his shoes on and stand in the genkan until he is slushless. People who can (and do) wipe their shoes can wear them AFAIC....See MoreWalking Shoes (but not that kind) for Travel
Comments (14)I just found amazing sneakers at Costco! I bought a pair in black and ordered them also in gray(although they look more silver) because I liked them so much. I then ordered two more to save as it is so difficult for me to get comfortable shoes. They are the Puma Vikky Mesh. I ordered 1/2 size up. I was able to try them on in the store so my usual shoe size was too small. 1/2 up was great. I think they look cute with leggings, ankle jeans, and shorts. ETA: I have a small, wide foot with a high arch, so finding comfortable sneakers and shoes is a feat (pun intended) for me....See MoreFor those who don't wear shoes in the house.
Comments (63)I never go barefoot in the house, ever. First thing in the morning my feet go into the shoes by the bed and they don't come off until I'm ready to go to bed at night. If I were to go barefoot I'd have a backache within a minute! Around the house I wear Alegria slides, which have around 2" heels. I have a lot of pairs, as I love Alegrias! The wedge heel is very comfortable and the footbed conforms perfectly to my feet. If I go out I wear either dressier Alegrias or my pink and gold sneakers or a pair of plain-ish pumps. I'm fairly particular about what goes on my feet - my grandfather owned a shoe store and also made and repaired shoes, and my mother was adamant about wearing shoes that fit well and looked good. People who visit can do whatever they wish concerning what's on their feet. Barefoot or stilettos or workboots - whatever makes you happy! Sable...See Morebbstx
