I went shoe shopping this weekend with some of your rules in mind. Unfortunately, a lean pocketbook, a recently broken pinky toe, and a job that has a high probability of me crawling under a desk to disconnect something all combined to leave me frustrated and new shoeless.
When does common sense or fashion precepts dictate that open toe shoes give way to a closed-toe shoe?
The other week you disclosed that temperatures in DC have fallen sufficiently to render the wearing full-length boots appropriate.
Though boots remain, at the moment, a sight as rare on the street of DC as Cheery Blossom, a point in time will inevitably arrive when closed-toe shoes and boots are simply "de rigueur," and open-toe shoes and all other vestiges of summer are banished for yet another year.
When does that fashion crossover point arise in DC?
Each day, with old man candor, I'll offer my brand of style counsel to the professional DC women who believe a serious job is a valid excuse for an ill-fitted, office inappropriate, comfort first work wardrobe. And when the mood strikes me, which is often, I'll also muse about celebrity fashion and my own fashion-related comings and goings, both of which, I'm sure, are of great interest to you.

Man legs? I think not.
