Emergency! Emergency!

[newlifeinstpaul]

I rushed home from work today before lunch...
Ran through my closets, desperately searching...
And then quickly to the store...

...cuz my shoes weren't the right color for my outfit.

I am such a GIRL.

Spastic gland.

WERE THEY PINK?

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

Pfffffffffffffffffffffffft.

You don't have to worry...unless your shoes also match your purse. Do they?

[princess-design.livejournal.com]

Does it have sequins?

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

They're sparklie-spanglies.

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

It's a MANBAG.

btw, Tom has a canvas bag he bought in San Francisco sometime back that he loves and carries it everywhere. His daughter and I lovingly call it his "man purse"

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

Ew?

[ehmondieu.livejournal.com]

It's a small bag. He mostly carries his insulin in it, no biggie.

there's nothing wrong with being a well dressed man! That's one of the things that I really adored about you!

[toomuchtalk.livejournal.com]

You should always have a neutral pair of shoes in your trunk! One dress pair and one "ok, my feet give upon life" pair of shoes (aka sneakers)

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

But basic black just wouldn't do in this case.
Not...at...ALL.

also

[toomuchtalk.livejournal.com]

I am proud of you.

Who wuz you trying to impress, eh?

Re: also

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

My basic sensibilities, more or less.
I had no laundry.

[wlotus.livejournal.com]

Oh my god...you are far more of a girl than I am! :-D

(Wandering through via my "Friends' Friends" list.)

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

But you don't understand!

A tan shirt and beige linen pants are NOT gonna work with black shoes or burgundy and the closest thing I had on hand otherwise were loafers in sort of a butterscotch/pumpkin color. That was gonna clash more than the other choices!

[wlotus.livejournal.com]

I'd have just pulled on the black shoes and called it a day.

You'd have a heart attack, if you went up in my closet. I am SO not a clothes shopper, it isn't funny!

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

I'm single now, so I pretty much BETTER care.

[wlotus.livejournal.com]

LOL! I didn't say I don't care; I said I'm not a clothes shopper. Don't misunderstand: I've got it together when I go out of the house. I'm just saying what I have I take care of and keep for a long time, and I don't stress about whether black shoes would "match" with a tan shirt and beige slacks; black would be more than good enough for me. I just strive to be clean and neat and (above all) comfortable, not a fashion plate. I've learned from experience that your average women's clothing and ESPECIALLY women's shoes are not built for comfort. If I can't be comfortable, I cannot be so bothered to put it on my body.
