Being new to style, I have only now discovered that the only thing worse than wearing a pair of flat-toed shoes would be to wear a pair of field-dressed house cats instead. And, as you might guess, most of my shoes are flat-toed. The only exceptions are a some casual sneakers and a pair of cowboy boots.
With the holidays coming up, I'll have to attend several dinner parties, family gatherings, and the occasional end-of-the-year business meeting (though I use the word "business" very loosely--hoodies and tennies are the norm at the office), all events that require a bit more than sweatpants and a favorite t-shirt. Unfortunately, I won't be in a financial position to invest in a proper pair of shoes until after the holidays. So my question to the Dappered community is this:
Do I go ahead and wear the square-toed shoes and suffer the scorn and derision of my sartorial superiors, or would it be better to dress down to something I can wear with casual shoes?
