    My White Sport Coat 3 months ago

    Earlier this year I purchased a dapper white sports coat. My beloved is not fond of it. But many others appear to like it, given the amount of compliments I get whilst wearing it.

    The main hurdle in owning red shoes has been my beloved’s objection. Two things have occurred: One, the above white sports coat has emboldened me to consider that she is not, in fact, the fashion arbitrator that she see herself as. Secondly, I used to own 2 or 3 pairs of shoes tops. I would buy a new pair when the previous pair wore out. The fashionista that shares my bed has a serious shoe fetish. Which, BTW, includes several pairs of red shoes. Apparently all the sharing we do has somehow led me to a place where, in addition to my running shoes, I have: A pair of casual brown shoes, and casual black shoes; I have another two pairs of dressier brown shoes (one light, one dark); The requisite pair of black dress shoes; A pair of semi casual white shoes and a two pairs of boots. Not to mention sandals, flippy floppies, and crocs for indoor use only. So I’ve broken free of the 3 shoe limit, which would have had me wearing the red shoes on a regular basis.

    Given these two things I feel fairly confident this goal will be accomplished very shortly. I wonder how red shoes would look with a white sports coat? I may buy another one of those too :)

    Saw a guy 3 years ago

    Saw a guy two days ago. He had a pair of red shoes on. Didn’t look very good. Hmmm. . . But then again he didn’t have my style.

    I'll walk alone 3 years ago

    I have this thing for red, it’s my favourite colour (back to back Canadian words, cool). I have some red shirts and sweaters (see picture). Red pants and jackets are tacky. But. . . shoes I think that they would be okay. Kind of a splash of personality when worn with a nice black suit, or even with jeans.

    My wife says she won’t walk with me if I get them. But still I can’t help wanting them. The peacock in me desires them. And they may even act as a “whatsit” conversation starter. Or . . . my passion for red has clouded my fashion judgement, and I’ll end up looking like Bozo the clown!
