yeah....old shoes were poor quality and not-so-awesome style. *shrug*
working on guardianship stuff, so I go to court lots. nice to look appropriate.
also, this guardianship stuff has me feeling _very_ thankful for how healthy I am. Met one kid that is IDD + had a shitty mom that didnt take care of him. He ended up banging his head on the wall so hard he made himself blind . fuck.
The Strand? Good shoe choice. Not the best for court though, imo. Can't beat a solid black/brown blucher with a business suit though.
I was actually going to get the Strand but it's too much detailing for me. I have the Park Ave and the Suede Amok thus far, probably will get a couple more in the coming year or two.
You actually know what shoe that is? Whoa. +1.
I would really like a 5th ave, but this Strand pair was on sale. As for the style in court, where I plan to go, many people (including judges) wear their ostrich boots, or some other nice cowboy boot --- some wear black walmart/payless "dress" shoes w/velcro and all *cringe*. I can't stick out much more than that. haha. Anyway, unless people _know_ shoes (e.g., you), they won't notice what's on my foot, so long as it is black.
Drake, my buddy's bro just came out, too. They (family) always thought of him as a "ladies' man". That said, he only came out to his bro. Your brother the same?
Also, how do you feel about it all?
