Overhead in the Park.....
Woman #1 (with more fashion than sense): What in the world are those women doing wearing flip-flops? Don't they know it's October?
Woman #2 (with more patience than me): But it's October in (insert our state of residence here). It's too hot for anything else!
Kudos my dear!!! Comfort and common sense a part of our fashion decisions - that's what I like to see! I know that I'm still a slave to the no-white-shoes-after-Labor-Day rule, and all that..... but I say if it's 78 degrees in December (which isn't uncommon in the Deep South), then wear those flip flops. Hose? Bah - who needs 'em? (And I don't care how white your legs are. Un-hose those white legs!) They're helpful in the little bit of cold weather we get. Other than that, they are good for nothing but upping your core body temperature.
You get my point. I think we should have an award for people who spread common sense and logic in the face of questionable opinions that really don't make sense. The Zoo's FlipFlop award?
FlipFlops to you, Woman Number Two!!!

Lose the flip-flops? No way! They are a seasonless fashion staple in the Deep South...
One note, though, I change from the brightly-colored ones for summer to the black and brown ones for winter...does that count??
Ahhh - absolutely. That gets you a gold star in Fashion Sense Down South!
He he, when we were still in Corpus it was HARD to think about winter-wear at all, much less wear it! But, we still did change to back dress shoes after Labor Day....flip flops though were never my thing, but my trusty sandals were worn YEAR ROUND! (and still are around the house even when it actually does get cold in N. TX!)
oops, that should've been BLACK dress shoes....why am I on the computer again at midnight?
