barefoot fashion

[uncle sams sister in law]

If you want your feet to look look why not paint your toenails. I dont often go out completely barefoot in public, but reds blues and purples work for me, and even black if im dressed in dark colours.

A lot of us dont bother doing this but personally I think that if theyre out then they have to look pretty. What do you permanently barefoot girls think of that?

Went out to dinner with two friends last weekend.
There had been a fair bit of snow but it had stopped. While we were driving however there was a considerable snowstorm and when we parked the car we had about 400 yards to walk to the restaurant on pavements which had several inches of fresh snow over ice. One of my friends was wearing fur lined ankle boots, the other long fashion boots wit a 3" heel. I was barefoot as usual. Both my companions slipped and fell, one of them several times, I didn't. By the time we reached the restaurant they both admitted that their boots had let in the wet and their feet were cold and very uncomfortable. My feet were cold (which I'm used to and which doesn't particularly bother me) but within a few minutes they had dried off and were nice and warm.

Hi Barefoot Susan,

Good to hear from you again?

You are absolutely right,- as you probably remember I have been going barefoot quite a while now, and continued to do so in the recent snow.

As you say, I did get my feet a little cold, but at least ' was'nt slidding all over the place. Also, as you say they soon dry and warm up again as soon as I am indoors anyway.

What happended to your friends when you reached the resturant, - were they able to remove their boots or did they have to be uncomforatable all evening?

When we had the snow so many people were getting their shoes soaked, it was a relief just to be going barefoot!! I noticed in a few places like banks and office either people going shoeless because their footwear was wet or shoes / boots under radiators!!

Also, a frind of mine said her saughter got her shoes soaked waliking to school in the snow, and as she did'nt have another pair had to wear the same wet or damp shoes to school for several days. I noticed girls walking to our local school in the snow and they must have had soaking shoes and been freezing as they were only wearing really flat mules and stuff.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Zoe.

Thank heaven the weather has got a bit warmer and I can go barefoot again.
I hate wearing shoes but I can't quite face going bare foot all through the winter.
I'm OK so long as its above about 8 deg C so I've been able to leave my shoes behnind this week.

I work barefoot year round. No way would I take a job where I had to wear shoes.

I would politely ask that you withdraw that remark.
You do not know me, where I live or what job I do.
Believe me there is nothing particularly unusual around here to working barefoot.

I was walking barefoot today and found out, it was colder than I thought it was, because it stated to snow and melt on impact. I walked for over 30 minutes and my feet were never uncomfortably cold, and was surprised how stimulating it felt. It felt so natural that bystanders could care less.

I spend a good part of my work day barefoot, I do interior design work for a condo builder. The new home owners get to come in my office and select paint colors, carpet colors, counter tops , cabinets ect............

I have never had a client complain about my lack of shoes and several clients will remove their shoes as well when they notice my lack of footware.

Hi Nora,

I work for a new home builder in the UK. As the sales office office is based in the show home I usually have my shoes off and have not had any complaints. I am usually in stockings feet rather than barefoot, but I guess it is really the same thing!!

I fine it so much more comfy than having to wear heels all day.

Hope you might relpy.

Not surprisingly both my daughters go barefoot most of the time however, they have always had to wear shoes or sandals for school.
Now they have both moved to a college which has very relaxed dress code and they are able to go barefoot to lectures. The college has asked that they wear footwear if they are on work experience or similar occasions when they are representing the college but otherwise its up to them whether or not they have anything on their feet.
