Your Questions About Rain Shoes Summer

Ken asks…

Dress / Work shoes for NYC Winter?

I am relocating from Phoenix, AZ to New York this summer. It’s a little pre-mature, but I am wondering since it will be my first “real winter”. What shoes do you wear in the city on your way to work in the snow/ sleet/ or rain?

I am a 28 rear old guy who will be working the financial district and I dress business casual (dress pants & button up shirt). I can’t imagine trudging along the city streets in good dress shoes in the snow or rain? Do people change shoes when they get to the office? If so, what do you wear on your way in-sneakers? I am never had to deal with this before until now? Please help thanks!

Ladybugs answers:

Dress as conservatively as possible and you’ll make the best impression.

Don’t dream of wearing sneakers to work or changing your shoes. You are in the most competitive city, competitive field, invest in your wardrobe.

Have 2 pairs of shoes, one that you only wear on rainy days. Get some mink oil to conserve the rainy day shoes. And get a good raincoat.

Do some research, look at the Brooks Brothers catalog. Go to a store like Nordstrom’s or Saks and ask the salespeople to help you (tell them what line of work you will be in). You don’t have to buy from them either, but get specifics about styles, fabrics and even colors. Try to get things that don’t require drycleaning or ironing but are still as conservative looking as possible. This may mean you spend extra, but the time saved in the morning and money saved from no drycleaning will be worth it.

Laura asks…

What kind of shoes should I get?

I’m starting my junior year in High School in a week and I have no shoes!! I live in flip flops over the summer, but I can’t wear them to school. My style is trendy but laid back. Some days I feel like wearing heels and super chic jeans, other days I feel like wearing jeans and an old tee shirt.
I’m girly but I find that I’m drawn to more tom boyish shoes. I want a pair of Converse Chuck Taylors, but my mom says they aren’t practical and won’t go with everything. She says canvas shoes aren’t good in rain. But I like canvas flats like that. Like Keds or along those lines.
I don’t know what kind of shoes to get. Please help me and direct me to stores to look at!!!!!!!

Ladybugs answers:

Converses usually go with everything (if you get a neutral and solid color).
I think you should get one pair of Converses and a pair of flats.
Try some shoes at Wet Seal. They have a great variety!

Thomas asks…

How to dress for the Great British summer?

I live in Scotland, and it appears to be a little more wet here than anywhere else at the moment! Maybe that’s just my imagination…
However, summer weather seems to have ended even though supposedly it IS still summer! When it was sunny I bought summer skirts, flowery dresses, playsuits and sandals. I want to know if anyone has any tips for ‘warming up’ those outfits through the rain? Any cute jackets or shoes I should be looking out for? It’s definitely NOT time to be dressing for winter already so I want to look summery, but not get drenched in the weather!
Help!

Your Questions About Rain Shoes Flats

Steven asks…

How do you say the following in Japanese?

quiet

In winter the weather is quite cold and it usually rains. More clothes are worn to keep us warm. She wears a beanie, a jacket, a sweater, jeans and boots.

In summer the weather is very hot and sunny. We like to wear very little to stay cool. She wears a hat, a singlet, shorts and sandals.

In autumn the weather is fine but sometimes cold. She wears a shirt, a dress, stockings and flats (shoes).

In spring the weather is fine and sunny. She wears a dress and sneakers.

please leave romaji aswell.

Ladybugs answers:

I’ll try my best here…

Shizuka (or if you want quietly, it’s shizukani)

Fuyu wa tenki ga kekko samukute yoku ame ga furimasu. Ippai youfuku o ki-te atatakaku shimasu. (here it’s sort of different, it’s more like”we wear a lot of clothes and keep warm”). Onna no hito (that means the lady, if it’s a little girl then it’d be onna no ko, since there really isn’t exactly a word for she) wa bii-ni o kabutte jaketto to se-taa to jeenzu o ki-te bootsu of hakimasu.

Natsu wa tenki wa totemo atsukute hizashi ga ooi desu. Usuku youfuku o kite suzushiku sugoshimasu. Onna no hito/ko wa boushi o kabutte shinguletto to sho-to pantsu o ki-te sandalu o hakimasu.

Aki wa tenki wa kekko yokute tokidoki samui desu. Onna no hito/ko wa shatsu to doresu to sutokkingu o ki-te *taira na kutsu of hakimasu.* (b/w the * it means shoes that are flat..would that be okay for translating flats??)

Haru wa tenki ga yokute hizashi ga yoku demasu. Onna no hito/ko wa doresu of ki-te suneekaa mo hakimasu.

Did my best! I don’t really know what romaji is, i’ve heard it but im not sure what it means..

Lisa asks…

Rachel from Glee shoes?

in the episode ‘Sectionals’ from glee which was the last episode in the first volume of season one, when they did their final show tunes including Dont Rain On My Parade and You Cant Always Get What You Want, Rachel and the other Glee girls were all wearing shiny black flat shoes, im looking for similar ones to go with my prom dress this year.

I need to be able to purchase them in England or online, so does anyone know of any similar style shoes?
I also need them to be fairly cheap, up to aboyut £30 is the max amount id pay, as ive already dished out quite a bit of money for my dress.

Many thaaanks.

Mandy asks…

What do you pack on a 3 full day trip to Washington DC?

March 18
For a school trip, so we will be outside walking a lot. They said tennis shoes, but the only tennis shoes I have are my running shoes for cross country. I’m NOT wearing those. Would zip up boots – the kind that you wear over skinny jeans – work? And they said to bring to pairs of shoes because it will probably rain so I would be bringing my converse or ballet flats too. I have no idea what else to bring, though.
Teenage girl by the way!

Ladybugs answers:

If you have boots or shoes other than tennis shoes that are comfortable to do alot of walking in then that is better. DC is a place where you can’t be too dressed up, everything goes here, and you’ll look less like a tourist :)

Your Questions About Rain Shoes For Dogs

Ruth asks…

People who dress their dogs?

What do you think about people who dress their dogs? im getting a yorkie puppy in a few months and am planning on dressing her/him im clothing but not like tutus or crazy outfits, more like sweater or a jacket for when its cold or maybe shoes in the winter to keep the ice and snow from getting in between his/her paws or in the rain to keep her from getting to wet, what do you think about people who do this? just looking for input. and if you have some clothing recommendations. thnxs.
jsyk, the breeder is a family friend.

Ladybugs answers:

I think the people who dress their dogs up in silly, frilly clothes would really do better with a doll but as long as the dog is okay about it and isn’t being hurt, it’s alright with me. I put a sweater on my dog in cold weather. He doesn’t need shoes.

With a long haired dog like s Yorkie, if you leave the clothes on too long the hair will get all messed up and tangled underneath. It doesn’t sound like you would do that. If snow gets between your dog’s pads, dip each paw in a bit of warm water when you get home, or just use the boots if your dog will tolerate them.

Http://www.petedge.com and http://www,ryanspet.com have some nice sweaters and jackets at reasonable prices. Have a look.

Maria asks…

it’s raining it’s pouring cats & dogs outside?

it’s raining it’s pouring
cats & dogs outside
there’s a dark haired young girl
with hollywood eyes
sweet plum wishes
and pretty blue dreams
standin’ there and gettin’ all wet
she stands & frets
coz her boyfriend
just drove off with his monkey pet
she walks alone home
with her club foot
she’s no cherry blossom
she looks more like a possum
that jumped out of a train
her hobbling & cursing
on her way home
she leaves her red shoes
by the drugstore
makes her feel quite insane
all of these feelings
of torture & pain
coz she doesn’t know who to blame
for her Hollywood dreams
have just been thrown
out into the street
for the producer
said
“she couldn’t make it
she ain’t worth a penny
she aint a dime”
she hangs down her head
in despondent shame
from this emotional crime
sorry she came from the wrong side of the road
whistling past the grave yard
singing “love is a blind tiger
who took the wrong turn
open your eyes & dont get burned”

Ladybugs answers:

Wow im impressed. (:

Susan asks…

What are the rhyme schemes for these poems?

Fruits
Blueberries are blue
Bananas are yellow
That kind of color is so mellow
Strawberries are red
Apples are green
Sometimes people can be so mean
Lemons are sour
Grapefruits are as pink as a flower
Pears are so yummy
Peaches are so fuzzy

Bees
Three little bees that go by
Collecting honey as they fly
Buzzing and twirling all around
Watch out for the ones on the ground
Giant stinger and a round body too
Don’t go near them or they’ll sting you
Black, yellow, and furry
Watch them as they hurry
Building their nest inside a tree
Making a home for the queen bee

Nature and life
Green trees and bird singing
Owls hooting and church bells ringing
Deer running and bats flying
Cars and trucks honking
Thunderstorms forming
Lightning with rain pouring
Dogs barking
Airplanes flying and cars parking
Trains going
Boats floating

Beach
Ocean waves and shells on the shore
Segal’s looking for food
The beach puts you in a great mood
Strong hot sun
There’s some tanning to be done
Beach balls and games to play
I can tell this will be a great day
Crabs and jelly fish
I must stay away
Only to come back the next day

Clothes
Bargains and clothes galore
Somehow I always need more
Shoes, sweatshirts, and t-shirts too
Even some clothes I bought for you
Giant heels and short ones too
Skirts, pants, and colorful belts
Long and short dresses with bags to match
Flowy tops and strapless ones
Even ones with flowers on them
Stripes and suits and so much more

like abcd ? idk

Your Questions About Ladybug Party

Ruth asks…

B-Day Party Help ?

See I’m having my B-Day party at a ice skating rink. And i’m turning 13 and i’m having a ladybug theme. And I’m having a dirt cake which is a cake that looks like dirt and putting a fake flower in it and gummy worms and ladybug toppers. And it even looks like real dirt. Is this a good idea? any other ideas?

Ladybugs answers:

Wow… Who thought of that show stopper idea… ? It is great.

I don’t have anything quite that cool to add but here is some butterflies for those pansy friends that may not like the dirt… Heehee.

Pretzel Butterflies
Prep Time: 35 min ; Start to Finish: 1 hr 5 min
Makes: 20 snacks Nutrition Information

Pretzel Butterflies are not only a tasty treat, but also a terrific project to bring out the creativity in kids of all ages.

2 cups small pretzel twists (about 45)
1/2 cup white vanilla baking chips or 2 oz vanilla-flavored candy coating, cut into pieces
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/3 cup small round candy-coated fruit-flavored chewy candies (from 4-oz bag)

1 . Line large cookie sheet with waxed paper or cooking parchment paper. To make 20 butterflies, arrange pretzel twists on cookie sheet in groups of 2 with single-hole sides of pretzels touching to form butterfly wings (see diagram). Break remaining 5 pretzels into pieces for antennae; place 2 pieces at top of each butterfly between wings.
2 . In 1-quart resealable freezer plastic bag, place vanilla chips and oil. Microwave on High 1 minute 20 seconds or until melted, squeezing bag to mix. Seal bag; cut small hole in 1 corner of bag.
3 . Squeeze bag to pipe thin zigzag of melted chips between pretzels to look like bodies of butterflies. Press pretzel pieces firmly into melted chips. Pipe melted chips into each hole in wings; top each with 1 candy. Let stand until set, about 30 minutes. Remove from waxed paper; store in tightly covered container.

High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):No change.

White vanilla baking chips can be melted in a 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Use a spoon to apply the melted chips.

Have Fun & Happy 13th

It’s cool you don’t wanna waste a ton of money :)
I really like your clothes too
OK, I LOVE the shoes; how about that with the dress in large and maybe the petticoat. I would be cool if you bought something that dies your hair red for a couple of hours and styled it like La Roux XD
I think maybe something with the Union Jack on it would be cool too, especilaly with those shoes
Charlotte Russe has a London Beat thing going on; you could check that out and see if you own something similar!
