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!

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!
