Thank God I don't really accessorize. LOL, my big goal is to get some Brown Danskos so I can wear ALL brown at some point. You just can't go all brown with black shoes, so then it's annoying because you have to mix brown and black otherwise and I have tons of brown outfits from when I wore high heels. I have worn a single black pair of Dansco clogs to work everyday.
LOL LOL I also wore them on nanny interviews. This one couple the dude asked me, "Are those cultural?" I think the implication was, they were UGLY. My diplomatic answer was, "No these are shoes worn by smart people I promise I can chase your kids down in these."
I was super happy when I found other work to email, "I am pretty sure I am not your first choice for a nanny, and believe me, you are not my choice either. However, I have found other work, so I am notifying you."
They had a smart fridge. I'm not kidding. I don't tend to do well with that type of family. They interviewed me without the kids present, were mystified at my bringing activities for the kids, but they talked about their smart fridge for like TEN MINUTES.
I did have a pair of brown danskos, but the little dog ate them. That was right before he became an outside dog, he ate SO MANY pairs, and that pair, I had kicked off, to sit on the couch. He was lying right underneath BLATANTLY gnawing them.
I will admit that my thought process was, "OUTSIDE. One more pair of shoes, and the dog gets it!"
