How many pairs of shoes does it take to get to the center of my addled fashion conscience? Six, apparently.
Heels dress up even my most feeble attempts at winter fashion, but last night at 9:58 on my way to a friend’s birthday party, I couldn’t commit to any of these, or the small pile of outfits that went with them. In the end I wore brown boots — unglamorous workhorses that they are — and walked over to the Lower East Side rather than splurge for a cab. When it’s below zero in Manhattan, for me, substance beats style’s skinny ass every time.
