Fashion Advice for Evil

I'm finally getting around to answering Evil's post below "How Many Pairs Of Shoes Should A Man Have?" Others may have the same question, but I have to warn you: this really needs to be tailored per person. For Evil, the magic number is 9.

Evil: for the office, you need need to keep a stash of nice shoes, and then get 1 or 2 semi-nice pairs for transit to and from the office. You might not be as career successful as ET#2 who has room for a shoe drawer at work, but that's okay. We can still work something out.

You need 2 pairs (one brown and one black) for transit. Then in the office, you need to store 2 pairs of black of differing styles and 1 more brown. I'm leaning a bit more toward black as the dominant color since it will unlikely compete with your choice of very ecletic and colorful office attire.

At home, you can have 1 pair of boots (like cowboy boots), athletic sneakers, and then cool sneakers (not for athletics) like Pumas or Pradas. Finally, you should get 1 pair of mandles. These are man-sandles, where you slide your foot right in and perfect for summer, which is right around the corner. Check D&G.

Evil, I hope this helps and you will soon have happy feet. And, yes, I'm available for consultation for anyone else.
