The Starbux Monologues - Part 2

All the Rage

You can't swing a dead rat on a string without hitting some Euro-chick wearing some form of gladiator sandals this season...

No doubt this rage will hit the States soon, so remember you heard it here first.
There were some other head-scratchers that strolled by too...More on those in a minute.

First the sandals:
They come in three flavors-

Ankle high



I didn't get a good pic of the mid-shin variety, but they're out there...

But I did get these-

Sorry I couldn't get a clear shot without walking up to Boyfriend and  knocking him down...
Next time.


These are the just-below-the-knee variety...

I thought I saw a lot of them in Madrid but they are everywhere in Athens too...

And because we're all about statistics here at Listen to Uncle Jay...
During one three-hour stint in Madrid the stats were as follows-

Ankle- 29
Mid height- 7
Knee height- 9

Now, your girl here with her combat boots...

It's an interesting look for late summer in Madrid, but she's workin' it well...

And this poor asshole...

Black clothes & sox, then the white shoes...
Does this guy think he's Pat Boone of something ?
And the popped collar. Wow.

Just keepin' you up-to-date on footwear trends and fashion no-nos.

Well, not the black socks with white shoes and popped collar thing.

Talk to the PC......gladiator sandals were out in the States last year.

You're slippin', ol' man......or maybe you're not used to looking down at women's FEET...? "Oh look! Shoes! When did they start wearing THOSE things??"
