This morning I get to work and looked down at my feet and had a black sandle on one foot and a white one on the other. Same style, but different colors.. Imagine my horror!! Nothing I could do about it. AND we have examiners!! Thank goodness my husband was around town and brought me my matching shoe at lunch! I'm sure there are others that have done the same.... blush

Ive done it more than once actually, but with a black and blue shoe or a black and brown shoe. Sometimes I am still half asleep or in such a hurry that i just grab my shoes and go...and not until I'm in office that I even notice.

Have also done it with black & navy. That's what I get for buying the same style of shoe in multiple colors. I would like to think I would notice if they were as different as black & white!

Consider putting a complete change of clothes and shoes in your closet at work. So far I have put to use almost every item. Belt, tie and shirt are the most commonly used. shirt was torn and I didn't know it! Luckily I had a spare.

I had a (male) employee who came in once with one black and one brown shoe. The real problem - one was slip on and the other had laces. How the h#&$ do you do that?

They are actually selling girls socks now that are not matches. You can buy a package of 6 socks where none of them match!

^^ HA!

I've brought the wrong color shoes before but when I'm getting dressed for the day I notice and end up having to go home to remedy the situation. Never found out later in the day or had mismatched shoes though, yet.

I've got 4 pair of dress shoes at work (I wear sneakers to and from work) and wear a reversible belt just in case. My house is only 1 mile from my office so it's not a real big deal if I mess something up, but I really do wish there were Garanimals for adults....

MonKEE came across my running shoe grave yard yesterday in the hall closet eek shocked eek

TJ - my husband takes his old running shoes and makes yard shoes out of them. I think we need to cull the herd, though. There are shoes everywhere.
