    How to Repair a Torn Leather Shoe?

    That's what I was thinking. I'll take it to the cobbler today. Thanks for the tip, Tomasso.

    Ladies - a cashmere scarf for a gift -- good idea?

    A few questions for you to consider: Does she usually wear scarves? What is her style: classic, romantic, dramatic, granola girl? What color is the coat she'll be wearing the scarf with? What colors does she look good in? What size is she? I know scarves are supposed to be one size...

    How to Repair a Torn Leather Shoe?

    I don't have a digital camera, so let me describe the tear. It's where the little toe hits, and it's about 1" long. It goes from the sole up to the top of the shoe. It's a straight line.

    How to Repair a Torn Leather Shoe?

    I just bought a lovely pair of red 1930s shoes last night. The only problem is that one shoe has a tear in the leather on the side. I know this cannot be repaired to look like new, but I'd like to repair it and wear it anyway. Any suggestions?

    All hope is not lost

    I thought it was funny. :) Seriously, I think that all these things (except for the flying poop) account for sidewalks being set far from the street in older neighborhoods. And I've known for years that there is plenty of hope for young people. My source of information? The polite and...

    Yes, if it's done, it should be seamless. We've seen what offering explanations leads to.

    Which Color Shoe?

    A few years ago, Marc Chevalier had a whole thread on how oxblood shoes went with practically everything.

    All hope is not lost

    Three steps away? I'd assume the guy didn't want to be seen with me. At any rate, a man who doesn't automatically take the street side isn't rude, he's just probably never heard of the practice. I didn't know anyone still did this.

    All hope is not lost

    As I recall, men put themselves between the street and a lady to protect the lady from out-of-control horses. Not the etiquette needs a practical purpose. I admire good manners as much as the next person, but I think I'd find this particular practice affected in this day and age.

    People either love this book on an emotional level or hate it on an intellectual level.

    U.S. Army considers new uniforms

    I thought of another instance where the Air Force basic training ribbon isn't worn: by someone who joined the Air Force from another branch of the military.

    How to pronounce "Django" Reinhardt's moniker?

    Django rhymes with tango. The D is silent. Great clip, Dinerman!

    The Stuff of Nightmares.

    I liked 1 and 3. The rest were just cheesy and over the top for me.

    Return of...............

    Even in the swing dance scene, I haven't seen anything flapper inspired. When ragged clothing starts to be associated with poverty and unemployment, we'll see a return to good style.

    Twilight

    The Wall Street Journal has this to say in today's paper: Attention, all 13-year-old female readers of this newspaper: Run, do not walk, to the nearest multiplex playing "Twilight," the screen version of Stephenie Meyer's best-selling potboiler about a principled vampire and the teenage girl...

    Twilight

    I'm reading Twilight right now. Yeah, I think Edward's a controlling jerk. He keeps saying "I shouldn't be with you. You shouldn't be with me." Well then, go your separate ways. Their relationship reminds me of that silly book "The Rules." His big attraction to Bella? She smells good. Yay...
