Life is Ugly in Flip-Flops


It's a hot summer and many young women have taken to wearing flip-flops, which is a shame, as they can make even the prettiest feet look flat, tired and unattractive.

It's not the bareness of the feet that's the problem. In fact, completely bare feet would be preferable (though, obviously, not as preferable as feet in a pair of shoes by Christian Louboutin provocatively displaying a little toe cleavage and magically elevating even quite ordinary plates into the realm of the fabulous). 

It's the politics of wearing flip-flops (not to mention the childishly onomatopoeic name itself) that so depresses; the wearers have not only surrendered to the heat and to primitivism, but they have placed comfort and convenience before style and elegance. They have become casualties of casual culture (i.e. universal dishevelment).
       
When you wear flip-flops, you not only announce a lack of pride in your own appearance, but also in a long and noble tradition of European craftsmanship.
