Duncan | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:09 pm     .....and Marcellas is supposed to be a model/fashion genious?
 |
Missy2 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:23 pm     I know and he's a "stylist"! I think its because he says that he has ugly feet. |
Ark | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:34 pm     Hey!!! I have on socks and flip flops as I speak or type or whatever. |
Tisha90029 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:39 pm     Ummmmmmmmmmmm...........I think it's high fashion in Germany or something. |
Chiparock | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:40 pm     Special socks, called "Tabi," are worn with flip-flop type sandals by Japanese women, especially geishas. The socks are like foot mittens: there is the big-toe portion and the portion for the rest of the toes. I don't know if Marcellas' socks are tabi; I would guess they are hard to find in this country. Does Marcellas secretly want to be a geisha??!! Roddy, look out! |
Earthmother | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:42 pm     If it's Summer(dammit I paid good money for these sandles and I'm gonna wear them) and it's cold (65 here today) I feel compelled to wear my sandles with socks. lol |
Earthmother | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:44 pm     gosh I can't believe I spelled sandals wrong twice..must have been thinkin' about candles.. |
Abby7 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:55 pm     this is his home for now (i'm in socks right now and I live in Los Angeles!)...so he's being comfortable. so what if a few million are watching? lol |
Abby7 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 06:56 pm     it's been rather cool in la this week. sun out today but the night's get chilly. (but we can still go swimming at night) |
Catfat | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 07:09 pm     I live near Seattle and we wear socks with our Birkenstock sandals all year around. Wool in the winter and cotton in the summer, and perfect with our all-black outfits, which we will wear until something darker comes along. |
Booomhowser | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 07:16 pm     I notices Marc in sock and sandals also, looked closely and saw the socks where half socks (only up to ankles) maybe they where "tabi socks". Wonders if they have a space for the big toe. And yes, I found it odd Marcellus being a "stylist" would wear socks and sandals. Especially on the "live show" night. Weird. Would it make more sense to wear colored socks and sandals? |
Molz | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 07:35 pm     iwish i had socks like that. i love my flip-flops,and when it's chilly..i love my socks. |
Curlyq | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 08:17 pm     I'm just wondering if Roddy is the only one who brought shoes with him that don't stay on by toe-power. It seems like they only have thong sandals to wear, and yet they were cracking on Sheryl Crow's dress shoes. Ah, well. Maybe I just don't know fashion anymore. |
Wcv63 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 08:21 pm     Thongs of all kinds are in this year...wearing thongs with socks is something I've seen a lot especially in the celeb crowd. Not that I notice the celeb crowd. Really!!! |
Snee | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 10:00 pm     catfat, i was just going to post about birks and socks! grab a starbuck's and you're set! |
Ellenkats | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 10:13 pm     I wear socks with Birki sandals in winter -- but he was wearing them with flipflops. I thought it looked funny. This isn't first time he's worn them though, he's done it several times before in house. My question is, why white socks with black flipflops? At least black socks wouldn't have been so obvious. (Okay, I admit it, I do match socks to my birkis -- lol) |
Catfat | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 10:18 pm     Maybe he is wearing white socks with black flip-flops because it so awful it is 'in'. I like Marcellas, though. His fake-dive onto the oily slip and slide made me laugh out loud. |
Chyang | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 09:47 am     Like Chiparock said, "Tabi" is the dressy way to wear with thong sandals. But those sandals as formal wear are not the cheap rubber kind either, they should be wooden with two pieces of hills.... "Tabis" are usually white and not the same material with your everyday white socks. They are expensive(as all things traditional) and hard to locate here(mali order only), I just make do with reg. sports socks or pads like Marc. does all the time, not good for socks(abnormal wear & tear) but kind to my toes. All that said, I'm not sure Marc. knows or cares though. |
Wiseolowl | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 10:20 am     I'm sure out of it. I don't know about Tabis , flipflops or Birkenheads. All I know is you don't wear black socks with brown shoes and vice versa. When my kids ask about a present I say socks and if they go to some discount place to buy them that's OK with me. The cheaper the better because nobody darns them anymore. 30 years ago when I got married my wife said when there's a hole in them you throw them out - took me a while to accept that but guess that's progress. |
Cmc209 | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 10:29 am     Hmm... just flipping through the posts and then I saw the comment about wearing socks with flip-flops - I can handle socks with sandals or other footwear, but flip-flops? How the heck does he get his toe in a flip flop with a sock on (unless he has special toe socks). Sorry Mar, but this time you're the butt of jokes (I remember the comment he made about Lori wearing her jean short overalls!). |
Marymc | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 10:42 am     when i moved to california from NY i was AMAZED at people wearing sox with sandals. in NY it was NOT done and here it's everywhere. same with wearing UGGS with shorts.... |
Wyndie | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 11:04 am     Marymc, what are UGGS? |
Cmc209 | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 11:06 am     aren't they sheepskin boots or something? |
Maesin | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 11:57 am     I wear socks with sandals. I wear boots with skirts, but not shorts. Everyone blames it on my Seattle upbringing (I am no longer there). Right now it's over 100 outside, I have a/c on in the house and am wearing sweats. I am sure there are many that think I need serious help for this fashion problem I have. That's okay though, because "I am good enough, I am smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me!" LOL.  |
