i'm still trying to get through my ex's "memoir". i'm getting near the end and there have been countless allusions to blonds and boobs and tight white jeans. but i had to actually put the book down when i came upon: Understated Sandals. as usual, some "blond bombshell" (now that's an original term) is "checking him out" at his father's "opening" of photographs of non-jewish standing in as Shekinah, women wearing nothing but white gauze and Marquis de Sade amounts of strappy teffilin...and as he wanders around at this opening without a sense of humor and the usual dose of desperation...he just KNOWS the "blond" wants him.....and then, pretty much nothing happens....but this one is wearing Understated sandals. and it made me wonder what ARE understated sandals? and what are Overstated Sandals? i've always considered myself a fashion buff but i never thought to categorize sandals in terms of under or over statements. are understated sandals leather flips flops? Miu Mius without the rhinestones? Marc Jacobs without he bows? Berkenstocks just the way they come? nah, they wouldn't be Birkenstocks...at least not at a Michael's restaurant opening of Leonard Nimoys pix of naked women wrapped in teffilin.
Understated sandals. maybe they're black suede Barneys Co-Op.
God, this is a breakthru memoir. Forget the so-called Recovery part,
its given me a whole new way of looking at sandals.
