Actually, I can get by with two. The sandals are for good weather and the sneakers are for bad weather. I may have more trouble in the USA, which apparently has a dress code. In that case, my future employers will have to choose between my Whup Ass Boots (black with all sorts of unnecessary buckles and straps all over them) and my I Don't Have To Pretend To Be Shorter Than My Boyfriend Anymore boots, which are just completely ridiculous, make me about six feet tall, and look like I should be wearing a caped superhero outfit to go with them.
