A reader wrote in to the Times Style section to ask, “How do you deal with visits to ‘shoeless’ homes? It’s often a surprise, so you can’t plan ahead with cute socks or by making sure you’ve recently had a pedicure.”
Before you read the advice a Style critic offers, what would you say? Is yours a “shoeless” home in which family and friends are asked to remove their footwear, or do you keep your shoes on inside the house? What is your reasoning for that preference?
Tell us in the comments, and then read the related article to see how the Style critic answered.
