The all-around shoe

One pair of shoes can get you through the weekend. Your best bet is black sport shoes; keep them simple and sleek, like these suede sneakers by Hussein Chalayan for Puma $175 at neimanmarcus.com. Tip: Don’t take two pair of shoes, take two pair of laces. Dress ’em up with black laces or, for a more sporty look, change the laces to white.
