dear friend and investment mom extraordinaire, kristin rolfes hall writes in on, you guessed it, mandals:

“I appreciate a man who wears sandals. To me, it says a lot about his personality. It is laid back and relaxed. I particularly like a nice pair of leather sandals with light summer slacks and a tropical shirt… I believe mandals are appropriate for a lunch date in the City, a boat ride up the connecticut river, or even dinner at the Palm in East Hampton. Bottom line: more men should kick

off their docksiders and don and pair of mandals. . .”
