Shopocalypse

Being a curious people-watcher sure beats looking at my iPhone when I am idle. The other day my eyes settled on a dapper man whose shoes provoked me to comment, "Those are beautiful!" This led to a lovely little chat about footwear, and how happy he was to find shoes that were both great-looking,  well-made and comfortable. He said while the shoes were pricey, he thinks of himself as an "apocalyptic shopper," explaining he makes thoughtful wardrobe purchases, as if each one is his last. Therefore, he insists on quality items. I made up the word "shopocalypse" on the spot, and he endorsed this term.  Hooray for people-watching! And hooray for insisting on quality.
