[quote=Anonymous]We are a no-shoes house as well. We all (including our au pair) take off our shoes and leave them in our front hall closet - we all walk around barefoot or with socks. I love it! Far less dirt and grime. We don't have pets. Our close friends and family always take off their shoes before coming into our home out of habit - we never have to ask. With not-so-close friends and guests, I don't say anything - no need to make an issue out of it. If they notice and ask whether they should take off their shoes, I just tell them to do whatever they feel comfortable doing. When we have dinner parties/cocktail parties, most people keep their shoes on and I don't mind. It is a party and I can understand why people would feel "less dressed" if they do not have their heels on. We always clean up after a party and it is generally limited to our main floor (hardwood floors). I am more concerned with guests feeling comfortable. [/quote]
