  It was the day after Labor Day and although I haven’t lived in Virginia for many years, the southern girl edict still haunted me: Do not wear white after Labor Day.
  The end of summer break from school always began the day after the holiday so it was a good excuse to get a new pair of shoes in a fall color. Or at least to polish up your old ones.
