You know, I have to disagree with some of this. I find that most women do not get all dolled up for men as much as they do for other women. Something in most (butt not all, CYA) of these women look at other women as competition for some reason.
The reason I say this is that most of the stylish shoes, dresses, and so forth have nothing to do with what men like. In fact, most men think women look best in a minimal amount of clothing.
