Eugh, I am suffering shoe envy so badly right now.
Me & my hideous pair of ankle boots.
What I wouldn't give to wear normal school shoes D:
It's annoying. People laugh.

Ugh, I hate that shoes wear my skin out. It's getting to the point that certain clothing does too. Sheesh. What is my EDS coming too!?

I can't walk in heels at all. I don't have any balance and I can't support myself. I hate it because I'm quite short anyway and all my friends are taller than me. They can all wear heels which makes them taller too.

Well, I suggest buying cute flats. Even if you can't wear heels it's no big deal. :P

You can still be fashionable, etc wearing something more safe & comfortable.

So much shoe envy! But I wear US women's 13, so it's even worse. I go to the store, look at the racks and racks of cute normal-sized flats, look at the single shelf of nun shoes in my size, and go home. (On the up side, Nordstrom Rack has my lifelong support, as they carry pretty shoes in my size.) Most shoes also give me blisters. I can't wear many heels either. I have a pair of shoes I used to wear clubbing (despite the fact that I couldn't walk in them), and I wore the bottoms out so unevenly I stopped being able to wear them. I have high arches, so my feet/ankles overextend in the opposite direction from normal EDSers. It still stinks. However, I find that if you have a classic, simple pair of black shoes, you can make a fashion statement with socks/tights, and look like you intentionally wore the plain shoes to avoid clashing with your legwear.
