OK, now you are bringing up horrid flashbacks of how a teacher at my middle school dressed. Not what a 7th grade girl needs to see. And oh god, then there was the art teacher with the zip jeans. Ahhhhrg!
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Camel toe is as much about a too-short rise than about too tight, I bet.
A too short rise is too tight, in my book. Tight is vertical as well as horizontal/circumferential.
I think I've known (although not remembered) the sides to which various men dressed, but it was knowledge gained by experience, not just looking across the restaurant.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Hell, I've been known to trip myself by getting the heels of my fleuvogs caught in the cuff of my pants....
I trip on thongs.*sigh* And I LOVE heels. Though not stilettos. Love the look, can't bear the pain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's fair.
Is now the time to bring up the Owen Wilson air bubble/schlong photo controversy?

Pointy-toe shoes + lace trim on skirt hems = potential gothy pratfalls. It's worse if, instead of pointy-toe shoes, you are wearing pointy-toe boots with lots of buckles. Then you can catch your toes OR the buckles in the lace.

NO.
It is never time.
If I had a job that required more time on my feet, I'd have to lose the heels. But I've got another pair of fluevogs picked out for that case.

I'd imagine. Did I mention I've put my heel through the hem of 3 skirts? Including two that were mid calf? Had I your wardrobe, I'd have to ...well, I probably wouldn't still be alive, victim of some grotesque velvet, lace and shoe disaster.

fluevogs
Seriously, someone needs to have a fluevog party, akin to an aerosole party.
Aerosole update: the new ones were fine for a day on my feet. In spite of the 2+ inch heel.
I have just solved my dilemma for how to write curriculum. I have a plan. And the plan, while not good or interesting, is easy to plan for. Esp. since I don't have to teach it!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Ah, that brings up a question I've been meaning to ask. My sister has a new job where she is on her feet all the time, but does need to look fairly professional. Any recommendations for shoes that will keep her upright but still have at least some heel and look nice - and for a reasonable price?
