Anyone ever work for or heard of working for ProQuest?
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

I can ask around, Aims. A coworker used to work for Ebsco, a competitor of theirs. We subscribe to a LOT of ProQuest products.
I think that in many/most workplaces, both peep toes and patent leather are now acceptable. Maybe not *red* patent leather. My workplace, we're all in sensible shoes, of course. There's one woman who wears pin heels, but she used to work for a corporation.

not your mom's socks.
I still like kitten heels the best. not so far to fall.
but overall, heels, peeps. etc. bring it. unless I can wear tevas. Still haven't found the right scene for my patent-leather manolos that someone was brilliant enough to save for me.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I would totally wear those shoes to work (if I could get over the patent thing). Of course, I'm currently wearing my 20-eyelet Docs right now, so perhaps I'm not the best judge.
On Sunday, I got the most awesome pair of shoes EVAR. Red satin, peep toe, 3.5 inch skinny heels, with a small satin rose on the top of the vamp. GORGEOUS. I look like I should be in Cuba in these shoes.
Of course, where I'm going to wear them is anyone's question....
edit: here they are!! [link]

I'm starting to get excited about Cairo. For one thing, I get to buy new clothes! Hooray! And I need to start considering whether I can pull off the Fay hat look. I hear hats are a good idea, I've just never been very comfortable in them.

Toddson, sadly, no Prom for me. Work interfered, and then it didn't, but by then I had already made other plans, and GAH.

I'd wear those shoes to work, if I wore heels to work. Maybe this summer I'll start hauling a pair with me. I now own about three cute pairs of heels. Won't be wearing the patent platforms, though.
Right now, I'm wearing battered steel-toed Mary Jane Docs.

Hm. Just realized I'll have to start looking for traveling shoes. Closed-toed, probably. All of Travelsmith's seem to be flats, and I like at least a little bit of heel!
