What are the period-appropriate shoes for a shirtwaist (scroll down) dress?
You can't go wrong with pumps, though I imagine a strappy sandal would also work, in the summer.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

That which does not kill you should RUN

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I also enjoy a peep-toe shoe, even though they were ruined for me when a little girl looked at my feet in horror: "You only have one toe?!?!?!"

Cracking up over here.
I am biased against ballet flats, but that's because they emphasize the boatness of my feet. But other than that, what they said.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

How cute!
I'm wearing character shoes right now. I have ballet flats too. I can do that. Straight up pumps, I totally lack. Hmm.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I need ballet flats.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Pumps with a rounded toe, peep toe are good-- a t-stap if you want to go overboard.

Oh! Have those too, waiting to be repaired. Gotta get that taken care of.

I tried to buy ballet flats, but I think my feet are too naturally pointy for them to work really well. Hence only being able to see my big toe through the peep-toe shoes.

In non-shoe related stuff, I saw this really disturbing profile of the guy who started and runs the "Girls Gone Wild" video company in a bunch of blogs today. Very unsettling.
