Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Yeah buying shoes online is iffy. Especially heels bc they can really pinch you in all sorts of ways. Also for heels and sandals, the sizing is what it is - you can’t cheat with thinner or thicker socks.😅
In the case of open toe, open heel shoes, I agree with your coworker that there’s a chance they might fit. I’m a US 6 and have gotten away with 5.5 heels before, pretty much bc of the fact that there are no socks involved. My foot heel came right up to the edge of the shoe (I don’t love this look but oh well lol). If you really love the shoes and want to take the chance, I’d just buy the 10.5 and return it if it doesn’t fit.
Also if they hurt to wear, don’t bother. These heels were not made for you. It’s not worth it!! (Kinda sorta yelling at my younger self lol😆)
