I am one of those people that have never been able to wear flats.  I am a teacher and on my feet the majority of the day.  My Bluebird flats never developed blisters upon first wear and I never screamed in pain by the end of the day.  My arches appreciate the oh so tiny heel.

This shoe looks great with my long skirts.  I purchased these in red and my students are always asking me to click my heels together in search of Kansas :)
