Well, if they're flats, then they could be even slicker! X3 Yeah, don't like dress shoes. I like nice, comfy stuff for my feet. Around the house, I prefer to wear zori. But that's mostly because the floor is dirty with who-knows-what.
Well, I think that you look fine, but there's nothing that can be done about a person's self-standards except by the person themselves. I can understand not being satisfied, since I'm not satisfied with myself either. XD And the person that you remind me of also isn't satisfied. Maybe I can find a picture of her to show you... It's not really a dead ringer, but there are similarities aplenty. Just remember that we take you as you are, not how we want you to be. At least, I think I can speak for everyone... ^o^;
