    That's what I like about you, Z. You're always there to steer us back on topic.

    I just have to say, as the father of two girls, I would never let either of my daughters out of the house dressed like that.

    Amend that, I wouldn't even let them dress like that IN the house.

    Reading about stilettos, it reminded me of dangers of thin heel that I have heard of. So, I did a search on "danger of stilettos" and came up with the following.

    http://health.learninginfo.org/dangers-stilettos.htm
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z80h71oUoHo (Informative Video)
    http://www.5min.com/Video/The-Danger...Heel-326754522 (Informative Video), my feet, in hiking shoes, hurt just watching this.

    Given that I would vouch for a wider heel and one that is less than 3 inches. Also I prefer to have a softer heel, like, cork.

    So, these would be pretty good


    These would be fairly supportive


    As would these, though taking a half an inch off the bottom would be better


    These would be OK, though again taking a half inch off the bottom.

    And yes they are Louboutins, for those who were wondering.

    Though I prefer something more like this, with knee high or over the knee socks. They are still on my wish list though.

    My wife sometimes prefers legwarmers similar to those.

    Matt, you're a good dad. There is no doubt in my mind, your daughters will grow up with a proper sense of style.

    We have four daughters (three of whom are married) and three boys (one married.) We have taught our children to dress with style and not fad. The results, as far as the girls are concerned; three of them have always preferred pants and knee length dresses. The fourth does wear short skirts, but they aren't so short as to be tasteless.

    In days gone by, my wife's wardrobe included short skirts, however, she never wore anything that was too short or in bad taste. Come to think of it,...I wouldn't mind seeing her in one of those skirts again.
