I hate having small feet, and being small in general...
My shoe size is a 4. It is so incredibly hard for me to find affordable shoes that are in my size. I am also not one of those girls that likes to spend a lot of money on shoes. I wish I could go to places like Target or Payless and pick out a cute pair of shoes, but I can't because the smallest size these and most other places carry are a 5.5. I know online stores like Nordstrom and Zappos carry my size, but they are so freaking expensive! I guess I am doomed for a life of Old Navy kids flip flops, and Nike sneakers (Nike runs small so their size 5's fit me perfect).
Also, while I am on the subject of being small, why do stores insist on putting the small sizes on the top shelf, and the large sizes on the bottom shelf? I went the the mall yesterday and two of the stores I went into had the xs's on the very top shelf (that I wouldn't have even been able to reach if they gave me a step stool), and the larges were on the bottom. Seriously?
btw I am 4'10 inches and 90 lbs and only dream of being able to wear stilettos.

I always comment on that about the shoes, too. Usually people with larger shoe size are taller, too.
Do you have a nordstrom rack near you? Ours carrys shoes discounted from nordstrom prices from size 4 to 13.
I don't think I've ever been a size 0 hahaha
When I was thinner, I would also buy casual clothes in the kids department, because the skirts and pants in a size 14 kids were always the right length.
Chin up! It could be worse-you could be short and smalbut with a grown up size pot belly like me
