An currently 12 weeks pregnant (dc2), and am thinking that as the weeks go by, I won't want to be wearing heels at work. So I've been looking around for some smart, black flats (probably ballet style), but have had no luck. One of my problems is that my big toe joint on one foot is rather large (bunion, but toe not bent over iyswim), and I find that a lot of ballet flats are cut too low to be comfortable. I'd also prefer something with a bit of cushioning underfoot. Don't mind paying a bit more if they'll be worth the investment.
