shoe consultation shopping for OTHER people

I would love to set up a free Personal Shoe Shopper thingy. I mean, I'm always seeing people in the wrong shoes and knowing where they could find the right ones, because one of my hobbies is obsessively checking the new shoe offerings by brands and in boutiques (my favourites are UK shops Shuh and Treds, and also Office, but only for browsing, because their shipping prices are so exorbitant I would never actually consider paying them). So like, people could say, "Cim, I need a comfortable but appropriate business casual shoe that I can jog in!" or "Cim, what in the world should I wear to a wedding next summer?" or "Cim, I need a pair of shoes combining smartness, preferably with a low heel, and comfort." And then I would solve their problems! It's nice to dream. There just aren't enough shoe-buying tasks in my OWN life to satisfy me.

\0/ Thank you in advance!
Oh, um, just to be awkward, mjs and court shoes are often problematic for me because the edge cuts across my big toe joint. Weird but painful.

Oh yeah. Mine are kind of big too! Hmmmm. The flickr says she's wearing Dansko clogs, but evidently not the kind that cover the whole foot. I will keep this in mind.
