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.

Clarks does great dressy shoes in the $80-100 range like these, "Apple", "Bahama Beach", and "Malta"

As well as casual and cute stuff including the wallabees they invented and got famous for (slightly higher-priced it seems - more like $110-120). (This is the wallabee followed by Desert Trek. I don't care what people say! I think they're cute!) (All these come from the Casual category HERE (http://clarks.zappos.com/n/es?&d=722668891&page=1)) (All of the casual shoes come in black and most come in several other colours as well)
