[quote=Anonymous]Because the middle school dances and bar/bat mitzvahs all have fancy dresses paired with sneakers, my 13 year old expects to wear high top Converse to a family member's "black tie suggested" wedding. Anyone have other suggestions that can work for a kid who has flat feet and weak ankles? All my suggestions have been vetoed as old fashioned and uncomfortable. Unfortunately a recent growth spurt means her long formal dress no longer hides her feet. Her second choice suggestion is combat boots. She really does benefit from the ankle support, which is hard to find in formal shoes. If she were younger, I might give her a pass with immaculate sneakers. Now almost my height and reading adult from across the room, I feel like she should probably wear something nicer for at least the wedding and then maybe change at the reception. Heck, brides do that. Unfortunately this bride is very much not the type to do that herself.[/quote]
