@Cedward, I go out to “working” events with friends once in a while with no makeup, but only because they already know me. I think it is rude to strangers to present yourself in a careless attire or without fixing hair and makeup so that you look presentable. I now often wear completely flat shoes (and have never liked more than 3" difference between the ball and heel of my foot) but I can walk very gracefully in a 1-1/2 to 2" heel even though I’m a senior and it is more difficult to do so in flats (like walking in bare feet, and many slip around on the foot). I now make some of my own shoes so I can fit them better.
