Size 5s disappearing!

I first read about it at Alterations Needed, another petite blog. While I understand that there aren't many women who wear a 5, and that it's a "waste of money" for companies to keep making them, my question to these companies is this: What are size 5 women supposed to wear? I'm sorry, but you can't expect us to go to the kids' section to purchase dress shoes if we want to look like adults (not to mention being INSULTING...I don't think people truly "get it"). I've heard women say that there are girls' shoes who have heels, etc, etc, but these shoes are:

a) Lower-heeled than shoes for adults

b) Usually thicker-heeled - no stilletos for little girls, of course

c) Hard to find! I think I've only seen this at Nine West and perhaps a couple of other places.

We already have trouble being taken seriously in corporate/business situations. If our shoes look like little kids', wouldn't that make it worse?

Ryan Fit Pant is Back @ Banana

The Ryan fit pant, which fits a slimmer figure, is back for the holiday season. However, there's a catch. The smallest size is a 0P, according to the charts! It's also only available in one style.

If you've tried this style, tell Shorty Stories what you think!
