**DanSmith92** might be the weirdest poster ever. My sisters and I are 5’2", 5’10" and 5’5" and we all wear size 8. Female height and shoe size is usually closely correlated so doctors have remarked on my tall sister’s tiny feet, and people mention how big my short sister’s and I feet are (I am average height and shoe size but the rest of me is so tiny they look big). ---
