Seconded. In particular if anyone has recommendations for comfortable plain black heels or heeled boots of medium-low height (2-3 inches), please share! I have flat feet and have been looking for un-painful heels my whole life.

I don't have flat feet myself, so I don't know what the requirements for that are. I've had good luck with Clark's, but I usually only wear a 1-1.5 inch heel. (My work shoes are Clark's bendables from a previous season.) Does this fit your requirements?

This one is really close to my ideal style (though a bit taller/thinner heeled). Thanks for the rec!

This probably isn't the best place to ask-- the proportion of women is fairly low.

Possibly useful: Orthotics for high heels

Running with the Whole Body-- I did the exercise about understanding the connection between hip movement and feet a couple of times, and had arches for a while.

I did the exercise for understanding the connection between hips and turning feet side to side a couple of times, and had arches for a while. http://www.amazon.com/Running-Whole-Body-30-Day-Program/dp/1556432267/ref=pd_sim_sbs_b_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=05VZBT6K13PSF9JNNDHZ
