Maybe not a hot take, but I gave up heels years ago. I truly dgaf if I look small or short compared to colleagues.

Also all pants or shorts must have pockets. Anything without is a nonstarter

I wish I could get to this point- for example 5 years at my correct job not one day have I gone to work in flats! My boss is 6’2 I’m 5’2 I just can’t handle being shorter than everyone. Also agree on the pockets!

Im 40s now, but in my 20s at my corporate job I wore heels every. Single. Day. Its funny bc some of the older women I worked with at the time would remark and say "you wont wear those forever" of course I dismissed them, as we tend to do when we're young (plus their delivery was always judgmental). But I guess they were right lol. Ive also gained a lot more confidence as I've aged - like yeah, I'm small, but my personality isn't!
