Not a girl....but i know a lot who are in the business.

Johnston & Murphy.

They make cute professional womens shoes that are relatively comfy and wear well.

This makes me miss Payless so much. When I was running around car lots, they had a brand of heels called Comfort Plus and those things were as comfy as Nikes. I put new tips like 3x on each pair even though they were probably only like $30 max. And I'd keep flats as well to go run fast or if I didn't have a client. Worth seeing if that brand is still around under a different name or something if you want heels. Sperrys and Grasshopper flats and boat style shoes are always cute and comfy and business casual. Not worth spending over $75 on shoes for a carlot, they get worn out so fast. If you Are going to spend money, Cole Haan for women. Another girly tip, so much NYX makeup setting spray.

Aldo Pillow walk are similar but for me boots have always been the safest shoe. Anything with rubber block heel so I’m not clicking around is great, specifically love Dr. Scholls boots. Urban decay setting spray used to be my savior setting spray before they changed the formula

Most gals i've seen wear docs or similar around here. I do too. Tennis shoes just wear out too fast.

Boot sole Oxford, slacks, button down or polo. Thats the car sales uniform regardless of gender.. Unfortunately less and less companies are making them.

Ahh I was going to make a suggestion until I saw you were female. I will say, high heels look the best but flats are not unprofessional when you are standing for 10 hours
