How about teaching the 5 year old that wearing adult shoes is *fun* not sexy or painful?
My toddler neice LOVES to watch mommy (or me) put on makeup. I invited her over to me, and took a (clean) powder brush and put "magic fairy dust" on her cheeks and forehead. Then I told her how pretty she was. She was dancing all around it was so cute.
5 year olds are like little sponges. Maybe tell her that it's okay to wear fun shoes sometimes, but not all the time. Tell her that they are kind of like halloween, where big girls get to dress up pretty for special occasions.
just some ideas.
(she must have been so cute in the high heels!)
