I have to say.. I really like Claire's boots in this comic. I like all of her outfit.. except I would not wear that top with at skirt. It seems to unbalanced to me, in color and 'weight'. It's a light, summery sort of top, and a heavier, fall sort of skirt/tights/boots combination. But that's really just my opinion. :)
In regards to heels... I actually like them. And I'm unusual in the fact that I've never had any real problem walking in them. The only ones I have had problem with are my pirate costume boots with the tall, thin heels and uneven surfaces.... However I almost never wear heels. Part of it is that at 5'10" I already loom over many women and some men, so adding another four inches just makes me feel like I stand out even more than usual. As I put it.. Heels make me feel like a 'Trannysaurus Rex'. :) The other side to that of course is that I have very large feet (size 13), so just finding shoes in my size that I can afford can be difficult enough. Finding cute shoes that I like is even harder.

I'm thinking it's all part of the same arc. And I'd include the blue dress she wore at the wedding. Possibly even the frilly princess dress she tried on, even though I thought it was hideous - she clearly liked it. It's all part of her deciding she likes who she is and how she looks now.
I had a kind-of-similar revelation at about the same age as Claire, while I trying on a tux for a friend's wedding. I looked in a mirror and thought, "Goddamn! I look good in this!"

By the bye: I think Jeph is using a new technique to make his word balloons. Not sure I care for the effect, as it detracts from the dialogue.

This is sort of 2539 in reverse. This time it is Claire who rushes in where Emily fears to thread.
Emperor Norton:
I think high heels are attractive, and women can wear them if they want, but I'd prefer people wear things that are comfortable if they are going to be on their feet all day. Basically, I'd rather someone save their feet and my ears about how much their feet hurt than look marginally better.
This might be also why I'm jeans/shorts, t-shirts, no shoes/vibrams in almost every day of my life. Fuck looking good for other people, I'm going to be COMFORTABLE.
