A year ago I would have said 6inches, but since I started heeling in public and met my girlfriend who can wear 7 inch stilettos all day I have been practicing. A lot Now I can wear 7 inch stilettos, but not a whole day. But I can stand in them for more then an hour. But usually I wear 5½-6 inches and can walk in them all day.

Oh wow! The model is STUNNING (as usual), the outfit is GREAT and the shoes.... Im lost for words! They are faboulous! I dont like platforms, but these look great! Imagine those without the platform... Yummi! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Pata! As always, you share great knowledge in ultra high and ballet heels.

the quality is ok. However you might have to correct the ballet shoe's heel length. Cant recommend their 18cm pumps & boots, they aren't true to size - for example I'm normally wearing EUR 46. I ordered the 18cm boots from them and a size 42/43 might fit. but they weren'r comfortable and the toe box is kinda bent upwards. looks disgusting.

Hi again, I have a little more time now

What is the problem with the heel on the ballet? Are they to high or low?

How did you fix them?

Are the sizes on the pumps way off the scale? If I normally wear size EUR 45, what should I buy from them? Size EUR 43? Sounds really small...

What was wrong in them to make them uncomfortable? To narrow, to steep or just plain wrong?

Do you have any pictures of your shoes? The pics on the site kinda suck... Nice models but I want to see what I plan to buy...

Ok, thanks for the input!

Thats true Just wondering if anyone has bought anything from them before?

Hi!

Has anyone bought ballet heels from kassipeya.de?

I saw that they sell a pair of knee high ballet boots for 40 euro, normally they cost 70 euro.

http://www.kassiopeya.de/products/Ballett-High-Heels/Ballet-High-Heels-Stiefel-Boots.html

I'm thinking of buying a pair, Im sure that the quality is ... well, not the best

But are they good enough to stand and walk a little in? They will probably not survive a marathon, but neither will my feet

Or have anyone bought other shoes from them?

They have other shoes as well, pumps with 18cm heels and a wide ankle strap for instance http://www.kassiopeya.de/products/Pumps-und-Sandalen/High-Heels-Pumps-schwarz-18-cm-hoch.html

I have interviewed serveral people (mostly female) for several positions. I have never let their apperance influence my decision. ...but yes, I have seen several strikingly beautiful young women. With high heels and without. One of the best had a skirt that reached about halfways down her thighs, black stockings (I saw her garter as well one time just before the intervue) and 4½-5 inch pumps. Without platau... In addition to being very beautiful she was very smart and actually got the job. She wore heels everyday Worked with her for 1½ years, great time

Awtucs: triss is a wonderful thing when you win The golden would have been nice if they fit... These are HIGH heels, I have a couple of pumps with 4½inch heels as well, they are somewhere deeeeeep down in my closet

Back again, been way to busy walking in my new shoes

The first heels I tried was the boots and that was love at the first step! They fit PERFECTLY! And I could walk in them from the start

After about an hour walking around the apartment I tried the sandals, they fit as well. Not as perfect as the boots, but they were so good that I would have bought them in a store.

Now I was feeling like a kid at christmas eve so after another half hour it was time for something else!

It was time to go golden Unfortunatly they did not fit as well, so after about 2-3 minuter I took them off. Tried them again a couple of days later but no... They are somewhere in a second hand shop now I think, put them in a big bin with some other clothes for charity.

I tried the mules instead (with all thumbs, fingers and toes crossed!!) - and they fit! A lot harder to walk in then the boots or sandals, but quite walkable (as long as I didn't try to walk to fast...)

Actually I'm wearing them now

That was all for the first day, I placed the pink pumps next to my bed and went to sleep.

The next morging I woke up and slipped on the pinks and walked around in my apartment. These were just for fun and I seriously doubt that I will ever wear them outside my apartment. But they are fun

After a loooooooong day at work I came home to find a lovely pair of red peep toe pumps waiting for me right inside my door. I slipped them on and just smiled as I walked around my apartment and a 15 minute walk outside (that was COLD!).

I saved my favourite for last, the black pumpd with red heels. I gave them a whole day (saturday) at home. They fit just as perfect as the boots.

Since then I have walked a looooong time in them, both at home and other places. Not outside, they are to nice for that

The boots are worn outside now, when I get inside I have plenty of other shoes to wear!

jwhite44: Nope, I have never worn 7" heels before. 6.3" is not a problem, have walked (outside, both in public and on rocky ground) for many, many hours. I also have a pair of 6.6" heels, but I have not worn those as much. Partly since they dont fit as well... My little toes hurt like h*ll after a while, they are a little small. But the heel height is not a problem. I can walk up and down stairs in both of them. Actually its only one pair thats really 7 inches, the pink pumps. The other are just short of 7 inches. The black pumps with red heels are 6.9 inches. Bubba136: nope, not this time. This was her day as a thank you for... a lot of things. So I went in a plain suit with "normal" mens shoes. We have been to dinner when we both wore high heels tho, 5" for me and 6" for her. ilovetights: I wanted a pair of mules with very high heels and I liked them. I dont think I will wear them outside of my home tho. But the others will! Platforms is not my cup of tea, a few shoes looks good on a few people. But most just look.... Wrong. spikesmike: Everyone must have at least one pair of golden shoes Thats what she told me and I have to agree... Dont think that I will use them much, I like shoes with atleast 5" heels. Preferably 6" or higher. I really hope that I can walk in them! I dont want them to stand on a shelf, that would be a huge waste! If I have problems with them, I will practice until I master them! I wear size 45 in high heels, US 13(womens sizes), UK 12

Not a big fan of platform either. If I wear 7 inch heels, I should wear 7inch, not 5 inches... I think that I will cheat and start with the boots

I can walk in 6-6½ inch heels without problems now so I dont think that it will be any problems

...ordered a LOT of shoes of course!

I ordered them from fuss shoe store in Germany, a friend of mine ordered her last pair of pumps from them and she liked them so I'll try them as well.

First I need something to wear around the apartment, so the first pair is a pair of red mules with 17(!!!!!)cm heels. 105€

Then I need something to wear outside, so the next pair is a pair of black ankle boots with red sole, 17cm stiletto heels and an inside zipper, 200€

http://postimage.org/image/1la56b150/

Every wardrobe needs a pair of sandals, so the next item is a pair of black sandals with 17cm red stiletto heels and red wristband, 130€

http://postimage.org/image/1gwnwr284/

Of course I also need the most classic pumps, black pumps with 17.5cm red stiletto heels, 130€

http://postimage.org/image/1laf3j43o/

Since I dont have a pair of peep toe pumps any more, I have to fix that now. Red peep toe, red sole and 17cm black stiletto heels, 125€

http://postimage.org/image/1lagr2glg/

A tribute to the 80:s, pink pumps with 18(!!!)cm stiletto heels, 90€

http://postimage.org/image/1laielt38/

I have always wanted gold heels... Sandals with 14cm heels, 95€

http://postimage.org/image/1lalpoi2s/

plus 23€ in shipping set me back 898€ (out of the 1043€ I won), a very nice dinner with a special friend took care of that (and a little more). She wore a pair of stunning black pumps with 17cm thin stiletto heels and a short skirt with matching black nylons with back seam.

That was 2.61€ *very* well spent!

As you can see I am determined to learn how to walk pretty in 7 inch heels

Now all I have to do is wait and wait and...

Hi, from another Swede, very new @ the forum!

Just wanted to say that it was actually your post (about a dream come true) that made me join

Take care!

/A from Gothenburg

And I have found my next pair of heels, black patent leather with 6.5" stiletto heels. All I have to do now is to find them in my size...

It was kinda of a dream come true Consider that 6 months ago I was only wearing high heels alone in my apartment... And now I wear them outside, lots and lots

My life just keeps getting better and better! A girl friend (as in female friend, not partner) visited me and happend to open the wardrobe where I keep my high heels, skirts, stayups and stuff. At first she was quiet but then she asked me to model them for her. Which I did of course, what was I to do? She was amazed that I could walk in 6 inch stilettos and one thing led to antoher and we went out that evening to a club. We were both 6 inch heels, we had a fantastic night!

Tack M-a och Pernilla The bad thing about walking on those rocks was that the tip of the heel broke on one heel, plastic... I had them fixed and replaced them with metal, they sound soooo much better now Mod: a better translation would be: Really nice shoes! I know that it's not easy to walk in those kind of shoes outdoor, but you can do it with practice

Knobby rocks are *not* easy to walk on in six inch stiletto heels. Especially not 5 minutes after the picture was taken when the rain was POURING down! It killed my camera, it did not like to get wet I have no luck with cameras! But it was fun! I was wearing a short skirt, nylons and my new pumps that are a little darker then my first red pair. You should have seen the look on the faces of the couple in the mid-50's that I met back to my car

Hi from another swede here! What part in Sweden are you from? I am from the very south, just outside Malmö.

Oh, and I kind of started the same way you did, girly from waist and down and manly on top. It was good fun!

Meat

Thanks Daniel! I have been out and about a little more, still no heeling in the neighbourhood... But I have made three trips where I brought some heels, the same wedges as above, a pair of white pumps(!) with 12cm stiletto heels with rubber tips and rough rubber under the sole. Not slippery at all, even on wet plastic And finally a pair of ankle boots in white/grey with 15cm heels and 1cm platform. Next time I will wear my black pumps with ankle strap and 15cm stiletto heels with steel tip. Without platform

Thanks DanielP!

Yes, I had LOTS of fun

AND!! It gave me the courage I needed to start heeling a little, today I was in another town about 2hours drive from here, I brought a pair of high heeled wedge sneakers, similar to these: http://theshoegoddess.com/2008/01/lamb-shoes-denver-wedge-sneakers.html

Mine are all black and dont have a platform, heel height is about 12cm and they have a rubber sole. I wore shorts and black socks and walked in public for the first time (the costume party excluded). Noone commented on them or me.

It was GREAT! Next time Im going to wear pumps

Thank you! Im getting bolder now as well, I wore them outside yesterday when I got home from a late shift at work. They were standing right inside my door and I put them on and took a walk, didnt meet anyone and walked for about 20 minutes. Its much easier walking uphill then downhill in very high heels Walked a little under 3km according to the map. They fit even better now that I have walked ... a lot! in them. Got to get back there and buy more shoes

I wore high heels in public!!!! Last weekend I was invited to a huge costume party, the theme was "Konstraster" (contrasts, opposits, the-other-way-around, not really sure who to translate it... Think: black-white, small-huge). Anyway, I thought that this might be a great opportunity to wear my beloved high heels in public. So I took my red heels above, a pair of black stayups, a short red mini skirt and on my upper body I wore a working t-shirt (the kind construction workers wear), a utility belt with tools (hammer, knife, nails etc) and a hard hat (the kind you wear on a construction site). Ladylike down under and manly on top I actually won the price for best outfit And it was a big party, well over 100 people were there. The best part was that I got to wear my heels outside for 7½ hours on all kinds of terrain, asphalt, cobblestones (hate them!), grass (that was tough!), gravel, stone floor, wooden floor. I got a few questions from the ladies where I bought them, they loved them I had the best night ever!!! The only bad thing was that I learnt that if you place your camera in a pocket and bend down to pick up your keys when you drop them, the camera will fall out of your pocket, hit the edge of a stone and fall into water. Broke it completely But it was still worth it!
