Somebody wrote about this the other day, this staple of 12 cm heels seems to be on its last legs. No pun intended. I have never taken the opportunity to buy from them, but know a couple of people who have. If they are indeed going belly-up, it's a shame.

Yes, their website doesn't look very healthy. The homepage is all right but there's nothing if you try to check out any styles. Hopefully it's just a glitch, but it doesn't look good or bode well. They made nice boots, I know that.

The only reason that I sort of care is because, well, I'm going to need some higher heels. As you know, I have quite a number of heels in the 11 cm range, but only one pair that is really wearable in public that is 12 cm, and I think that pair is kind of ugly, mainly because of the design of the toe. Also, if I wear anything but skinny jeans, it looks like I have no feet.

At any rate, it looks like I have two remaining options: Fuss Schuhe and this outfit called the Highest Heels that keeps showing up on my Instagram feed. Or the designer route, but I don't really want to pay that kind of money. I'm willing to pay a couple hundred bucks for the right shoes, but not a thousand. For that kind of money, I'll buy another obscure musical instrument. Did I ever show you my early 20th century Conn cornet?
