Heels & Sandals
This is the dressed half of the store, though very little of it is impractical. Pumps lead the group, cut with pointed toes, snipped toes and cap toes, and finished with covered heels, block heels and kitten heels. Sandals follow: slides with crossover straps, strappy pairs fastened with adjustable buckles, and espadrille wedges built for the months when a closed shoe stops being an option. Mules and low heels fill the gap, along with flats that keep a sharp toe and give up the height.
Heel heights are deliberately spread. There are shoes here that lift barely at all and shoes that lift enough to change a posture, which means the group can be shopped by how long you plan to stand rather than by how formal the evening is. Block heels and wedges carry weight across a wider base; covered heels keep a tall shoe reading as one clean object from ankle to floor.
Suede, nappa and smooth leather do most of the work, with metallic finishes and woven leather details appearing where a shoe needs a focal point. Neutral colours dominate on purpose: black, espresso, taupe, champagne and the paler naturals are the ones that keep working after the outfit they were bought for has been retired.
