sarah,
i loooooooooove those congrats!!!


nyni,
try the store on motcomb street or the shop in shop at harvey nichols which is just around the corner from motcomb street.
lastly since you are in the knightsbridge area have a look at the SHoe Boudoir in harrods. they have a CL section/boudoir whith sometimes a good selection.

if all the above fails, head down to Oxford Street to SELFRIDGES. the shoe floor has some more Louboutins

That Minibout Zep 942 has a very cute peep-toe design. Not only is it a romantic pair of pumps, it's also a nice chance to give a peek of your toes. I somewhat think that a pair of peep-toe pumps have to have just the right size opening for a cute look. A pair I saw in an older Newport News catalog had a peep-toe which shown off only one toe. The model in question was wearing a beautiful extra wide-leg pair of Pretty Pink pants paired with this one-toe showing peep-toe pumps. The little opening in these $760 pair of Louboutin pumps looks pretty nice, though I haven't seen a model wear these shoes. Shoppers always want to wonder what a pair of shoes or sandals looks like on a model before imagining how they would look on a femme's feet. I haven't seen a picture of someone wearing these pumps to know just how they look. These are some expensive pumps. There is some expensive style to these shoes even if worn with an average combination of a T-shirt and some jeans. Seeing the picture of those pink Minibout Rep 942 pumps are cute. I learned that the shoes have a crimson red base to them. So almost any color probably wouldn't go too well with these. The rose pink color from the pumps in Post #12,162 seems just right with the crimson accents of the pumps. If they are offered in some kind of lipstick red color, you won't have to worry about two-tone pumps like these if you don't like the red colors. Otherwise, it's a beautiful pair of pumps. I still love those pumps that sayratee shown off on the previous page.

Anyone know if it's open yet?

I just got 3 pairs of Louboutins from NM and one just STINKS.
I wish I could love it and keep it, but I don't even dare to open the box ever again.

 

[leyla m.]

WHAT???
how could it stink!!! nooooooooooooo.... can you not get another pair?

 

[augustus]

^
It was sold out at Louboutin Hong Kong and exchanging instead of returning will be such a hassle...I can't even describe the smell - it's so horrid that I almost throw up.

 

[leyla m.]

im so sorry to hear this

 

[sayrahtee]

My latest acquisition!

Love those on you, BlkLadyLaw - those zippers are so cool!

And thank you to everyone for the warm compliments on my new red beauties!

 

[Jungla_Juana]

what do they smell like, augustus??
I know it's not a nice subject but it is just so bizarre and I'm curious!!!!

 

[augustus]

leyla m., thank you.

Jungla_Juana, my brilliant mama insists that it is the gross smell of someone's feet mixed with essential oil and the leather. She freaked out when she opened it and warned me against oversea purchases... I can't really tell. Just EXTREMELY unpleasant. I am wondering if someone else have seen it in person and can enlighten me whether this is unusual or not. Unfortunately I dare not to open the box.

 

[Nyni]

thank you Leyla.
Hope they have good ones on sale!!!

Beautiful new additions BlkLadyLaw! Those Passementeres (sp?) are going to look fabulous on you!

Augustus So sorry about the stinky shoes...can you leave them outside for a bit and see if they air out?


Here are my new Black Pigalle 120s in Kid Leather that I got with Sayrahtee at the CL presale party.

I was dying for these when Horatio got a surprise shipment. But, when I went down to get them, they had already sold out of my size. A return came in and Michael had remembered my undying love...I HAD to get them! Had to!!!!

I fear my collection is getting a little heavy with the "unwearable" shoes...

^ michael's a lifesaver!

beautiful shoes!!

[sayrahtee]

JetSet - those shoes looked divine on you! There really was no way you could have left the store without them.

 

[JetSetGo!]

Thank you!

Here they are on....
