Christian Louboutin (February 2009 - November 2010)

I was wondering about those 'Marchesa' heels. I wonder about those designs for other designers ever being released but i guess now they do..

But seriously, I think stock totally varies between stores & towns. Sometimes in So Cal, LA's Saks or OC's Neimans carries more Loubs than the Loub boutique here and are able to pull from other stores easier.

last time i was in nyc the lady at the CL boutique totally assured me that i wouldn't be able to find the wallis anywhere in town.

the following day i found them at saks. i wont ever again believe in a CL s.a. lol

3 Chanel, 4 Vuitton, 4 Dior, 4 Cartier, 2 Manolo, 1 Louboutin, 3 Ferragamo, Fendi, Bottega, Prada, Marc Jacobs, Gucci, Neimans, Saks, Barneys, Nordstom.... yup, it's shopping heaven alright!
It's all good, I spoke to May this morning at Barney's in the Palazzo, she'll have a a few pairs in my size range set aside for me when I arrive.
Thanks for all your help ladies!

shelley - the Louboutin boutique at Palazzo is like being in heaven! They had a good selection when I was there the last time.

If anyone sees any Mad Mary's or nude patent Decolletes please let me know!

I think the site comes across as very old-fashioned to me! It seems very thrown together and amateur-ish.

As in the Louboutin site? I hate the Louboutin site so much, it's such a mess.

I took some new photo's of my Black Patent and Nude Patent Pigellas. Hope everyone likes them. I just love these shoes. I think they are the sexiest shoes I have ever seen.

 

[Jellylicious]

You look fab!!!! Sexy! Hard to walk?

 

[rosalynn]

Sublime! Classic shoes in classic colours. They look amazing on you. How do you find them? They're the hardest shoes I have to walk in, but it's worth the pain.

 

[susan littlejohn]

I need to be careful walking in them, but very much worth it. I just love the look and love just looking down at my feet in them.

 

[farou7a]

susan those pics are FABULOUS!
love them BOTH!!! ouffff..

I need some advice. I'm wanting some CL's in a neutral to give my legs that long, lean look.

Would you share with me your thoughts on CL's beige and nude tones? Which one do you think is better for light/medium tone skin with yellow undertone?

I already have some Simple 85's in Camel which I like, but they aren't quite neutral enough so I want to add one more pair.

 

[Jellylicious]

I just bought the banana in beige patent and love it. i have similar skin to yours but lean more towards medium than light. I had the camel decos as well but find the beige patent perfect/neutral for my skintone.

Hmm, okay guys I need some help. I absolutely fell in love with those gorgeous shoes from Loubi

The graduation party is in 1 month and I already bought this dress

(source: French Connection)(Link: http://www.frenchconnection.com/pro...s/71AA3-71IB3/Jumping+Junior+Belted+Dress.htm). I would wear it with the Loubi shoes because it seems to match the coral/peachey colour of the belt. Also I would turn the belt on the coral colour side of it, not the grey one.

Do you think it works, do they match not just colour wise but style wise too as the dress has a bit of a traditional chinese style feeling? I absoloutely love the shoes, I would struggle to walk in those 14 cm heels just because they are so beautiful. Thank you very much!

 

[rosalynn]

Love the shoes so much. Bianca is one of my favourite recent Louboutin styles.

I like that dress too, and if I were you, I'd be tempted to wear even with the grey-side up on the belt as I think people will make the colour-connection anyway, I wouldn't want the look to be too matchy-matchy.

If you're going to buy the shoes, I recommended going half a size down as they're loose-fitting around the heel. If you buy more than a half down, you might find they'll stretch too much and will end up loose anyway.

Thank you for the reply Jellylicious. Beige seems to be a little harder to find than nude these days but I'm going to keep looking.

Thank you so much for the reply , I was really wondering what size should I get, I tried on a similar pair and I really noticed the loose-fitting effect around the heel! Thank you .

 

[rosalynn]

You're welcome. Yeah, I think a lot of people over-compensate and buy a whole size down, then it ends up worse than ever. I've always bought half down and although it's still loose around the heel, it doesn't stretch.

Hope it hasn't already been mentioned, but has anyone heard of made-in-pt.com? They have a wide variety of Louboutins starting at $80. What's the catch? They look pretty authentic to me; I'm thinking maybe the price is so low because most of them are out of season? That said, a few look like they are from the Classics collection...

 

[Jellylicious]

the reason why the price is SO low is because they are all FAKES! even with out of season styles--no CL shoes will ever go down to 80 bucks. sorry!
