The Simple Pumpby Christian Louboutin
$520.00
Right now the shoes that I want (but can't afford) are Christian Louboutin. Just some gorgeous, simple black heels with the signature red sole! Ah, to walk into the party in those is an instant confident booster.
This footwear specialist's name is now mispronounced in virtually every language by the swarms of elegant women who, from Los Angeles to Paris, Singapore to Monte Carlo, make and destroy reputations. He has a boutique in Paris and another in New York, stacks of press articles and legions of imitators. It all started when, as a child, he paused in front of a sign at the Museum of Oceanic Art in Paris. It showed a stiletto heel crossed out by two thick lines, reminding women visitors not to scratch the wooden floor. "What purpose could such a fine, sharp heel have other than to prove you could create the unreal from something real? I spent most of my school years reproducing it on my exercise books and desktops." Christian Louboutin went back to school, to learn all the basics at Charles Jourdan, Maud Frizon, Chanel, Saint Laurent. "I like women to see my shoes as objects of beauty, as gems outside the realm of fashion, with their own universe. Shoes are not an accessory; they're an attribute. With Louboutin's and a pair of jeans or an evening gown, you're dressed," says the designer, adding: "Women express themselves through their shoes."
Isn't that the truth!
