You know it, folks: " Ask Hadley: First with the international news stories." Eat my DUST, Christiane Amanpour! So as you can see, there was a niche that needed filling, and that niche was sexy-but-not-slutty-shoes-that-cost-almost-if-not-more-than-half-a-grand-that-you-can-barely-walk-in.Īnd I can bring you EXCLUSIVE news that in the upcoming and pretty-much-guaranteed-to-be-awful Sex and the City movie, Carrie has jettisoned her famous "Manolos" in favour of "Louboutins". Here's the sitch: Louboutins are sexier than Manolos without being quite as trashy as Choos (nor as downright slutty as Gina, but not as artistic as Nicholas Kirkwood, nor as elegant as Rupert Sanderson, and not as flattering as Jonathan Kelsey). What it actually is about is the rise of a fancy-pants shoe label, Christian Louboutin, which is part of the Manolo Blahnik/Jimmy Choo/Christian Louboutin holy shoe triptych (or Bermuda triangle, depending on how much horror the concept of paying over £400 for a pair of shoes inspires in your breast, Charlotte). Sometimes, you just want to feel a little fancy.Kind of. Owning a pair of Louboutins that you can cherish forever is what makes the splurge worth it. If this hasn’t proved that you need a pair of your own red bottoms, I don’t know what will. Bottom line: Louboutin shoes are simply stunning. Wearing something you feel great in is an instant boost for almost anyone, and Louboutins are so polished and perfect that a little endorphin rush is practically guaranteed. Wearing red bottoms is an instant mood-elevator. Just remember, Louboutins are the perfect pick-me-up, no matter what. Louboutins will always fit, no matter how you feel You may not be able to skip leg day at the gym, but you’ll for sure find a few muscles you didn’t know you had. Walking in heels is a workout (sort of).Ĭoming from someone who owns several pairs of the brand’s 120mm stilettos (three pairs, to be exact), I know all too well that it’s as much a balancing act as it is a workout. You can join the community of other loyal Louboutin consumers with the hashtag, #LouboutinWorld, all while spicing up your own Instagram.
Okay, this may not be the most practical reason to drop $600+ dollars on a shoe, but doing it for the ‘gram (at least in part) isn’t something we’d fault you for. Not only that, but you also let everyone else know you have great taste. There’s a high standard of craftsmanship, quality and attention to detail that comes with the name Louboutin, and every time you slip your foot into a pair, you know what you’re getting. The brand’s shoes are ubiquitous, but in a good way. Louboutin experiments with everything from chains and spikes to exotic materials like python and snakeskin, and somehow, makes it all comes together in the sexiest, most sophisticated way. The brand’s seasonal shoes are works of art, and its classics are luxe and elegant. Louboutin pumps are unlike anything else you’ll own.Ĭhristian Louboutin’s attention to detail is the best in the footwear business. Learn from my mistakes: if you’re yearning for a pair of red bottoms, buy them sooner rather than later. I yearned for a pair of black patent leather So Kates, and when I finally splurged, had increased from $625 to $675 in the few months I waited. Back in my TalkShoes days, I fell victim to the fluctuating prices. If you dream of owning your own pair of Louboutins, doing it now will likely save you a few bucks over dithering for another year. Like anything in the luxury market, prices are rising. The prices are only going up, so you may as well bite the bullet now.
Louboutin revolutionized the luxury footwear market back in the early 1990s by painting the bottom of his footwear with red lacquer, and in the intervening decades, no other brand has found such a distinctive way to mark its shoes. The brand’s sustained popularity proves Louboutins aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. Trends come and go, but red bottoms are forever.
Louboutins elevate any outfit.Ĭhristian Louboutin shoes are so distinct that they immediately add polish and personality to basically anything you’re wearing. If you’re thinking of joining that group and making your first Christian Louboutin purchase, we’re here to help convince you with a few reasons of our own. The brand has millions of diehard fans who return again and again, and any Louboutin convert can tell you why they love the signature shoes. By now, we all know the name and we can spot a signature red bottom a mile away, and deservedly so– Christian Louboutin shoes are held in high regard in the luxury footwear market.
