Elisa Sednaoui in Christian Louboutin boots

As beautiful as model Elisa Sednaoui is,  when I looked at this photo, I had eyes only for her shoes, which are Christian Louboutin’s knee-high mesh boots. Yes, mesh knee boots, you read that right. I guess they’re intended to be the perfect solution for people who want to continue wearing boots in warmer weather, and I can see how that would work, but I’m afraid these get the thumbs down from me. Here’s why:

Christian Louboutin 'Poseidon'

I’m almost definitely biased, but I don’t think there’s a shoe designer out there who does peep toes quite like Christian Louboutin.  And these ones? Beautiful. Just beautiful.

Christian Louboutin ‘Poseidon’ pumps, £1,195



A go-with-anything colour, and a design that’ll be just as pretty for you to look down at as it will be for other people to watch you wear. Because with shoes this pretty, you’re going to be spending a lot of time looking at your feet…

Christian Louboutin Lady Bow champagne slingbacks, $735



Dita Von Teese in Christian Louboutin shoes

Oh, what I wouldn’t give for just a few minutes alone inside Dita Von Teese’s shoe closet!

Dita almost exclusively wears Christian Louboutin shoes, many of which are custom-made for her by the great man himself, so it comes as no surprise to see her out and about this week in these sparkly CL sandals. Aren’t they just beautiful?

Take a look under the jump to see what Dita wore with them!

Barbie pink Louboutins! For those days when you just have to channel Elle Woods…

$795 at Barneys.



Oldies: but most definitely goldies.

Christian Louboutin Gorgone 120 peep toes, £395.12



Quite simply the perfect pair of python print peep toe pumps.

Now try saying that really, really fast…

Available at Net-a-Porter, where they’re £820.



Christian Louboutin Crepe-de-Chine Slingbacks

Christian Louboutin Crepe-de-Chine Slingbacks

Ahhh! A navy, slingback version of the Lady Page pumps, only in crepe-de-chine! Wonderful. Friday night feels so much better now.

What: Christian Louboutin ‘Mad Mary’ studded pumps
When: Saturday, January 30, 2010
Where: A friend’s birthday drinks in a local bar
With: Purple dress, ASOS.com, black tights

Did you think I’d forgotten all about my Shoeper Shoe Challenge?

I promise I didn’t: I did actually get through a few different pairs of shoes last week, but the week was so busy I didn’t have time to photograph them, which, of course, means they don’t count! D’oh!

Anyway! Here is the first installment of the challenge, and after all of the trouble I went to to get my Mad Mary pumps in the first place, I figured it was only right that they should be the first pair of shoes I “rescued” by wearing them! As luck would have it, an opportunity to do just that presented it in the form of a friend’s birthday drinks on Saturday night, so the Mad Marys were GO!

I wore them with a purple dress from ASOS.com, and suspected I’d be the most overdressed person in the room, as usual, but as it turned out, I needn’t have worried, because people were wearing everything from jeans to sequined mini dresses!

These shoes are lots of fun to wear, and, of all of my shoes, are the ones that seem to get most attention: they always get lots of comments, and I’ve bonded with many a fellow shoe-lover who’s come over and asked me about them, so I guess they’re a good conversation-starter too.

So, one pair down, seventy pairs to go!

How’s everyone else getting on with their challenge?

In response to reader demand (um, well, there were a whole TWO requests! Hi, both of you!) the Friday Night Louboutin Fix is back! But I’m worried. In fact, I think there may be something wrong with me. Look at these shoes, readers. Three points:

a) They’re by Christian Louboutin

b) They have polka dots

c) And a bow. A big one.

So, polka dots AND a bow, on a shoe by my favourite designer. And yet somehow I’m not feeling the urge to buy them. (Which is probably a good thing, because they’re $795. ) Too cutesy? Too costumey? Or just a passing moment of madness on my part? What do you think, readers: do you love these? Get them at Barneys if you do: they’re also available in black and white (And no, I’m somehow not feeling those either. Maybe I should go and lie down…)
