Some people's parents teach them the family business or how to meet a rich spouse or how to cook. Not me. My parents taught me how TO SHOP. If you love clothes, shoes, food & drink as much as I do, then you are in luck: I am your feet on the street in New York telling you where to get great stuff at a good deal. Follow me as I trek through the shops and restaurants of New York (and cyberspace) on your behalf...

The Ugliest Shoe Ever...By Christian Louboutin
I just got an email from Saks announcing the new Spring arrivals from Christian Louboutin, and this was the pictured shoe. I realize that it's easy to make fun of white shoes, but COME ON. These are hideous in ANY color, but particularly white. I think I just got kicked off the demo chart.

Personally don't find them all that objectionable, although I wouldn't choose them for myself.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the shoe a pole dancer would wear to Easter mass.
ReplyDeleteI would like it in an earthy color.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure they're the ugliest shoes ever, but I do think there are too many things happening at once on the shoe. The woven cage is not made better by the clog/slingback hybrid or wood platform. This is a definite lesson in simplicity.
ReplyDeleteI was playing the "what if I won a million dollars game" and which Cinderella slipper would I select - but this may be the ugliest shoe season ever. Since shoes are my weak spot, this bodes well for my wallet

I guarantee you that they will be all the rage among Hollywood elites....and then we'll all be wearing them come May....
ReplyDeleteha gmb! yeah, they are a little terrifying.
ReplyDeleteThere is also a bootie version which I like very much by Louboutin. As featured here.
