Wanted: Louboutin shoes… please?

Nathalie — Thu, 23 Dec 2010 09:14:46 +0000

I know, I know, not emerging and bloody expensive but hey, a girl can dream and as it’s Xmas tomorrow, I’m dreaming big time! WANT, WANT, WANT and WANT some more!!!! Mh that might not work… please Santa, could I have these…

…for every day wear?

…for Christmas eve dinner?

…to celebrate New Year?

…because I don’t have open back and toe leopard print shoes yet?

…for rainy days?

…for next spring?

…because… mhh… just because I’ve been a good girl and they would look delicious on my foot?

…I could go on but if you are reading this Santa, I’m not that fussy and any old Louboutin would do!!

Shoes We Spotted at LFW

My other obsession which got fed at the LFW are shoes!! My oh my what lovely pairs walked around, here are a few of my favourites:

Go nude for Spring/Summer 10

Nathalie — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 08:38:06 +0000

Nude is everywhere this Spring/Summer and you won’t get away from it. It can work amazingly well or you might turn into a ghost and it washes you completely out (as one of the models shows, above; she looks like she needs a good meal and some sun).

I’m hesitant to put myself in nude as, with a winter complexion, I feel it washes me out or maybe I have not found the right shade yet. I can however accessories in nude and as I’ve been looking for ages for some nude shoes, I’m chuffed it’s coming back and the selection is getting better by the day. A good nude shoe will not only elongate your legs but also go with everything in your wardrobe, and you know it will stick around and then come back, they are an investment!!

I’ve searched the internet wide and far and have put my top finds together. My winners belong sadly in the designer world and might break the bank, but they are just so delicious I have to share them and don’t worry, I found some high-street beauties too.

Fashion trends from 2000 to 2009 – NY Magazine

Sara — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:00:10 +0000

With 2010 fast approaching, I was intrigued to know how our trends have developed over these past 9 years so after taking a look at New York Magazine’s trends of the 00′s I thought it would be great to include it in the run up to 2010.

Take a look at the years piece by piece including Uggs 03-06, skinny jeans 07-present, the rise of Louboutin 04-present, size zero 07-present and many more!

Jennifer Lopez is throwing on her Louboutins

Nathalie — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 13:11:43 +0000

Ahh ahh
Ohh ohh yeah
Ohh ohh
Aaaahhhhhh..

She’s throwing on her Louboutins…

Long song short, whenever she’s having enough of it, she’s throwing on her Louboutins!! Our kind of woman, leaving in style!

Sadly this time some of her fans seem to walk away from this song. The response could certainly be better and reading a few different blog comments are anything but positive.

And I have to agree with most of them, the only exciting bit for me is the word Louboutin being repeated over and over again, but then again, I am strangely obsessed with his shoes.

What do you think?

Guess who’s done it again?

Nathalie — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:42:57 +0000

I know I keep going on about Christian Louboutin but how could you not?! He’s only done it again and topped the last collaboration.

Together with Mattel he’s created three Barbie dolls available in Louboutin shoe boxes, and they come with mini Louboutins!!! How fabulous are those boots, how can I be so jealous of Barbie?!

They will be sold for via BarbieCollector.com & Net-a-porter.com

Drink in style

Nathalie — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 09:53:19 +0000

We loved Christian Louboutin’s collaboration with Laduree producing yummi maroons and we’re so excited we can now wash them down in style!!

The French say Champagne should be drunk straight from a beautiful lady’s slipper, which we’re not sure we 100% agree as that could get quite smelly. But we love the glass shoe which Christian Louboutin designed in partnership with Piper Heidsieck for the Ritual Box Set. I would love to get my hands on one of them!!!

I’ve had my first shoegasm!!!

Nathalie — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 17:46:05 +0000

No really just because I spotted Christian Louboutin strolling into Somerset House at London Fashion Week!!! He looked great and I especially loved the leopard print shoes! I so badly wanted to go up to him and say hi, but chickened out to begin with…I mean look, it’s CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN!

All day we’ve been seeing some amazing Christian Louboutin shoes and earlier on we couldn’t miss these amazing ones that belong to Melissa, Anne and Nour.

It turned out that they all work for Christian Louboutin and were awaiting his arrival.

After the catwalk show I spotted Anne and asked if it would be ok to have a picture taken with him and hurrah, he was up for it!! I felt like a teenager meeting her pop idol, all nervous and so excited; meeting Christian Louboutin is the last thing that I expected to happen to me. I just about managed to say I loved his shoes and a quick “thank you”, but this brief encounter was plenty to keep us happy all day!

Thank you Anne for being lovely!! And of course to Christian Louboutin and his beautiful creations, we love love love them!!

Here are some more of his beautiful creations…

And when I looked up, I realised they belonged to Alex Curran

Well, that was my piece on my encounter with Mr Louboutin and the Louboutins. We have plently more posts covering LFW so make sure you check back!

Emerging Fervour take a walk in the park…

Sara — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 05:31:18 +0000

Thank you everyone who sponsored us for our High Heel Fashion Walk in aid of Action for Children. We managed to raise £180 for this cause…amazing. Thank you!

I’m writing this piece after just having finished the walk with Nathalie and although I almost went flying a few times throughout on some stray twigs and a pebble, I managed to stay upright for the entire walk (thank you to Nathalie’s arm) and make it to the finish line in one piece!

As you can see, Nathalie looks very glam, rocking her Urban Outfitters jumpsuit with her beautiful Scorah Pattullo ‘Natalie’ heels…

Here I’ve decided to go casual with Topshop jeans and a Zara jacket. I love these Liu Jo shoes; they can rock any outfit – no?!

Poor Tracey-Kay! After getting all excited about this walk – she had to cut it short after an accident on the way involving her flip flops, sharp gravel and an unfortunate trip resulting in a very sore and bleeding toe!

So whilst Tracey-Kay was getting her poorly toe cleaned up and patched, Nat and I had to march on and catch up with the other troopers…

With Louboutins, Rupert Sanderson, Fendi and other amazing footwear brands on show, we got so trigger happy with the camera – however this was the only stable shot of the walk we actually managed to get!

Once we got through to the halfway line, we were greeted by some lovely men in tuxedo’s offering us refreshments and a very limber woman doing yoga wearing Marta Jonsson heels – look!

A few random people who saw us asked why a bunch of women were walking round Battersea Park in high heels. Unfortunately it wasn’t so clear as nothing was branded as ‘Action for Children‘ and all our balloons had the Marta Jonsson logo on. We think next year more awareness needs to be made for the actual cause than anything else – after all, this is the reason why we all abused our feet right? Props to Marta though, she is pretty fabulous – her company, Logo 69, design and make shoes for many of the best known high street fashion brands in UK and Europe. Here she is on the right…

At the end of the walk, Marta announced the winners of the most glamorous outfit and the highest heel…Nathalie thought she had the prize in the bag with her 10.5cm heels but the winner walked in a whopping 13cm heel! The two winners were friends with an obvious love for passion as you can clearly see. The lady on the left won the most glamorous outfit prize and the lady on the right won the highest heel prize, she’s wearing Rupert Sanderson heels, our hot favourite from the walk! Here they are…

We had such a good time and we would definitely do something like this again, we’ll keep you posted on any events we’ll be attending. Brace yourselves, we’re on a roll…

Please check back for our video blog on this event very soon! Check out all the pictures from this event here.
