This Week in Southern California Shoes

posted by: Shomore in Christian Louboutin Shoes on March 1st, 2009

It’s been rather overcast and downright gloomy here in Seattle.  However, I don’t have anything to complain about compared to all those ladies and gents who are stuck in the snowstorm on the East Coast.  So for everyone who, like me,  wishes for warmer weather, here’s a sunny Southern California edition of ‘This Week in Shoes’.

- Plush Junkie attends the Louboutin signing over at the South Coast Plaza mall and writes about her first-hand encounter with the Marie Antoinette shoe.  I must not be jealous. I must not be jealous. It’s useless.   I AM jealous.

- Over on Youtube, Florence shows us the shoe box that accompanies the Marie Antoinette shoe and provides another take on the meaning of the boat on the ankle strap.

- For the recessionista, the LA Times has a list of four cobblers who will update your shoe and bags to give you a fresh new look.   Now, I don’t know about you, but I like to preserve my nicer bags and shoes.  I can’t bear to consider that someone actually paid to have her Mulberry Bayswater bag dyed a different color.

- SavvyMode is going on vacation (whew, she’ll still be posting) soon and she recommends these mesh JCrew flip-flops that are comparable to the $100+ crystal ones.

    [...] For me they evoke Marie Antoinette much more strongly than the Louboutin ones that we recently discussed. For one thing, the heel height is in keeping with the era, also the decoration around the toe box [...]

    I have a confession…… I was on the verge of trying the shoes on (the last pair was in my size) when I remembered that it's been weeks since my last pedicure. I couldn't bring myself to slip out of the safety of my closed toe heels and bare them in that condition in front of all those fabulous ladies. DAMN!
