  1. I happened to be in Las Vegas and there are not one but two Christian Louboutin stores there. The last time I was there, i stopped in to ogle the shoes but didn't have the nerve to try on any. This time I did. I have been obsessed with CL and have always wanted a pair or at least to try some on. I've heard the sizing can be a little odd so this was a great opportunity to see what fits. I started with the Neofilo which is I think a 120mm heel in size 41. The woman helping me said, "this style runs a little large, what size does she normally wear?" I looked her in the eye and said, "actually they're for me" and she didn't bat an eye. There were only a few people in the shop and I did get a few odd looks but nothing rude. I'm somewhere around a US 10.5 and the CL 41 was too small. We determined that I'm probably a 41.5 but unfortunately they didn't have the Neofilo or the Bianca in 41.5. However they did have the Daf bootie in my size so I tried it on. Let me tell you, it was magical. Those booties are amazing and I felt awesome walking back and forth on the red carpet in the store.

    As much as I didn't want to, I took the booties off and gave them back to the salesperson. I just couldn't dig deep enough to justify spending $1500 for these works of art. If they had one of the less expensive pumps in stock, MAYBE I would have done it. For now, I'll just have to live with the incredible memories of the short time I spent in the land of the red soles.
