I love shoes with glitter, but amazingly, I don’t own many glittery shoes! Ever since “The One That Got Away“, I’ve been a bit traumatized, especially about red glitter heels.
But then I opened an email from Neiman Marcus and saw these:
Louboutin platform peep-toes in deep glittery red. Oh My!
They are truly delicious and I am a sucker for a red heel but then… then I saw this:
Deep marine blue glitter. More unusual than red and I’ve already proven that I adore blue heels. So this… this may be more irresistible than the red.
There was just one problem. While I got the email on Monday about these being a part of the Fall Pre-order (not shipping until at least July!) there were NO MORE blues in my size.
At this point I was a little incensed so I decided I needed to speak to the buyers about this. After calling around the corporate office I got a hold of the online buyer and she confirmed that, yes, this is typical. No wonder my size sells out so fast! And worse, this shoe was only for online… would not be in stores… so I was probably totally out of luck.

I\’d say that 9 times out of 10 when I see a fashion shoot that really makes me say \”I love those shoes\”, the are Louboutin. As Tweeted, no-one does heel shapes better.I\’ve got 3 glittery pairs in my collection. 2 are gold (1 pair are display purposes only) and one red.Best of luck getting your size. I\’m a UK size 8 to 9 depending on maker which is right at the top end of standard size range. That\’s the downside of being 5\’10\” tall!D x

While the red is nice, you\’re right that the navy is spectacular. It reminds me of the night sky.Also, wtf, Neiman? I can understand carrying fewer in the fringe sizes than say 7,8,9s. But ONE PAIR? SERIOUSLY? Especially given how many celebs have tiny feet, they could certainly sell more than that…
