Sample Sale Report: Christian Louboutin
I was expecting a shitshow but it was surprisingly calm inside. All the shoes are laid out on racks and are in the boxes - so you literally have to open each box up to see what's inside. Pricing started at $150 for shoes and capped out around $900 (ballpark) with the majority of the shoes coming it at the $250-$350 mark (everything is organized by size and each box is color coded to correspond to a price). Classic styles like black patent or nude pumps are rare but there's quite a bit of merch to go through. In terms of sizing, if you have really small feet (34-35.5) or really large feet (40 and up) this sale is your oyster. While there are other sizes available, common sizes like 37-38 are not as plentiful.
There are no men's shoes at this sale but hopefully that will change soon since the men's store in Meatpacking opened up this year - fingers crossed! I knew this was a women's only sale but for a moment, I had a short lived pang of excitement as my friend saw a guy trying on some shoes. After trying to look without making it seem like I was looking, I scouted a pair of platform sandals on his feet (he had issues balancing while standing up - so I think a shorter heel would have worked better). I sighed inside - forgoing the thought of scoring a pair of shoes for myself, and went back to looking for pumps for my sister.
Definitely a fun shopping experience - thanks T!
This sale is open to family/friends (invite/rsvp required) next week and has a very strict door policy, so don't have any expectations if you try to crash.

Fall 2012 Trends: Metal Plated Shoes
I know winter has barely begun, but as I was perusing GQ's 100 Best Pairs from Fashion Week, I noticed quite a few pairs featuring metal for Fall 2012. Classic silhouettes paired with chunkier hardware accents provide for an edgier take on modern footwear.
From Costume National, to Louis Vuitton, to Salvatore Ferragamo, to YSL - there were plenty of options which were showcased down the runways.
But to be fair, it looks like everyone took a page from Balenciaga and Louboutin - who actually introduced this in their Fall 2011 collections.
