I love the shape and the frames. It should have been no surprise to me when I discovered that they were basically a knockoff of a pair by Tom Ford called Whitney The La Senza Spirit version are $16.50CAD, Tom Ford $300US.

The new Louboutins for SS2007 are out. Here are my favourites This shoe is called Cosette which is funny because I’m giving Les Miserables(the book) a second go.
