I am DEF OCD when it comes to shoes!

[babelic]

WOW, amazing collection! Thanks for sharing :)

[Cherry44]

So many pretty shoes!

[Staci B]

Wow

[TFFC]

I am trying to think of a word to describe your collection. I will consult the thesaurus later and get back to you...

For now, I will use "amazing", "stunning", "unbelievable"

When you have time, could you please model some of your CL Pigalles? The 15cm ones...I haven't ever seen anyone wear something that high that isn't a platform shoe!

Is your bag collection as impressive as your shoe collection?

PS. I have subscribed to this thread

Fate, your CL collection is mind blowing to say the least, you're def the Louboutin

I just bought a pair of Simple pumps from NAP. Do they run true to size? I am normally a 38 or size 7. I have a pair of CL round toe pumps (don't know the name) which was a wee bit small at 38 and a pair of Glamassima slingbacks which I took 38 1/2.

TIA!

WOW! What a STUNNING collection!

[SilverSea]

Wow all your shoes are beautiful but I
LOVE all your Loubitons!!!!!!

Hi MsPiggy. Sorry to be getting back to you so late -- was on vaca.

The Simple pumps are what I call my "standard" Louboutin size -- anything non pigalle, non decolette. They are, by comparison, 1/2 size smaller than my Manolo size, and 1 full size smaller than my Choo size (so, for argument's sake, I wear 39.5 in Manolo's, 40's in Choo's, and a standard 8.5US women's, I'd take a 39 in the Simple). But then, I have slightly wide feet. Hope that helps a little, and hope I'm not too late!

Modeling pics? Ugh! My ugly feet! I couldn't bear to subject you ladies to that torture! LOL

Admittedly, I don't get a chance to wear my taller Loubies too much. Wore my Lovas to the company XMas party and got glares that would melt steel from some of the ladies. So I save the tall heels for nights out, mostly with the BF because he's sooooo good at pampering me when I'm in killer heels -- car to pick me up right in front, holds my arm, seeks out rest spots, etc. Def the best accessory to my high heels!

My bag collection definitely is outnumbered by the shoe collection! But don't you worry -- I'm working on that day and night!

Vacation, that’s nice . Unfortunately, I do not own any Manolos or Choos, yet. The CL shoes came today. I took 38 which seems ok although I think 37 ½ would also fit but might need a bit of stretching out. In any case, the 38 was the last pair on NAP. Thanks for your reply.

I’m looking to get the V Prive too as I love peep toed pumps, so classic. And possibly the Pigalles or Decolette (gosh the list grows fast doesn’t it). How do these run?

Ms Piggy --

As far as Very Prives go, they don't vary in size like the decolettes or the pigalles, so they are 1/2 size up from your Simple pumps.

The decolettes and the pigalles vary vastly in size depending on material and factory. My black jazz decolettes are 1/2 larger than my tan jazz decolettes and 1 full size smaller than my patent and oxblood decolettes. My lace pigalles are a full size larger than my leopard print pigalles, which are 1/2 size smaller than my calf hair pigalles. There really isn't a "standard" size for these two shoes. It's always "give-or-take", so I wouldn't recommend purchasing them w/o trying them on, or in the very least, order them where you can return or exchange.

All this, of course, is a generality. If your feet are on the narrow side, all bets are off! LOL

Hope that helps you!

Thanks fate! My feet is on the wider side. Ok, I'll stick to V Prives for now until I get to try out the Pigalles and Decollettes in person, the latters sure sound rather confusing. I like the closed-toe mary janes too. Sigh, I am sensing a major obsession with CL shoes!!!

Oh my, your shoe collection is beautiful!
