I love the nude Jolie on you the best. I am awaiting my red Ambrosina delivery also. I wondering how the red will look on my skin tone. I think darker complexions always look great in red, purple, fuschia and colors like that. I am wondering if I will like it on me. For myself I am planning to wear them more with pants or jeans.
smurfet, get them! You will look fabulous in them. I have seen the black and red IRL and I prefer the nude in this shoe.
ladydeluxe, these shoes are actually VERY comfortable. I was surprised when I went to go try them on b/c I though for sure they would be a tad tight in the toe box.
And, the Chanel bag was purchased in the Chanel boutique in Paris. It's from the Diamond Stitch line. I went to medical school in London so weekend trips in Europe were a must b/c it was so inexpensive to travel! I purchased it in 2006 and I believe the price at the time was about $1800. And, I didn't get any VAT back b/c I was living in London at the time so when I tried to claim it when I was going back to the US for winter break or something they were like tough luck b/c I was returning back to London after holiday.
I snap them up pretty much as soon as they hit stores/boutiques. lol
Thanks! I think the red will look gorgeous on you. Are you returning your Ricamo then since you are getting the red Ambrosina? Or I guess you could be returning the black mouche? OR you could keep them all? LOL
I plan on wearing the ambrosina with jeans and dresses.
Are you sure these are called Cabaret, only I bought my wife a pair of these, in Black Satin, and the boxed is mark 'Cravtouza'? See this link:Cabaret
My SA told me this is one of Louboutin's favorite shoes b/c he used to sneak into the cabarets as a child. That's not what suckered me in, but just saying. haha

What ever they are called, they are still a beautiful pair of shoes.

Yes, I have just found another reference to these shoes with the name Cabaret.
I'd love to know when the name change took place, or is it just a matter of different names for different markets? I wonder if any other models have more than one name?
Asha, where in India are you from? Ha now i know why your electric blue shoes look so great on you..the color must really POP with your skintone!
More amazing shoes, Asha!
I love the Cabaret and the Ambrosina to death on you. Please keep the Ambrosinas! Surprisingly I'm not all that fond of the Jolie in nude - something about that bow in patent doesn't work for me.
I went to the Saks NYC shoe dept. for the first time recently - and not surprisingly but very disappointingly, they had absolutely no size 38/38/5 in the shoes that interested me You definitely have to move fast to get a shoe in a popular size there! Sounds like you have the in though

How cool! What is that near? I just sold a home to the sweetest family from Bombay. They have been here about a year. She is a nurse and he is a chef. Of course I made him promise me some recipes for Indian food!!I love anything with curry as well!!! He is the most interesting man, I could talk with him for hours. What brought your parents to the States? Do you still have family in India?
Asha, I am so happy that you got your Ambrosinas early (by surprise). They are beautiful and very flattering on your foot. It is a gorgeous shoe! I love the Cabaret and Jolie on you, but the Ambrosina is my favorite of your recent haul. Nude really looks great on your skin tone.
