Back in 2005 or 2006, I remember seeing a pair of green satin Louboutins; I think they were the Pigalle 120, but I'm not sure because the picture just showed the back. They were so gorgeous and sexy, but way too expensive for me back then (I was in my first couple years of college) so I never even thought about it. Then in early 2008 when I had my first decent-paying job, something reminded me of Louboutins. I started searching on ebay, doing sizing research, looking at NM and saks.com every day. I actually bought a pair of red-soled Oh Deer!, but quickly realized my mistake when I got them. The quality was horrible, they were super uncomfortable, and I just didn't feel right about them. I sent them back.
A few weeks later, I saw a pair of green satin Pigalle 100 on ebay! I instantly thought of the picture in the magazine I had seen a few years back. The price was low, so I decided to snipe. I won them for around $250, and I was so excited! I was also a little scared b/c I wasn't sure if they'd fit, and it was more than I'd ever spent on a pair of shoes. When I got the package, I tried them on and they fit perfectly! So began my obsession.
