Three hours later, longer than the average showroom visit, they wrap up their order. Momo, the showroom’s cheery apron-clad chef/travelling mom christian louboutin, prepares a delicious mozzarella salad with figs and prosciutto-just what we need to fuel our trip across town. 5 p.m. We arrive at Pierre Hardy’s showroom, tarte au citron in hand. Tucked away in a nondescript Parisian neighbourhood, the christian louboutin sale(which used to be Hardy’s apartment) features soaring Gothic ceilings with golden mouldings, marble pillars and giant windows next to black lacquered mirrors-the perfect setting for his subversive yet chic signature Christian Louboutin Boots.

Pierre, who’s wonderfully down-toearth, shares a laugh with Anna and Lisa and they get to work Neoprene and black patent-leather parry heels, and dusty-pink and gold strappy stilettos make the order. The sure christian shoes? A sparkling gold and beige mesh pump that’s elegant enough to pair with a cocktail dress, but rock ‘n’ roll enough for jeans, too.
