Wohoo 100th Post!. Thought I would celebrate and look at some other facets of the red sole empire today.First, a run down of the variations of the pigalle currently available. Do remember that pigalles are highly customizable according to customer specs and this does not cover the entire spectrum.

Still saving up for buying a pair?. No worries. If you live in the U.K, a company called Cinderella Me, lets your rent out Pigalles for £70 a week, which is well priced if you plan to wear them everyday.
Despite its status as the most popular Louboutin creation, spotting pigalles is not as easy as it looks .Take this example- Ayesha Depala (via The Shoe Shelf Blog) is a well know South Asian designer and one of my early finds .
We would love to add more images like these, but we are stickler for high res images, and unfortunately, most forums that do have good images stick with European and American music and movie stars rather than on global style icons, though I am open to other stars from around the world provided the images are of high quality and clarity.Ayesha however, does deserve kudos for having excellent taste nonetheless!Finally- Want to know how to say it au francais?Onwards!
