In 1991, a young shoe designer opened his own shoe salon in Paris. He had no idea that 21 years later his shoes would become the most iconic shoes in the world. Having clients such as Lady Gaga, Madonna, Blake Lively and  Victoria Beckham really helped to increase the awareness of his brand.

I believe, that if you're going to buy shoes, buy quality. You want to feel gorgeous and glamorous in your shoes, and you want them to last. Christian Louboutins are handcrafted using the best materials. Leather is an expensive material to buy, yet the quality, durability and feel are great; that is why many choose to buy Louboutins. With care, the shoes will last for years and will be a staple item in a woman's shoe collection.
