If these shoes look familiar, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. I was lucky enough to get my hands on this popular pair of Christian Louboutins, but unfortunately the first pair didn’t fit.

A huge thank you to my wonderful benefactor for making sure I got a new pair in a slightly bigger size they’re so much more comfortable!

As they had completely sold out in London, the hunt began. I was incredibly lucky to find the very last pair in New York City at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Since Saks doesn’t ship internationally, my lovely benefactor had them sent from Washington, D.C. all the way to me.

Some things really are worth the hunt.
