Helloooooo Ladies: Chrisitian Louboutin x Jean-Francois Lesage Marie Antoniette-Inspired Capsule Collection = Let Them Spend Cake!



"Let them eat cake!" Marie Antoinette arguably once said. Well, I wonder what Marie would think of these Christian Louboutin heels designed with her in mind? She did lose her head for spending more money on extravagant fashion instead of feeding her starving people, so I guess she wouldn't mind them.

Louboutin teamed up with famous embroiderer Jean-Francois Lesage of the House of Lesage to create these spectacular heels. Only 36 pairs have been made, and at $6,295 a pop they are very far from my reach. Available in pink, yellow and blue they will be sold via Louboutin's Madison Avenue boutique from February 26. Kirsten Dunst gets a pair for free... naturally."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: In a cosmic coincidence to rival that of Barack Obama giving his historic presidential nomination speech 45 years to the day that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave his legendary "I Have A Dream" homily @ the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., luxury shoe craftsman par excellence Christian Louboutin (move over Mr. Manolo ... lol) has teamed up with famed French embroiderer Jean-Francois Lesage of the House of Lesage to concoct these bank busting Marie Antoinette-inspired beauties just in time for this global recession!

As opulent as The House of Versailles, these pink, yellow and blue early Easter colored treats might force some to take out an extra mortgage on their homes just to touch these $6,295 stilettos. Limited to 36 stamped and numbered pairs in the entire universe, this capsule collection of wearable art is as exclusive as it gets - Marie Antoinette would be proud. Have Y.O.U. had enough yet lil lady? Aight ... good. Now, wipe the drool off of your keyboard and get back to work.
