Quote Du Jour: Christian Louboutin- “No one before me has ever used a coloured sole”

“I have the biggest respect for the house of Yves Saint Laurent. Having discussed the matter with them and not been able to reach an agreement, we have had to take this to court. My company has a trademark on the red sole and if we don’t enforce it this would leave the door open for other brands to copy us while jeopardising the identity of the Louboutin red sole. No one before me has ever used a coloured sole to define a brand’s identity. The red sole has become widely recognised as the distinct sign of my brand in the eyes of women all over the world.”

-Christian Louboutin brags and clarifies why he’s suing YSL.

Nicki Minaj Talks Fashion Inspiration Behind Moment 4 Life Video

The Blonds Spring 2011

Oh Nicki, you’re effing weird but totally lovable. Here’s her new video for Moment 4 Life featuring Drake and in it she dons a pair of Christian Louboutin Glitter Pigalle pumps and a blue gown from The Blonds Spring 2011 collection.

As far as style inspiration for the video Nicki says, “I wanted to take a step away from, like, high fashion or, like, [a] hip-hop, sporty type of look and into just, like, real flowy and just to play dress-up,” she said. “I was envisioning a Shakespeare time, and I figured, ‘What would they wear?’ I felt like the first outfit kinda looked like, almost like you’re in Egypt somewhere back in the day, like a long time ago.”

Shakespeare + Egypt ey? This B is cray cray but totally a friend in the head.

Quote Du Jour: Christian Louboutin Talks Shopping for Expensive Things

Christian Louboutin

“I actually don’t know the price as it would have been traumatizing, but it was a leather purple coat at Hermès. The only way for me to buy very expensive things is to not know the price.“

-Christian Louboutin tells WSJ.

Quote Du Jour: Christian Louboutin on Heels Getting Higher

Cute watch Loub'!

“When I started, I remember people saying, ‘Oh my God, I can’t walk in that!’ It was like, three inches — they look like kitten heels now. The low cleavage I was doing was considered too sexy, but now what I call a low cleavage is much lower. It’s really very much a mental shift. I remember doing very pointy lasts. People would say, ‘I like the shoe, but it’s too pointy.’ And then the year after, it’s fine.”

-Christian Louboutin reveals.
