    @curlysue- I love heels even though I am plus sized lol!! I figure I would also try and find a very cute pair of red ballet slippers.. so that if my feet start hurting I can change into them and still be cute :D

    Pretty shoes! Make sure you come back here and let us know if they really, truly are authentic and good quality. I've been skeptical of that site for a while so I'm happy that I'll get to hear about it firsthand.

    Just a heads up, you might be cool with this, but it says they mostly use OEM factories:

    We carry quality products:
    With extremely competitive prices, we sell only quality products. Many products we sell are manufactured by true OEM factories and other famous name brands to bring you the best quality products in the market today.

    http://louboutin4u.com/info/4.html

    which means they are not authentic, but likely made at the same place using the same patterns and materials... Im not sure if its legal or not.

    All of that aside, I think they are super foxy and will look awesome on your tootsies!

    What2bee- I saw that.. I guess we will see what they look like when they come. Honestly I didnt care if they came from K-mart I just had an idea of what I wanted my shoes to look like and I couldnt find anything any closer than these..

    Honestly, at that price, who cares! Now, if you were paying the typical price then yeah, I would care.  They are so cute!  As another girl from Kansas I'm diggin' the look :)

    I think I'm on that boat as well Ren, those are definitely sexy shoes, I just wanted to make sure they didn't have you snowed. I almost bought Louboutin's off of ebay, and finally got it out of the seller that they were OEM.. or more likely knock offs compeltely- I've heard conflicting evidence of whether or not Louboutin even has factories in china or not lol... it was heartbreaking, but I couldn't justify even 250 on something that wasn't authentic, or even guaranteed quality.

    It's really good that your friend already bit the bullet and you know this place is at least honest. I am sure they will look hawtt!

    :D Thanks!! She got the black eugines and honestly if they had the silver ones on there I would have gotten them.. I just cannot justify spending $1,100-$1,800 on heels even if its real swovosky crystals on them..

    Any site that is not the designer's own website, but simply uses a variation of their name is never a real site. 

    The only other places you can trust online to be authentic are somewhere like Zappos or Bluefly.

    @TheRen I know you don't care, it was more of a PSA for people who aren't sure about those sites.
