Christian Louboutin Barbie Shoes

Posted by kim on February 25, 2009

Not only am I a shoe fanatic, but I am also a big Barbie fan!  This year is Barbie’s 50th Anniversary (she looks great for 50), and Christian Louboutin designed the shoes for Barbie that debuted during New York Fashion Week 2009!  Check out the Barbie 50th Anniversary Runway Show below where all the models are wearing Christian Louboutin heels in Pantone 219 Pink.

Shoe Theme Christmas Tree

Above is the Christmas tree in my bedroom, adorned with Victorian and shoe ornaments.  Special thanks to Squeak as she slaved away to decorate twelve Christmas trees (and more) in my house for the Holiday Parade of Homes (click link to view more pictures).  The presents under the tree were Victorian Barbie dolls and Just the Right Shoe boxes.

I want to be Barbie.

I saw these pics of Barbie shoes over on Crispy’s Shoes Blog (and I believe they belong to Hermine Vermeij), but the first thing that came to mind was a card that Squeak told me about, “I want to be Barbie. That bitch has everything.”  So true.

Man, I used to love to play with Barbie dolls.  I especially loved to go to my grandma’s house to play with Squeak’s old Barbie dolls.  My three daughters never got into them as much as I did, against my much delight.  But I still coin the guest room as “Barbietown” as it’s full of Barbie houses and cars and totes of Barbie and friends.  And it also houses my Holiday Barbie collection.  I have every Barbie in that collection from 1989 still new in the box.  The first one debuted in 1988 and goes for a pretty penny if you can find one. I’ll have to go downstairs and take a pics of the Barbies to share, and then maybe I’ll line up all the Barbie shoes!
