I love Barbie dolls. No - I don't still play with them, silly! But dressing them up as a little girl certainly fueled the fashion bug within me; my great-aunt and mother taught me to sew by hand, so I could whip up stylish duds for Barbie, Theresa, Skipper and the crew.Many, many years after the fact, I can't help but want this Christian Louboutin 'Cat Burgular Barbie.' She looks so damn slick! Look at her - or rather, look at her shoes! Louboutin, acting as Barbie's fairy 'Godfather,' treated her to some tiny versions of his famous, red-soled shoes; the leopard-print boots are just smashing!
What's nice is that this collector's edition Barbie comes in a box that's reminiscent of the interior of the Christian Louboutin boutique in Paris, what with the red, arched recesses that hold those gorg shoes. And it all comes along with a calendar that documents the duo's fashionable travels across France. Tres chic!
