Everything about the so called "peep-toes". Today. Once upon a time the peep-toe was a weapon. Hollywood divas back in the 30s like Rita Hayworth and Greta Garbo cut out their normal pumps. They created a sexy foot décolleté to presented their toes. Back then this was a huge scandal.

Todays perfectionist of the peep-toe is Christian Louboutin. Forget Manolos. Here are Louboutins. His shoes are art. And there is only one shoe designer whose footwear is instantly recognisable just from the soles. What makes Christian Louboutin's shoes stand out at first is the glossy nail-varnish red sole that has become his trademark. Right now he is the most famous shoe designer in the world. Everyone wants a pair of his creations. Stars like Nicole Kidman, Gisele Bündchen, Victoria Beckham or Nicole Ritchie are already wearing shoes of the 43-years-old designer from Paris.
"I want to make shoes that are like jewels," Louboutin explains. "Shoes are more than just an accessory; they are an extension of a woman."
All his shoes have the same specific items: they are incredibly sexy and luxurious; fine craftsmanship, quirky designs, with killer high heels.

His peep-toe "Very Privé" for example is like magic for every woman's legs: it makes them longer, it turns them into gazelle-like legs. They will be optically lengthened by 5cm. But the question is: Is it possible that a 12cm high heel is still comfortable to wear. Louboutin answers: "Of course, the heel has to be right in the middle and the foot bed has to be really soft. I got some hints from revue dancers."

Of course these shoes are nearly unaffordable, especially with our small wallet. But I found a cheaper version which is on top a Louboutin-lookalike, including even the red sole. They are produced by the "Oh Deer! inc." and you can easily purchase a pair for let's say 100 euro instead of the Louboutin price of at least 500 euro.
"oh?DEER! Styles include peep toe pumps, sling backs, wingtip ankle boots, knee-high boots and more in a variety of four-inch cork heels and stacked wooden platforms. All possess the ever-popular red soles. Donna Reed meets ?Desperate Housewives? for a vampy vixen yet demure diva look. Named after Hollywood starlets and characters of yesterday and today, gals can walk in the footsteps of Marilyn and Audrey or experience the feud between Jennifer and Angelina (minus the love affair with Brad Pitt)."
