"Last spring&amp;#x27;s must-have shoe in Hollywood, the Christian Louboutin Differa, was about as practical as a suede swimsuit--five-and-a-half inches high, $1,500, a distinct dominatrix feel--and yet shoe obsessives have managed to one-up themselves with a new Louboutin that&amp;#x27;s been absolutely everywhere. The Clou Noeud 150 Studded Slingback (the number comes from the heel&amp;#x27;s height--150mm or a mind-bendingly high six inches!) has been spotted all over the red carpet in recent weeks, on women of every age, size, shape, and color. And though they arrived to Net-A-Porter less than a week ago, they&amp;#x27;re already sold out in almost half the available sizes, despite their $1,195 price tag. Not that we&amp;#x27;re surprised--they&amp;#x27;re a chic mix of super-girly (high heel, peep toe, leather bow detail) and insanely edgy (hello, studs!), and their neutral tone means they go with practically anything but still have some major wow factor. Five-foot-nine-inch supermodel Heidi Klum towered well over six feet when she wore her Clou Noeuds with a sequined Jenny Packham dress a few weeks ago to a shopping event at A Pea in the Pod.

For Rihanna, these are just, y&amp;#x27;know, everyday walking shoes! She and a friend spent at day shopping in Los Angeles, and she strutted around in a pair of Clou Noeuds with polka dot shorts, a strapless top, and a fedora. Dakota Fanning wore hers to the Los Angeles premiere of Twilight: Eclipse with a nude one-shoulder dress by Elie Saab. She scored second place in our best dressed contest, so I&amp;#x27;m guessing you girls were feeling the heels!
