mika in christian louboutin men's "louis" sneakers

last tuesday, pop sensation mika performed at the enmore theatre in sydney. the beirut born singer wore an interesting blazer with contrasting stripes and checks details, paired with a white shirt with equally interesting cuff details, and a fluorescent pair of sneakers. where are those sneakers from?

christian louboutin of course. the singer and the designer are both close friends, and the latter designed a few pairs of shoes for mika's tours. i've seen the "louis" sneakers in stores and they bear the same red cut off rubber soles.

christian louboutin has a small collection of shoes for men, and the "louis" sneaker is a recurring classic with different colorways each season. i really like the "mushroom" color from current fall winter 2009 collection, still waiting for the day where i am impulsive enough to make the plunge. the classic "louis" retails for about £390.
