Shades Of Nude - Christian Louboutin

As if I didn't already have a million reasons to love Christian Louboutin! Now, the brand has launched a nude pump collection with colors that match every skin tone! How amazing is this? I know this is especially amazing for my fellow women of color, who are always forced to buy "nude" pumps that are totally NOT our shade of nude. If I am going to buy a pair of "nude" pumps, I would like for them to actually be MY shade of nude! Kudos to Christian Louboutin for actually thinking of us and launching this collection of nude pumps.

This may not be a big deal to you, but it is to me because it starts with designers considering women of color when creating their shoes and eventually it will lead to more women of color on the runways. We have to start somewhere. So personally I think this is awesome. 

Women of color, how many times do you pick up a magazine and the section "Hair Tips" or "Makeup Tips" offers no advice on how to manage your tresses or what shades of makeup will look good on you. Well, it is moves like this one that Christian Louboutin has made that will bring us closer and closer to change.
