If you’re looking for me this Friday, I’ll be the one salivating along the sidewalk of the Champs Elysees. That’s the day that Christian Louboutin’s hot new macaron gift boxes go on sale at Ladurée. The jewel-toned boxes are sketched in images of Louboutin’s signature shoes, pumps and purses mixed with different flavors of macaron– all in a funky trompe-l’oeil effect that looks like someone tried to rip through the box to get to the yummy treasures inside. And who could blame them? Ladurée pastry chef Philippe Andrieu has created a new Mediterranean-inspired macaron (think figs and dates) to go with Louboutin’s design. The boxes will be available starting from September 11th, but you had better hurry. They’re a limited edition, and won’t be around for long!
