Manolo Blahnik Personal Appearance.

News_Manolo Blahnik_June 2010

If you've ever watched an episode of Sex and the City, you know who Manolo Blahnik is... or you should! Some say wearing a pair of his shoes is "better than sex". The famed shoemaker will make a personal appearance this Wednesday, September 29 at Neiman Marcus. During his rare appearance in Houston, he will sign shoes purchased that day in the store. You'd better request a long lunch break, he's there at 1pm!
