These Louboutin unicorn boots have us totally mesmerised

So pretty

So pretty

Needed more proof that the fashion world is obsessed with sequins, you know in case you weren’t convinced by the pink H&M dress and the Saint Lauren disco boots?

Behold, the Christian Louboutin ‘unicorn skin’ (yes, it’s a thing) boots that have the whole of Instagram mesmerised.

For AW17, the designer has gifted the world with these heels that at first glance appear silver, but stroke them and they turn into a dazzling rainbow.

You really need to see it to totally understand the genius of it all, so see below for the video.

Celebrity stylist Samantha McMillen gave us a sneak peek of the boots on her Instagram, captioning them: ‘I'm calling this "Unicorn skin." Fancy new sequined boots @louboutinworld of course. #unicornskin #ChristianLouboutin #fw17 #sequinedboots.’

Who wouldn’t want glittering boots that you can basically customise to suit your mood? So we got the low down for you.

The boots are called Moulamax, and will retail for £695. They’re part of the AW collection called Rocket Man, inspired by the 70s, and will launch in the UK mid-June to July, so you’ll have to be a little patient.

We bet they’re totally worth the wait though.
