Doing time and selling shoes. That’s precisely what super model Naomi Campbell was doing in early March when she showed up for community service dressed as if she were walking the red carpet, as opposed to fulfilling criminal punishment. I’m talking about the week of community service Ms. Campbell was sentenced to do at the NYC Sanitation Department after assaulting her assistant with a Blackberry mobile phone. On one of the days, Naomi showed up wearing a pair of Christian Louboutin designer stiletto boots, and as a result sales of Christian Louboutin designer shoes spiked by roughly 1,200 units.

This was great news for Christian Louboutin since many of their designer shoe styles sell for over $500, but bad news for Naomi Campbell who had to pick up trash for miles in her $1,500 stiletto boots. Ouch!
