Nigella Lawson took a walk on the wild side as she stepped out in a pair of mega-high zebra print wedges by Christian Louboutin yesterday.

The TV chef jazzed up a plain black wraparound dress with the daring Tigresse Zebra Printed Hairy Calf wedges, the heel of which reaches the giddy height of five inches.

She also added a hot pink clutch bag to her ensemble and a flash a red varnish on her toenails as she attended the Deadly Sins book launch at The English Speaking Union in Mayfair, the Daily Mail reports.

Nigella is known for her Domestic Goddess role following the success of her publications and TV series.

Another celebrity fan of the shoes is Christina Aguilera, it would seem, as the singer was spotted out in a pair of the £295 wedges earlier this month.
