Louboutin's sideways tango.

I'm not necessarily a fan of "The Starter Wife", the main character did make a good point. Avoiding Christian Louboutin shoes is like performing an act of tantric sex. Damn near impossible. I love Christian Louboutin shoes, I'll admit it. I love the red soles because oddly enough, my favorite color combination happens to be black and red. Louboutin combines those colors wonderfully and the idea of a red sole makes me happy. Its a profound relief to find black and red boots that don't give you the appearance of having stepped foot into the soul sucking, tween idolized Hot Topic. I'll admit once that would have appealed to me (every kid goes through their stages; in my day it was goth, nowadays its emo) but now I prefer a look that doesn't scream vampire.

Yet with my financial status and planned future with a focus on rescue, Louboutin has become easy to avoid. With the lowest price tag for a simple pair of pumps being around $565 Louboutin shoes are one of those things in my life that I'll have to simply wave good bye and hope that someday that myself or my better half will be able to afford at least a piece of these. Classy.

It makes me wonder if taking out a loan for a pair of shoes would be at all selfish.
