Covet Christian Louboutin

I covet. I have girly fixation on shoes. I don't do purses, although I have an extensive collection, my heart and sole belong to shoes, the higher the better. I don't buy over priced Jimmy Choos, but I want/love/need Christian Louboutin, recognized by the red soled expensive-ness. My meager salary as a paralegal/litigation assistant does not allow me the excess cash to purchase and my down-to-earth Seattle lifestyle does not allow me the opportunity to show my would be shoes off. Maybe when I make too much money as a lawyer, but that's another day. Meanwhile, I'm one step away from painting my high heeled soles red and fauxing my Louboutin-ness. I would never do that, I'm just not that desperate, although everyone in Seattle would assume they are real (we do not have a concept of faux designer merch, yet). While purusing Bellasugar, I stumble across an ad for Christian Louboutin manicure. Heaven. It is a laquered black nail with the underside painted red. Slightly goth/dominatrix/I-work-in-a-brothel look, but a completely Christian Louboutin nail. I have have spent the last month and a half growing my nails out, and they have finally a) passed my fleshy finger tips, and b) attained a razor sharp quality I am still not used to. This, in and of itself, is a major feat. I was a mighty nail biter in my younger years, biting them down to gross bloody painful quicks so I looked like I had managed sausage fingers. Very lady-like. It bothered my biological dad so much that he would dip my finger tips into the hottest hot sauce in an attempt to get me to quit. Burned like Beelzebub on those open sores, but now I have a very high tolerance to capzasin, I like it spicy. Now that I have not bitten my nails in years and have grown them to a decent length (I know short nails are in, oh well, I'm just not hip), I feel I need this manicure. And I'm not a manicure person or a black nail polish wearing gal. I just love it and it is the closest I will get to a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes in this decade. *sigh* I covet.
