I’ve been looking for a perfect pair of booties for about six months now and it looks like my journey went full circle- back to square one, folks, which means it’s Louboutin time!!
I worked hard this week so I deserve a dose of Louboutin tonight. I’mma go all out- and nobody ain’t stoppin’ me. Excuse me, I just spent two hours at Target from where I walked out empty handed after transporting hundred different things to foreign locations only to be repeatedly disillusioned by a true definition of value. I deserve a pat on the back and some more because I resisted spending money on hundred useless things that I would otherwise have regretted for the next two weeks.
* Disclosure: I have yet to purchase any of the items discussed below, despite how beautiful, flawless, amazing, and charming they are. When I say “I deserve a dose of Louboutin”, I’m referring to actively, frantically, and passionately thinking/writing about them. Perhaps one day, if I get really lucky, a day will come when I’ll be reunited with those Fuschia C’est Moi Boots at 1/4 the original price (pls continue reading).

Low-cut Patent Boots
These would definitely do. The “Void of Booties” would definitely be filled with these, though I try to stay away from platforms. I’m often commented on my height especially when I wear heels so I’d probably be majorly chastised if I was ever caught in these- I may be wrong, but I find that many girls have this mysterious/strange thing against girls who are taller than them.

Leopard Bootie
I’ve written about these already in a previous post, yet I just can’t get over its beauty. It’s design executed to perfection. They remind me of a black and white photo of a pretty lady with a fedora for some reason.

Chain Embellishment Espadrille
I know, I know. First of all, this isn’t a bootie (but that’s ok, it’s Louboutin!), and it’s like 15 degrees in New York so what crazy girl wears sandals? We do, Cali girls do. LOL. Although I’m not a fan of platforms, especially the ones with the thick stuff going all the way from the soles to heels, these are mighty cute. My eyes were affixed on them for quite some time the first time I saw them in Bazaar.

Slingback Pump
That’s what I call “Classic” (again, this ain’t no booties, yet still super sexy). A pair of these sexy slingbacks will take you everywhere from hip lounges to the office, from your 20’s to 50’s or until Osteoporosis hits you. These are a great investment.
And now, be prepared for a grand entrance of my most favorite booties in the whole world:

C’est Moi Boots (It’s me!)
Very me, indeed. Can I tell you a story that causes me indigestion every time I talk, or even think about it?
My first encounter with these beauties was neither at the boutique nor the internet, nor at Saks nor Neiman. It was at Off Saks that I first laid my eyes on these, and you know what? They were the only pair of Louboutins they had, and most important, they were $280. TWO-EIGHTY!!!! If you are familiar with what they usually run for, you know why I’m pulling my hair out even after ten months since our initial encounter. They were a half size too big, but who cares about that when they are Louboutins! Yes, there was a random blood stain inside the shoe but why is that an issue when they are Louboutins! Hot pink is a bit tricky to wear as shoes, but why does that matter when they are Louboutins! Was I crazy not to snatch them the minute I saw them? Yes. Do I still regret though TEN months have passed? Sadly, yes. What will I do if I get really lucky again and see another pair of Louboutins at 1/4 the original price? I run like there’s no tomorrow, snatch those babies, and run straight back to the cashier.

So now that I’ve let it out a bit, I’m feeling much better. I think it’s safe to go to sleep now. G-nite!
