Shoe Lust

Posted by Caro On March - 26 - 2010174 COMMENTS

There’s something very empowering about a sexy stiletto. The simple act of putting on a towering designer shoe can make you forget your insecurities for a moment. Shoes like this instantly put pep in your step and sass to your walk. Plus, a good dress shoe can instantly add glamour to your outfit. So you’re feeling good and you’re looking good.

Having a Napoleon Complex I think the bigger the better. A real tall stiletto adds length to your legs and gives you a sexy silhouette. They don’t have to be too flashy. A classic shoe never gets old. My favorite for any occasion is the peep toe. Talk about classic beauty!

Now the mother of all peep toe stiletto shoes and the Holy Grail to my collection would be none other than the Christian Louboutin black pump. The signature red bottom is a sign of fashion supremacy. And to think that it’s not even the initial focal point of a show. However, this particular shoe brings attention to itself in simplicity, elegance and unadulterated jealousy!

In case you live under a rock a monumental event has occurred:

After a year long struggle and the biggest test of Obama’s presidency the health care bill is passed. What does it mean? With so many passionate opinions out there it’s tough to figure out whether we should be excited or appalled.

What do Americans think?
“A new CNN poll finds that 59% oppose the plan, versus only 39% who support it, and 56% think it creates too much government involvement.
The counterargument: Of that 59%, 13% oppose it from the left, which means a total of 52% support it or say it doesn’t go far enough.”

*CHEERS*

The beginning of anything is pretty significant. The birthplace, the induction point, the starting line… And here we are at the start of my personal blog. Where I will send you into a spiraling enthrall of randomness. I’ve been told I’m an interesting little creature, so I’m sure I’ll have plenty to share that will perk your ears up.

The first and foremost task, however, will be to let all the Antisteezers know what they should be doing this week. Stay tuned for that blog post.
