The father of the now signature red-heeled shoe Christian Louboutin collaborated with champagne-maker Piper Heidsieck to create “Le Rituel” which is a crystal flute in the shape of a stiletto that accompanies a bottle of bubbly in a box that sells for $500. Believe it or not, but this concept has historical significane. Louboutin says he was inspired by Russian tourists in 19th-century Paris, who would drink vodka out of ballerina slippers to celebrate a ballerina's performance. You learn something new every day. Who knew? So for all of you showstoppers who'll be popping bottles on NYE, here's a sure way to ring in 2010 on a HAUTE note.
I'm a Southern Belle addicted to life in the "big city." Having lived in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago & ATL, I've had my share of cosmopolitan living. My "urban addiction" led me down a destructive path of the 3 Ds: Devastation, Disaster & most importantly...DEBT!!! But it turned out to be the wake-up call I needed because I was forced to put a stop to my bad habits & adopt a more well-balanced, yet fabulous, lifestyle. The good life comes at a cost but you don't have to pay the full price! By no means do I have all of the answers, but I hope that my journey will inspire & prevent others from making the same missteps. This blog is a resource guide for learning how to live like royalty without sacrificing your overall well-being.
