Christian Louboutin has created a special carrier bag that includes a bottle of champers and a crystal champagne flute shaped like a stiletto. The package, known as Le Rituel, costs $500, and you can watch a 3-minute film about it here.
I'm curious now as to whether or not my robe is manufactured by Blair. The sleeve (VERY BRIEFLY) caught on fire when I was taking something out of the oven--no part of the robe touched anything in the oven, either. #olsentwins
I'm not surprised that Louboutin would turn down a diffusion line.
Wow, Blahnik really hates platforms, yeah? This is like the 3rd time I've read about his hate for them. #olsentwins
@femme-bot: I know. I'm starting to wonder if it's a grade school thing. So, maybe he's always publicly pulling Platform's hair. But I think what he REALLY wants, in his heart of hearts, is for Platform to keep him warm on his long, cold, dark nights of the sole.
That's a comfortable moccasin that you can drink sparkling wine out of while watching bad TV movies at 3AM, right? If so, I've been in the market, and Etsy has provided no help. #olsentwins
I feel like a piece of crap for even looking at these emails. It just feels like all kinds of wrong- what an invasion of privacy.
Yes, he screwed up by having an affair but so have many many other politicians in history.
Why is this particular affair such a big deal? Why is it even news anywhere but SC? I don't agree with his politics at all, but this is just ridiculous.
@maggie_may: Uh, because HE DISAPPEARED! He's a governor who flew to Argentina and pretended to be hiking the Appalacian trail. Plus he's another in a long line of bigots who didn't practice what he preached (and voted for). You don't see why it's newsworthy?
@SarahMC: I'm doing this!: Yep, it's one thing if he just had an affair. It would be another week of a politician confessing to one but the fact that he just disappeared for days when he's supposed to be in charge of the state...that's just weird.
@maggie_may: Because he disappeared, turned off his phone and gave different stories as to where he went. Because he had been espousing family values, marriage, fidelity, as one of his platforms. Because he MAY have used taxpayers' money to fly to see his mistress. Because he was serious contender for the next presidential election.
We need to add this to a category of "Crap Emails From a Dude" wherein said dude attempts to compensate for shitty behavior by clumsily baring the confusion and torment in his soul brought on by loving you so much.
I have a vault full of these if you need examples.
Is Maria like the token mistress name or something? It seems like everytime a politician has an affair, the other woman's name more often than not ends up being Maria.
I'm torn. As someone who has been married ten years the whole " I work the land and love you and watch the sun come up because I'm so rugged and fantastic" sentiment makes me throw up in my mouth.
However, as someone who remembers what it was like to be courted I can say the whole "I miss you so much you are a glorious sun goddess that makes me whole" sentiment probably would have made me swoon a little bit.

isn't that the problem though? that we don't keep up this important "romancing" of our partners as our relationship gets years behind it? maybe if we all put more romantic effort into our long-term relationships (i'm also in a 10-year relationship), we wouldn't need to find others to do this. i get that after 10 years that ultra-romantic omG i can't be away from you for 5 minutes feeling settles down~~ but that doesn't mean that romantic time together has to die too.
@msAnthrope: I believe you speak the truth. A smart friend of mine says "once you're married, you should continue to date your spouse" I'm coming up on year 4 with the BF myself :)
@msAnthrope: Oh no, we still love each other passionately and he is still romantic, just in a different way. If my husband tried to send me an email now about how he worked outside in the dirt all day and he is king of all that he surveys and NO ONE else in the world likes the feeling of an air conditioned truck cab I would roll my eyes. When he gets up in the morning and is extra quiet and then cleans the house for two hours before waking me, now that is romantic.
i think that's couples just getting lazy with their relationship. i believe that with some effort relationships can endure while maintaining that spark of romance and love... it doesn't necessarily have to become drudgery, don't you think?
you mentioned the Sun Goddess line, that's why i made the comment :) . i understand what you mean though~~ as people get to know each other, they understand more subtle ways of showing "romance" to their partner that isn't so obvious to other people. me and my partner used to exchange breathless love letters to each other before we were together, and every once in a while i feel that sad little twinge that the endorphin-crazy hormonal stage of every relationship simmers down.

I hope that they intended it to be pronounced a la Flavor Flav, because it is now permanently etched that way in my brain.

It's just a simple function of spending way, way, way too much time with someone else. Divorce rates and lifespans correlate.
