Loubou Dilemma!

Readers of the Frugal Flirty N Fab, today I come to you with a dilemma that's currently weighing pretty heavy on my heart, simply stated I need help deciding To Louboutin or Not To Louboutin!!  I know this may sound silly the fact that a grown ass woman is coming to my readers for clarity as to whether or not I should purchase a shiny pair of Red Bottoms, but don't you dare judge me, I am simply bringing it to my blog in the strictest confidence. I am a woman of the world, meaning I look at my daily news and I know the horrible position that many of my friends and family have been placed in, but that just hasn't quenched my thirst for just one Super Sexy pair of Louboutins. Here I am posting daily postings about how to be Fab on a Frugal budget when 5 out of 7 nights a week I dream of what it would be like to wear Loubou's for the first time. Does that make me some sort of D-list fashion blogging hypocrite???? If so then to hell with all of you! I am a dedicated wife, a full time employee, worlds best mom, a loyal loving friend,and a all around Superwoman (in my head) and I deserve those shoes, all great women do! Life is simply too short and too precious for me not to have a pair!

I've tried so many times to justify me buying a pair but the question, "Are you out of your damn mind", just keeps presenting itself. How will I ever get rid of the guilt of buying a pair knowing there are so many other  more important things I could do with the money? Would I be able to live with myself, Would the purchase be worth it, Would I eventually get over the guilt, Would I start mistreating all my other shoes,Would I wear a hole in them as a form of punishment, are just Some of the questions I ask myself over and over. Help Dammit!

All I know is that some of the worlds most powerful and positive women  have all donned a pair of Louboutins so why should I be any different? When I see a pair my entire world lights up and I immediately hear beautiful melodies in my head. Sunday night I prayed for a sign and seeing Patti LaBelle wearing them at the BET Awards was so much more than a coincidence in my  book, did yall catch that?

If anyone can shed some light on this little dilemma I would luv to hear from you. How do  you go about deciding which fashion purchases to make and which items are simply best seeing from afar? Should One Louboutin or Not?

Fendi A Fashionista Requirement

If you know anything about fashion then you'd know the name Fendi is synonymous with classic styling and the utmost grace. Fendi which is probably most popular for its handbags is currently a Mega Brand consisting of luxury goods including clothing, shoes, furs, fragrances, and eyewear. Fendi is a favorite amongst celebrities  most recently worn by Lea Michelle, Carey Mulligan, Kerry Washington, and Beyonce Knowles.

Being a Luxury brand conglomerate doesn't come without controversy with animal rights activist and fur protesters often throwing paint and chanting dissatisfaction over the brands popular use of fur, but today I gave you a brief lesson in Fendi to ask, can you really title yourself a fashionista if don't own Fendi?

While we all have our own way of answering this question let me show you just how you too can rock Fendi


When deciding what Fendi item to chose as long as you go with something that's classic you never have to worry about your item being inappropriate for any fashion situation that presents itself.



When choosing the perfect Fendi Handbag make sure it compliments a variety of different outfits and plays up your best features and body type. Your bag should show your personality without you ever having to say a word.
I luv talking Fendi, now get out there and Rock It!
