Luxury is Right at Your Fingertips

     The world's most iconic red-soled shoe is right at your fingertips (well, sort of).

     Luxury shoe brand, Christian Louboutin, has come out with a nail polish that is the exact same shade of red as the shoes' iconic red sole. This classic shade of red could be yours for the price of $50 (or $58 CAD) per bottle! Most people may think that sounds pretty steep for a bottle of nail polish, but it's only a fraction of the cost of a pair of Louboutins.

     The nail polish bottle stands eight inches tall and has a long, pointed brush handle, which sticks up from above. Actually, it's unique shape was inspired by a pair of unrealistic/unwearable stilettos that Christian Louboutin had made for a 2007 photo exhibit (pictured above).

     The shape of the brush handle looks like it could pose as a slight challenge to apply the polish. I had the opportunity to paint my mother's nail's with this red-hot colour and it isn't actually too difficult; it was, though, a tad awkward to get used to. The colour is long-lasting, bright, and radiant.

     You could purchase the nail polish at Canadian department store Holt Renfrew, or in the states at Neiman Marcus. But act fast, the polish is only limited edition.
