Well done on taking a course to boost your knowledge - as an IT geek with over 30 years experience, I can say that you never stop learning :) I reckon you are right about the other vlog idea - might be too much for one person. clearly what you are doing now works well, so don't spread yourself any thinner :)

Because the price pays for the brand and its signature red paint. Louboutin just got the idea from seeing an assistant's red nail polish. He now sells that red nail polish for $50 a tiny bottle.
