Yesterday, on impulse & for no particular reason why, I had this sudden urge to just draw. I haven’t done it in quite a while, actually drawing. There would be the occasional doodling here or there (like the ones during physics), of course; but as for actually sitting down to complete a sketch or painting, the last time was a year or two ago. A bit sad, no? So out of the blue, I grabbed a sparsely filled sketchbook, a pencil, and decided to attempt drawing the much-talked about Louboutin for Rodarte shoes.
So here lies the end result. And yes, I took the pictures on my leopard print bed sheets, yet again. They do make for a rather interesting background. The quote by the shoe can be read here, if you’re curious.
I’m not exactly sure if I like it. Your opinions?
La C.
P.S.: I’ve gotten quite a few interesting questions for the FAQ section so far; do feel free to ask them by asking in the comments or sending an e-mail! Be as professional, as creative, or as straight-forward as you’d like!
thebaglady says
brilliant. simply AMAZING, La C.
thebaglady says
oh, and as for some questions…
– how old are you? (if you don’t mind telling!)
– what’s your favorite song?
– favorite designers?
sorry my questions really aren’t too interesting at all, lol.

La Couturier says
aw thanks, darlings!
to lisa: i’m actually not a fan of the actual shoe either!! when i first saw them on style.com they just looked scary… like shoes that you would see in goth/punk stores like hot topic. although i must admit, they could be seen as an interesting work of art!
kristine says
why must all the talent be given to you? 😉 writing, fashion sense, styling, collage-making, & drawing!
oo FAQ questions!
– what songs are on your “on-the-go playlist” right now? (since your ipod is your life, lol)
– designer bags or designer clothes?
– what is the one bag you’ve always wanted?
– celebrity crush?
– inspirations?
– why’d you start this blog?
– other hobbies/passions?
i think i went overboard with the questions?
Demi says
