Your Life is a Pair of Amazing, Limited Edition Louboutins

28 December 2008 • Kimberly • Leave a Comment

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?

stuff-005xoxo,

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!

    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.

    i need to be able to find that urge to just spontaneously draw and come up with designs again.

    always inspiring, La C! ;d

    i remember i once typed here in your blog that what you have/do isn’t doodling, haven’t i? (*wink!*) you’ve got the niche for drawing, my dear.

    for my FAQ: * how old are you?single? married?work? school?
    * where do you live?
    oh dear, i sound like a stalker….. 🙁

    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!

    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?
