And these guys started with the ever popular:

So, as you can see there’s a new layout for my blog. I decided to put it up to a poll today to see which one is preferred.

This blew me away. SO many well done, redone logos from the 80′s – great motion – beautiful!

Other than the fact that this is extremely creepy and reminiscent of a time when strangers could be good people more often than not, its also magical, beautiful, enchanting, mesmerizing, and for the first time in a very long time, I enjoyed a commercial more than a little…I enjoyed it a lot. So much, that I would like to share it with you all.

I’m not sure I would ever have the courage to wear these…because they would definitively wear me. They look like a moment in time when fabric and chain mail is being pulled through water. These shoes would not be about me, it would be about the shoes. The only thing I could do to detract from the shoes is get a great tan and wear nothing else BUT the shoes. If I WERE to wear anything, it would have to be as theatrical as the shoe…and then both would overtake me and I would look like a dumpy mannequin. Anyway, I hope I see someone wearing them who could really WEAR THEM, and not visa versa, because these are an incredible work of art. Like: Gisele Bündchen. She would TOTALLY rock these…yeah..cause shes a Brazilian supermodel…but I think that’s what it would take for this shoe. <silent sob>

WEEEEEEE!

The Nike ID Blazer website had me floored. Beautiful intro, beautiful site, fun interactive shoe propaganda. Please enjoy!

I’m sorry I don’t have my daily sketch from Sunday to today.

Work has been very demanding. Very.

Despite being cranky, I am really grateful for my job. Sketching will resume when I get some sleep. Thank you all!

Oh…

my…

gosh…

A beautiful shoe…that color, the lines…its like strapping porsche to my feet. I like how from the front it looks like a really expensive, flat, Italian business shoe and then you turn and WHAM. That Italian shoe has turned into a shaded jade column of gorgeous, just to hold up your feet. These, my friends, are anti-gravity goddess-on-the-go Oxfords. Hot DAYAM.

So wrong….but so AWESOME! Haha – this video had me laughing.

I have a thing for heeled oxfords, as you will start to see. These shoes by Madden Girl are exceptional. The photos don’t do the satin justice. Yes, SATIN shoes. (The satin was wisely removed from the heel) The red has a ruby~raspberry luster, and the purple heel and toe are a healthy plum. They are very stable shoes, which is good since they are higher than I usually like to wear, but the heel still has a great back view. Still sleek and sexy, despite being stable, the only downfall is that if I wear them as much I want to they will get scuffed easily. Satin is beautiful, but delicate.

Great video by Keith Loutit. Donnie, as usual, thanks!

Glittery starfish in my hair would be so lovely. You know mermaids do that too, right?
I wanted to share the starclip that inspired the one Squidheart was wearing.

And here are the sweeties it reminds me of…awwww! My little Sweeties are so cute. Cats can make any book a little bit better just by sitting in your lap…until they star chewing on the pages – but even then its a joy to take the ripped shreds out of their mouth and find a comfortable position where they wont reach the pages again. (Sigh) Ahhh, kitties. I am VERY glad to finally have a studio with a door due to my kitties having excellent taste. They like to chew on my most expensive brushes and pencils and hide them under couches while I am away.
Bless the day they were made without thumbs…bless the day!

I have a vision that one of these days I’m going to a whole gamut of legwarmer styles and colors to go with the hundreds of awesome shoes I will have one day. But until then, I will just look at pictures and share.

Pretty clouds!

Is she real? Thank you, Sarah, for this image – its incredible…I’ve stared at it for far too long now – and I can’t decide if she is real or not – its a strange sensation, this penumbra of thought.

I love to see vegan friendly, stylish, retro, patent shiny totes! The shape reminds me of a really plump apple that wants a hug. Its like its reaching out to me, asking me to take it home and embrace it, call it my precious and stow away my girl secrets within its pocketed and handy folds.
