Miu Miu Pre Spring 12 Shoes

source: miumiu.com

To say I am in love with the latest Miu Miu shoes is a slight understatement! I am a huge magpie when it comes to glittery objects, especially when they come in shoe form! I love the gold shoes, but my favourites are the silver glitter pairs. I find myself looking at these pairs of shoes on a daily basis!

I can not believe it is Friday already! I have got a really interesting project in at the moment, so it is very true when they say time flies when you are having fun. I am really enjoying freelancing, even if it isn't the easiest fields of work to go into, as you are relying on yourself to pay those dreaded things called bills. However, I really do enjoy the challenge and the variety of work I am getting in..

New Illustration: Christian Louboutin Pigalle

First of all, here is a new illustration of mine. The iconic 'Pigalle' shoe by 'Christian Louboutin'. I personally feel this is the most iconic shoe that Christian Louboutin has ever created so far, especially in black patent. I shall be adding this to my etsy store in a few days.

Next up, which I am super excited about is that the Design Museum in London is holding the first UK's retrospective of Christian Louboutin. It will be held between the 28th March to the 1st July. I know for a fact I will be going. I love the exhibitions that the Design Museum puts on!! This exhibition will be celebrating Louboutin's career to date. There will also be an exploration of his design process, and how the shoes are constructed, from initial drawing and first prototype. Excited much?

I am a huge fan of Louboutin's, so much so I was given his book for christmas from my mum & dad. As you can imagine this topped my christmas present list. This book is absolutely amazing, not only is it rammed with shoes, it also includes stories about them which are so interesting to read.

Will you be visiting the exhibition?

Illustration: Burberry Prorsum Sandals S/S 2012

Earlier this week I entered the 'Company Magazine - Are you the next big thing in fashion illustration'. One of the illustrations we needed to enter, had to be the one of the key accessories off of the S/S 12 runways. I automatically thought of these beauties by Burberry Prosum. My only problem was, I only found out about the competition 2 days before the deadline. I wasn't entirely happy with the way they came out, but for the amount of time it took me I can not complain! You got to be in it, to win it. Right?!

What do you think?
