Sketches, Shoes and Beyond

To say it ala Carrie Bradshaw "I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each other love." And luckily I felt that kind of love with my job :)
I tell myself every time I get tired or frustrated that not everyone is blessed to do what they love so I should always be grateful.

Well, despite its setbacks -- oh weekends and social life where art though? Haha. I'm just crossing my fingers that my family and friends haven't disown me yet for ditching them a couple of times the last months. It seriously wasn't a piece of cake for an itch-foot like me who often finds herself capping the day in some remote island in the Bahamas drinking Pina Colada just because she envisioned hammocks and coconut trees (well maybe not in that scale but you get the picture).


My photo journal yesterday:


Shoe-gasm: One of our clients brought these shoes during her fitting (Prada, Gucci, Christian Louboutin, Miu-Miu)



We (Anj and me) had an agreement to sketch once a day during our free time. The theme yesterday was ugly-beautiful caricature.

I love how this photo turned out.

Can I just point out that traffic is a major hell these days? The one thing I seriously hate during Christmas season. We had a client fitting appointment yesterday, the usual hour of travel turned out to be a 2 and half hour drive from Scout Fernandez to Forbes.





I was trying an editorial pose here (major fail! Haha)

Outfit:
(All thrifted)
Harem Chiffon pants
Boots
Hawaiian dress used as a top

HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY EVERYONE! :)
