Inspiration

I've been lacking inspiration lately so I thought I'd share my mood boards for Cece L'amour with you incase you're feeling equally uninspired. This will give you an idea of what's to come...

I'm hoping that I can post photos of the actual shoes by tomorrow so stay tuned!!

Oh Kirkwood...

First, he shows us these for Spring...

I love these. Everything about these. (a mere $2153.70 HERE)

And then there are these for Fall.

(jak and jil blog)

In the words of Rachel Zoe... I die.

I'm dead.

I died.

I love these a lot. A LOT.

I love Kirkwood a lot. A really lot lot.

I love how these heels look like carved soap or ivory. Well, not so much ivory cause that would be pretty terrible. Not clubbing baby seals terrible but... you know. I like elephants a lot. All animals really. Well, not sharks but I don't want to KILL them either. Unless they kill people then go ahead.

Deep blogging I know, but this is what I have for you.

I've been really sick and on top of that I haven't been feeling very inspired. I also feel like I'm talking to myself for some reason. Like nobody's out there.

Ever feel like that??

Hmph.

I love you Kirkwood. Keep up the good work :)

AMAZING News!!

Good morning friends!! ;)

I'm up late working/sketching/tweeting and I came across THIS!

Bebe has a very Balmain inspired leather jacket for a LOT less than the real deal. And unfortunately, a lot less than I got mine for. Oh well.

I actually love the bebe one- it's a lot less aggressive in the shoulder padding and if you wanted a little DIY project you could add the little dangly thingies yourself ;)

The Balmain jacket (HERE at Luisaviaroma) will set you back almost $10,000... yikes.

While the bebe jacket (HERE on bebe.com) is yours for under $200!

Is it just me or does the leather actually look better on the bebe one?? Weird, right? What do you guys think?? Great deal or no?

I have done my good deed for the day. Maybe now I can sleep.

Etsy

Are you guys familiar with Etsy? Well, I'm sure most of you are but for those of you who aren't- check it out. I'm still on this whole "how to find inspiration" kick and I just wanted to mention that I love checking out what crafty people all over the world are making. 

Here's one of a million examples. Silvia's Think has a blog and an Etsy store. Cute handcrafted goodies from Italy. Then there's Susuten and their adorable little plush friends. And of course, Etsy is where I go for all my Blythe Doll clothing needs. People like Blytheworld make little handmade outfits for all my little Blythe Dolls. 

Etsy is great for creative and unique gifts and for inspiring ideas! My Blog-friend Tokyo Bunnie is often updating us on the cutest best Etsy stores so be sure to check her out! 

Enjoy!
