For me, when I can somehow mix my love for fashion, art, friendship, and love... when all of those elements can collide, if even for a simple project, I am truly and utterly inspired.
I made these shoes years ago, and wore them to death. They were a prefect vintage find, that I painted, and splattered (a la Jackson Pollock) with acrylic. And they so perfectly suited the random, crazy, somewhat tumultuous time in my life.
They were later devoured into bits by my dog, and I was so sad I wanted to have a funeral for them. But I'm grateful for the steps I took forward into my future while wearing these shoes... and the inspirational moment in their creation.
