Hello Crosby :)

When I started craving these, they were already sold out at J. Crew:

But I found an eBay listing for a pair of size 7.5 Crosby lace-up peep toes in this beautiful shade of windsor grey. I normally wear 7; the eBay price was higher than J. Crew sale price (but only black left at that time)...all that didn't stop me from clicking "Buy it now", as I just couldn't afford being outbid this time. I love them as much as I do Bing Crosby; or rather, I knew I'd love them so much. Wasn't disappointed in the least! They were (two of) the best Christmas gifts for myself :)

With J. Crew Cotton cady Erica dress in fresh mint. I grabbed this garb half a year ago during a final sale for less than 50. Haven't been wearing it out though :'(
Can somebody please invite me to something, now that I have great heels to match??
They are two shades darker (I'm a prospective artist and color-sensitive, m'kay...) than I expected.
Still love them. They aren't too huge either, phew!
3 1/2" heel with interior platform really is comfortable. I can totally trot up and down the overpass (which I curse on a daily basis) in them to catch my bus. 95% of the time, I catch it ;)

Recent prints

A long artistic hiatus. Is no good for me :(
Fortunately I found someone and somewhere to pick up print-making. I hope this year painting will be back in my life too!

I can't believe it's been more than 5 years... My college drawings

Doing something about my nearly abandoned blog was one of my new year resolutions. That something didn't turn out to be deletion, because the blog is useful again thanks to someone I've acquainted with from the office, who is kind enough to be interested in my artworks from what seems like a previous life to me. You saved my blog! :p

They are old works, but this is still a fresh start, so to speak~
