My model buddy lisa invited me out to a runway show for Vancouver's Eco-Fashion Week. "It's fashion-y" she said. "Wear heels." I wore this great little wool strapless Kenzie dress and vintage choker from my sister's closet. The dress has an empire waist, front pleat and pockets. I love pockets! Then for the shoes. I was deciding between these fantastic 4 1/2" slingbacks and my comfy stack-heeled everyday boots.
And then, from seemingly nowhere, the little voice in my head piped up and said "It's February, and you're forty-seven". I zipped up the boots. The show was great. I loved Nicole Bridger (www.niclolebridger.com).
Still not talking to the voice in my head though.

Priceless! I often stop talking to the voice in my head too, although when I bought the killer heels I wish it had spoken up.
Great illustration.
The voice in my head... had me wearing flip flops today (my FAVORITE sorta shoe)... the last pair of 'heels' I owned I wore to my only daughter's wedding... her oldest daughter is 13 years old, and they waited 5 years to have kids... so 18 years ago was the last time I wore heels... no regrets... none at all
Oh la la - tres chic!! and a fantastic sketch - I have missed your sketches (and just yesterday pulled out your "how to keep a sketchbook" book - It is still the BEST!
Neat page! I bet the the outfit with boots was a knock out.
