Because!

 Because really, at the end of the day,
After all the shit that happens, after all the anger, frustration
And all the plans (you will never almost do) to get them back,
If awesome can't be pulled off, you just want to be okay~

In the empty moments of the day, this is how I feel~

Cause Cats Love Fashion Too ♥

Beautiful things captured on beautiful photos can rule my world anytime...and some of those beautiful photos can be seen over at SeaOfShoes.com by Jane Aldridge. It is one of my favorite blogs to read and follow.

A couple of weeks ago, I read about a contest on Jane Aldridge's blog. You are to choose to draw an outfit from any Spring 2011 collection. As I read it, I decided I had to join. I mean, I HAD to because I just saw a really cool outfit that I wanted to draw with a chic cat wearing it...in London! See her at the left part of this page? 

That top with the scarf print is  the brainchild of Marco Zanini, Creative Director for Rochas  Women's RTW Spring 2011 Collection. I love Marco Zanini's designs. Wait, scratch that. I love Marco Zanini! I love his designs. I must be honest though that I haven't heard about him before late this year and I'm in the stage of finding out more about this genius. I'm not really a fashion junkie so that explains a lot on why I don't know a lot about him (so my resolution is: get a lot of help from Vogue.com & Fashionologie! Harhar).

Anyhooo, as for the other entries, I am enjoying browsing through all of them. All the illustrations are so lovely :) I kinda passed my submission late so I'm okay not seeing mine posted on the photo pool. ALL of the entries can be found HERE
