Flower Power insipiration

I can't resist blooming images. I love flowers A LOT. So crazy that I once went a course hoping to learn the craft of floral arrangement so that I could open a florist shop. It would have been a quaint one, with many many blooms tastefully placed in the shop. When I saw these images, I died. 

Unfortunately, the flower arrangement course made me realise that I suck at arranging flowers and so my dreams of becoming a florist wilted almost overnight. But thankfully, I could design shoes!

Been wanting to design floral themed shoes but after running some drawings through my team in China, it was a no go. Too many details. Which means a lot of man hours. Which means high costs. Which means more expensive retail price. Since I am not Charlotte Olympia and don' draw that type of crowd yet, I guess I will have to contend with these amazing images for now.

Life is difficult but we should always always stop to smell the roses and appreciate what nature has given us.
