Jun 30instant vintage : 06.2010 : …viva solo… (Superfresh)
I’m here to make music, to inspire myself. I’m not selling my likability, I’m sharing my journeys. If you don’t like it, believe it’s real, or understand it…then keep my name out of your mouth.
Solange Knowles via Refinery29. This should be the mantra of everyone everywhere. All the time.

Can we talk about the studded oxfords? Because I really want to talk about the studded oxfords. I hope I have the presence of mind and fortitude of thumbs to DIY, because lord knows I don’t have Loub’ pockets.
*sigh*

Solange only fucks with those with top-notch shoe game. I think that means I need to get my shoe game up.
Studded oxys are totally boss. There’s something very Prada about the look…Fall ’09?

It’s going to take FOREVER. I can already feel it. LOL.
I love Solange. She’s her own woman and doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her. We all should all be that way, independent free thinking spirits.
The oxfords are dope. I hear ya on the DIY tip.

I don’t know…Solo sounds like she could body someone…LOL
There is one problem with that DIY, unless you plan to wear your shoes with a very thick socks, don’t even bother, the DIY studded shoes on inside are similar to medieval torturing gadgets, the studs will skin you alive.
I hope I didn’t ruin it for you.
I like that she curses and smokes joints, not that it matters, just sounds down to earth.
Wanted Afro all my life, God wanted me blond, so I became atheist.

The iron maiden insides were a concern of mine. I’m going to have to go aboout this a bit differently because of it…or line the insides with duct tape.
P.S. – I <3 you.
Duct tape!
No, really, just glue a soft piece of leather inside the shoe when your done studding with a good contact-glue. Don’t wait for glue to dry, stick it in while it’s still wet, it makes the leather soft so you have about 30 sec to shape it.
Love back, from here to Mars and back, 10 times around.
I adore Solange and her message. She really looked fantastic in the Refinery 29 photos.
i love the quote. and i’m really digging the diy idea, hope you go through with it! every time i’ve tried a diy something gets ripped in an un-chic way. xx

DAHHHLING, you would have to basically rip that whole shoe apart to get close to the toe of that shoe. Miu Miu has a pair similar but the whole thing is covered.
An easier suggestion that won’t result in bleeding corns would be to simply buy matte crystals, Loctite super glue, and a pair of tweezers.
Solange is warming up to me, I like the direction she’s going in. Before, honestly I thought she was gonna be as much of an airhead as her sister.
